DAR ES SALAAM

A dystopian re-imagination of Dar Es Salaam, where homes lean and crumble, streets are fractured, and a train station tilts dangerously into shadow.

Sands of Time VR sheds light on the quiet but universal impact of extractive destruction. Listening to stories from within and beyond the continent affirmed how deeply this issue connects us and why those voices deserve to be heard.

Producer

Ibukun "Ibkay" Oladeinde

One of the most memorable parts of producing Sands of Time has been creating this world alongside Africans of different nationalities. Seeing their ideas merge into a single unfolding story has been a rare and beautiful experience.

Sands of Time is the largest VR world I have worked on yet. It is highly ambitious and it stretched me but it was worth it. I hope everyone enjoys playing it as much as we enjoyed building it.
