What kind of beast The Heart of Africa: Expedition of 1890 is: rules, tricks and a few tips

The igrasu.ru catalog holds hundreds of games, and this is one people keep coming back to. Here is how it works and how to get the most out of it.

What this game is

"The Heart of Africa" — a walking expedition across a procedural Africa, right in your browser. The continent is built from real geographic data (a digital elevation model): deserts, savannas, rivers and living villages under a day-night cycle. You set out from Cairo in 1890 with 250 dollars and a bundle of trade gifts to find the fabled tomb of the great king — trek on foot, trade at the ports, and keep a journal of the journey. Fully procedural 3D graphics on WebGPU with a WebGL2 fallback, not a single downloaded asset. Russian and English localization, with touch controls.
