With neutral tones and patterns inspired by fabric artisans of West Africa, add ambiance and style to any space with the Okuta Lamp!

- Wallu Woven Basket – Bring beauty into your Sims’ home with a rich piece of West African heritage: a Wolof basket! The Wallu (meaning to help out in Wolof) is traditionally crafted by the Wolof people in Senegal. These baskets are known for their blends of colors and intricate patterns.
- Hiwe Area Rug – A skillfully woven rug with a modern design and warm colors, brings your Sims’ space together with a touch of history and tradition. Hiwe, meaning to support or to ground in Igbo, is crafted using time-honored techniques, adding character and comfort to any room.

Flavors from the African continent
Your Sims can now cook Jollof Rice with a side of Chicken Drumsticks, a beloved dish with regional variations across countries like Senegal, Nigeria, and Ghana. This one-pot meal of long-grain rice, vegetables, spices and meat is rich and flavorful, perfect for parties and celebrations.
For the chefs that love bold aromatics, style your Sims’ kitchen with this decor object, a Trio of Flavor, presented in natural wooden bowls. Each ingredient found in the bowls plays a role in West African cuisine; the nutritious and versatile Bambara bean with its mild taste, the tiny Guinea cubeb brings a fresh, fruity heat, and pods containing grains of paradise that deliver a bold warmth with hints of ginger and cardamom.
In other EA news, the publisher has sought to quell concerns, as it notes that the acquisition planned by the Saudi-backed group won’t impact EA’s creative control.
