Born from a pandemic.
Built for the world.
TAQA Entertainment is an independent entertainment studio at the intersection of gaming, culture, and lifestyle. Founded in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, the company pivoted from music into mobile game development with no prior experience, and built Oli's Congo River Run from the ground up using a team of artists, animators, and engineers, many of whom joined without the promise of pay.
"His story became our story. We built something from nothing and released it anyway."
The result was Oli's Congo River Run 2, which has since surpassed 1.5 million downloads, earned a 5-star rating across platforms, and built a global audience spanning the U.S., UK, India, Bangladesh, Brazil, the Philippines, Pakistan, Africa, and France. The game is free to play, family-safe, and available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play.
TAQA's Trans IP strategy extends the Oli Universe beyond gaming into books, apparel, and merchandise through The Shoppe at TAQA Entertainment. A companion book, Oli's Congo Adventures, is available on Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play Books. Oli's Congo River Run 3 is currently in development.
