Has there ever been an RPG based on old African or Native American themes?

I was just thinking about this.

It's historically been medieval European type stuff, sometimes East Asian, and occasionally space-age stuff.

Or is there something buried in the history of PC games that I haven't come across?

Why wouldn't there be?
Maybe they would want to explore somewhat different themes in a game for once?

I mean Ages of Empire had some nice Native American campaigns but that's a strategy game.

There's hardly any black video characters, so there's really not gonna be any stories based on Africa

A black video game company would have to make the RPG based on African themes, white and japanese studios would have us looking :aicmon: Japanese studios especially.

What about Native American, tho?

They can't make something out of all that Aztec warrior and deity stuff?

Sir, havn't played it in a minute but I do remember Final Fantasy 7 having that tribe of lions that were clearly based on (or at least influenced by) Native American culture. That's the only thing I can think of..
