Batswana Spent Over P600 Million on Online Games This Year. But Almost None of That Went to Local Developers.
And most of it went to gambling platforms we didn’t build, don’t own, and can’t profit from.
Meanwhile, aspiring digital creators - the ones who actually want to build something real - are being priced out, left out, or drowned in “tech hustle” noise that doesn’t lead anywhere.
At Logsandtabs, we decided to do something about it.
We’re launching Platform Play Academy - a new 3-month builder program for anyone in Botswana who wants to launch their own digital game using the infrastructure we’ve already built.
This is not about gambling.
This is not about coding bootcamps.
This is about giving people a clear, compliant, affordable way to create and own something that runs online - and earns online.
What You’ll Learn:
How to design and build chain-style browser games (like ChainPicks - play.logsandtabs.com)
How to use our dev starter kit (PHP, JS, MySQL - no AI, no gimmicks)
How to monetize using AdSense, PayPal, or in-game perks
How to host on Platform Play or your own custom domain
How to stay compliant with Botswana Gambling Authority laws (yes, we cover this too)
Why It Matters:
In an economy where jobs are shrinking and digital platforms are dominating attention, building something that runs while you sleep isn’t a luxury - it’s a survival strategy.
This program doesn’t require a CS degree.
It doesn’t require investors.
It just requires commitment - and a willingness to learn how digital platforms are actually built.

Format: 2 sessions/month
Cost: P250/month ($18.23)
