Minnesota? We are already considered as 'Canada lite'. But we also have a strong number of Finnish heritage living 'Up Norf'. So as a Minnesotan, I will allow it.

Land o' Lakes is/was a very old farm co-op store. They formed to buy milk from farmers and then turned it into butter and cheese. They also sold other things like feeds and fertilizers and fuels to farmers. Back in the 1970s, Land o' Lakes was merged with 3 different farm co-ops and became Cenex. I'm still a member of Cenex.

The brand name lives on in grocery stores mostly as a brand of butter.

The title screen theme is actually the Finnish national anthem

Honestly love everything about that game. But by god I will never steal money from that guy again.

Being stalked by him gives me PTSD flashbacks from that butler in Tomb Raider.

One part of the reason might be because we are so strangers to sharing our feelings by talking that the only socially acceptable way is to let them burst in the form of music.

One other reason might be the fact that regular working hours in the winter often coincide with the few hours with sun so many might go months without seeing the sun(my personal record is about 2 months)

There is a lot of things in dark woods to be fearful of.

Almost everyone there speaks English and very well. Never had any problem communicating.

Eh, they have a good school system I think and most people know English

And Wreckfest, Flatout, Rally Trophy

edit: Trials!

That is just an accurate rural finland simulator

How would you like an all expenses paid trip to Antarctica?

Buncha perkele

They own mobile games too: Supercell (clash of clans & royale, hay day, brawl stars) is Finnish SYBO Games (Subway Surfers) is Danish Rovio Entertainment (Angry Birds) is Finnish King (Candy Crush & more) is Swedish and RobTop (Geometry dash is Swedish too

The only place to rival them in classic mobile games is Australia which has Halfbrick (Fruit Ninja, Jetpack Joyride) and Hipster Whale (Crossy Road)

Oh and the Nordics are just as successful in mobile gaming with critically acclaimed mobile games: Playdead (Inside and Limbo) are Danish and Frogmind (Badland) is Finnish

Can't forget goat simulator for extra weirdness

Why hello! 🙋🏻‍♀️

I think I saw some quip by Linus Torvalds about how Finland has such long winters with nothing to do, so it's no wonder we have so many great information technology nerds.

I don't think they like to be talked to that directly.

Korpiklaani and Turisas are pretty good starts if ya like metal.

Lots of weirdly emo ballads, TBH. The metal is good, but it's still pretty niche from what I understand.

Its secret ending has a secret ending. The secret ending within the secret ending also has a secret ending.

To reach each of them you have to recontextualize what you thought the basic assumptions of game were to do something that's almost impossible.
