The 1st Early Access version contains 4 weeks of military service, meaning over 20 hours of scripted gameplay content! The Purpose? To provide a realistic but humorous experience of the Finnish Military Service (conscription, “intti”) around the year 2011. We want you to feel nostalgic! RK-69 (pun intended), M05, hazing / bullying (“simputus”), NBC Alarms (“suojeluhälytys”)… Training includes conscript favorites such as NBC gear leak testing with tear gas. And fire training with napalm, as well as the ever-present cooper test. The Catch? The player can relate to the content if she/he has been through the Finnish Army. Strong language, black humor, strict guidelines, repetitive tasks, simple core mechanics are the heart of the game. Spend your on-base days going to endless lectures, learning basic discipline and marching drill. Remember those good old “track and field” type of games? How about “Tony Hawk” games? This game will feature a lot of mechanics that many will remember from their childhood. Furthermore, RPG elements like dialogues, inventory, player stats, free roaming, skill trees etc. will provide additional depth to the gameplay. Many facets of training are included as minigames. Orienteering, combat training (“taisteluammuntaharjoitus”) and military drill (“sulkeisjärjestysharjoitus”) among them. Marching in time with your fellows has been a staple of military training since Napoleonic times. By the 2000’s, this hasn’t changed in Finnish armed service. You’ll be surprised how little else has. The Story? The game will have a “meta plot”. The player will be able to reveal army secrets that shouldn’t be commonly known. The player also maintains connection to the outside world by watching TV news and participating in activities during the weekend holidays which both will affect the gameplay. Count how many precious days of service remain with an in-game morning comb. Other inseparable aspects of Finnish military service, such as tent stove duty, roundabout group punishment and “intti slang” are brought vividly to life. Even in the unlikely event that a Finn knows nothing else about military service, the two things they are likely to know are that the jam doughnuts in the canteen are delicious and cheap, and that the coffee is undrinkable. There are things that some conscripts cannot live without that cannot be bought in the soldier home. Tins of Swedish snus, for example, may be bought from platoon mates.
