Nähdään kellon alla!
DescriptionThis is a trivia game about Finland's capital city Helsinki. There are 8 categories of questions: Restaurants & Nightlife, Culture & Sports, History, Streets & Places, Buildings & Statues, Companies & Institutions, Outside Helsinki and Infrastructure & Nature. Every player chooses a different starting place/category from where they will start to slowly travel towards the spot "Under the clock". You can choose one of the eight categories and that means that you have one more question from the chosen category than other categories, and the starting places are otherwise asymmetric too; for example, a player who's more knowledgeable in the restaurant scene might want to take the route through Eira, while someone who's used to moving about outside of the actual city centre might want to start in the district of Sörnäinen. All question cards have a hard and an easy question. If you choose the hard question and get it right then you get to the next place and you can go on. If you choose the easy question and get it right then you get to the next place, but your turn is over. If your answer is not right, you won't get forward at all, so the only way to progress in the game is to know (or guess) the trivia correctly. Winner is the first player to get "Under the Clock". "Nähdään kellon alla" (or, in it's full form, "Nähdään Stockan kellon alla") is a Helsinki saying and means "See you under the [Stockmann] clock". The clock in question is the overhanging clock by the main entrance of the Stockmann department store, which has been a city landmark and a well-known meeting point in Helsinki since 1965. Thematically, the players have agreed to meet each other "Under the clock" and the first one to arrive made it in time, while the others will be late. The game is fully Finnish/Swedish bilingual on purpose, down to every single detail; this is stressed out in the rules, to emphasize Helsinki as a bilingual city with both of the official languages of Finland, Finnish and Swedish. A version of the game set in Tampere, the second biggest city of Finland was published in 2017: Nähdään Kosken Rannassa, and one set in Turku, the former capital and now the third biggest city of Finland, in 2019; Nähdään Täl Pual Jokke.
