Helsinki is one of four original crime scene games. It is a mystery solving game that combines three main elements: 1) A modern mystery story written by professional crime writer Arttu Tuominen. 2) Searching for details in a "hidden" picture. 3) Solving more or less classic puzzles. The puzzles range from one to four cards, and from light to quite heavy.
Players can use clues to help them solve them, but this costs them reputation cards. By giving the wrong answer, players also lose a reputation card. The more reputation cards the players have left at the end of the game, the easier it is for them to follow the "hint" found on the remaining cards, and finally choose the right option in the "Final Choice". The high age recommendation comes from some graphic details in the story. These details can be ignored by parents playing with their children (12+), as long as they are aware that these details exist in the game.
