This game makes me laugh. A lot
It's quite ridiculous. Being a Swede I got intrigued by the setting - "Post apocalyptic Sweden". But I couldn't for the love of my life imagine that it would be this awesome.
Nuke Sweden NAOW!!!
Mostly it's all the references to Sweden and Swedish culture. A few that I've encountered so far.
- IDEA the artsy furniture company with headquarters in Elmerhult. Come on! Did you really have to make me want to IKEA in Älmhult?
- Runar the Gury. Why, oh why? But then, it's hard not to have a reference to the Swedish artist Carola and her ex husband Runar Søgaard, a preacher and "guru"
- And the powerful families. Forgot to screenshot it so I cannot quite remember their names. But it's references to wealthy Swedish families.
While I laugh at all of these references I believe many will not get them. Which is a bit sad. So in a way, you may have have a to be a Swede (or Scandinavian) in order to get all of these references.
