Well, Finnish game dev apparently topped the list of wealthiest companies a few years ago. Which is kind of funny with national gambling government monopoly.
How is it “funny”?
There’s a world of difference with those three small added letters in the word “mbl”.
Gaming and gambling are nowhere near the same, no matter how much RAY has made their fruit machines resemble games.
Finnish Army Simulator and it’s more of a humouristic game afaik.
Max Payne is Finnish. So is Alan Wake. Unsure about how Finnish the sequels are, but at least these are in a different class than the sort of indie/small games you list.
I had no idea what gambling is like, never felt anything towards it. I thought it’s like playing casual games but you can’t do it without pants on and also you lose money.
Sure there are way more Finnish games; I just like small indie games more (unless it’s Morrowind), thus they were on top of my head.
And Liero was a regular game at its time, all were small and indie. Luanti on the other hand is a big one.
For some of that dark gameplay that’s also small and indie, but also Finnish, there’s Fear and Hunger along with it’s sequel. I recommend you defeat the literal lohikäärme in it, but prepare by getting gnome eggs to feed it.

Wow, looks cool, thanks!
The dude on wiki screenshot of a sequel is a statue of 3-handed traffic cop in Espoo, sweet!
