I am starting to read my book that I bought in Helsinki about sauna. The first page explains the simple process:

  1. Get hot in Sauna
  2. Sweat born in sauna cleans the body from inside out
  3. Cool down by rolling in snow or going for icy dip
  4. Refreshes mind and body, creating a feeling of being reborn.

Very contrasty.

So how to make a game out of that?

  • Find different saunas around the world to go to.
  • Sweating in the sauna gives you points.
  • Repeated sessions gives more points.
  • Sessions unlock places to go to.

Why make a game about sauna?

  • Video games are a good medium to explore, learn and to a certain bit escape.
  • The Wellness industry is massive, and is growing.
  • Its a safe space where everyone is accepted as they are.

So I think I need to go to Tampere to study this more.
