Sibelius compositions drew Finland s borderlines into the world map, in an age when the state of Finland had yet to attain its independence. How did this semi-orphan son of a young widow grow into a revered maestro, who rubbed shoulders with kings and presidents? And what is synesthesia, and how did it affect the composer s life? In this game, you can relive Sibelius childhood in H meenlinna and his final years in Ainola in J rvenp , join him in his studies abroad, take part in both his solitary and family travels around the world, and witness the creation of a Finnish identity for a fledgling nation. The players movements around the game board are dictated by dice-throws and governed by a set of rules, which are supplemented by a history section. This game was published for the 100th anniversary of Finnish independence in 2017.
