Pähee VR Escape Game

When

Published in 2021

Where

Unity, for Oculus Quest. The VR game design was commissioned by an EU funded project, where the coding and art is done by 3D Talo.

What

The game is designed as a drug education tool for youth work, aiming to provide new, fresh perspectives for the end-users. The target group of the game is 15-19-year-old teenagers.
In the Pähee VR game, a team of 2-3 players enters a shady apartment, following their friend to a house party. Finding out that their friend is in trouble with a hostile dealer, they find themselves locked inside the apartment. Time is running out and the route to escape has to be figured out, but first, they’ll need to find their friend.

My responsibilities

    • Game design
      • Game progression, puzzle design, game documentation, testing, design facilitation with the youth group
    • Narrative design
      • Structural story design, backstory writing, dialogue writing, character design
    • Level design
      • Level layout design

The team

Sampsa Kuha from 3D Talo did the technical implementation and art of the game.
