Cultural references

The video game My Summer Car features a fictional village shop named Teimon Kauppa which bears a strong resemblance to former village store Sepon Kauppa (lit. Seppo's Shop; closed in 2013) located in Yttilä. Developer Johannes Rojola confirmed the shop was used as inspiration in 2017.[4][5]
