Trivia

• Pekka-Lifehack is inspired by Niksi-Pirkka, a lifehack section in a Pirkka magazine published by a major Finnish grocery chain Kesko, which contains customer-submitted lifehacks, many of them being funny or questionable. This company also uses Pirkka brand on its grocery products, consequently in-game a product under Pekka brand can also be bought at O-Market - the Pekka Coffee.
