Ever wondered what the next big indie game might feel like?

Forget polished perfection and step into the raw energy of tomorrow’s games.
At the Espoo Game LAB Game Corner, a new generation of game developers are dropping their freshest builds for you to test-drive — from story-driven adventures to experimental gameplay experiences.

Hosted by Espoo Game LAB (EGL), the Game Corner brings together up-and-coming teams, including developers from EGL’s 2024 and 2025 cohorts and other rising talents.

Join us on Friday and Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00 at the Gilda Theatre lobby to meet the creators, explore their work, and get a firsthand glimpse of the ideas shaping the future of Finland’s game industry.

Play. Connect. Create. Be part of the next wave of game innovation!

Espoo Game LAB
Espoo Game LAB (EGL), located in Otaniemi, Espoo, is at the heart of a broader initiative to boost the number, quality, cooperation, and employment readiness of small and medium-sized Finnish game companies. At EGL, selected participants develop their games – and themselves – in a professional, collaborative environment.

The main goal of the project is to create a sustainable framework for the growth of new game industry businesses in the Capital Region, while strengthening Finland’s position as a world-class centre of expertise in the game industry. EGL is part of the Game Hub for SMEs in the Capital Region project, co-funded by the European Union.
