During the Nordic Game Week, thousands of players participated in the Big Bang Legends Speedrun Challenge in local events across the Nordic Countries.
The Challenge was played with tablets, smartphones and even a few wall-sized touchscreens! The skill-level of the players varied a lot. The slowest times were over two minutes, while the fastest times were less than 50 seconds!
Some local events reported that none of the players wanted to participate in the raffle, even though they participated in the Speedrun Challenge. We think, it is a good sign that people have learned to value their privacy and are not giving out their contact information. Still almost 400 players participated in the Trip to CERN Raffle.
The Ten Fastest Players
So, who won? First a word about the way this tournament was organized. We wanted to make sure people who participated in smaller local events could have a chance to win a prize. This means that we only accepted the best time from each event and we are sending a prize to the best player in 10 local events.
As a result it is possible for 2nd and 3rd place winners in your local events (especially if your event had a lot of players) to have faster times than the best times on this TOP 10 list. But enough talk, here are the best times!

Excursion to CERN winner!
Each venue provided the number of participants on their Trip to CERN Raffle list and each venue received an equal number of tickets in the raffle. The tickets were given consecutive numbers and the winner for the Trip to CERN was then selected randomly by using a random number generator.
The Random number generated was 24, which meant the winning Venue was Jyväskylän Veturitallit and the 6th name on their Raffle list – Juuso – is our winner!
We’ve contacted Juuso to plan the trip during the coming year and we will keep you updated on how the Visit to CERN is going!
That’s it!
Thank you all once again for a great Nordic Game Week!
Hey, I just wanted to mention, that my time was actually 0.43,278, so a half a second faster than what is displayed here. Anyway, it was a fun game to speedrun, and I’m glad I won 🙂
