Operaatio Hurrikaani

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Operaatio Hurrikaani (Operation Hurricane) is an interactive combination of a television show and a website that has been produced by YLE (Finnish Broadcasting Company). It aired on Yle TV2 from 2006 to 2010.[1] Its anticipated target audience is 7–12 year olds.

Plot

[edit]

Puuma (Puma) is a young individual who leads a double life; everybody thinks he is studying to become a teacher, but he is a top secret agent. He has to fight against Tohtori Routa (Dr. Freeze) and his evil plans.[2] Puuma gets help from his curious aunt Sirkku, from an older agent Postimies and from a beautiful and hardworking girl agent Kleopatra.

How it works

[edit]

Each week the TV-show has a drama episode, which ends with a question and three alternatives.

After that kids can log on to the website and help Puuma by giving their answer. Doing so they earn themselves a new mini-game, which they can use to train their skills as a secret agent. They also have an avatar, which can be modified by changing clothes, hair styles and spy gear.

Then on the TV-show at the following week, the correct answer for the question is shown.

There is a prize draw for all participating agents. The winners are shown as the avatars they have created online in the weekly TV show.
