I used to play this game a lot with my brother in the early 2000s, and it has a great nostalgic value to me. However, even I have to face the fact that there appears to be scant reliable sources about this game.
The current sources include: wikis, self-published sources, unreliable reviews, and a bunch of dead links.
I tried to search for additional sources and was unable to come up with anything.
It's time to have a discussion about this game. :) Coin945 (talk) 03:32, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

- Keep Oh my! Good ol' Liero. I found a couple of pretty reliable sources mentioning it in passing at least:
- https://www.aamulehti.fi/kulttuuri/muistatko-viela-nama-suomalaiset-klassikkopelit-nama-100-paasevat-tampereen-tulevaan-pelimuseoon-24144926/

- https://books.google.ch/books?id=wplcAwAAQBAJ&pg=PT41&dq=suomen+pelit+liero&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiLqves6uHZAhVSVWMKHWHMD7wQ6AEINjAC#v=onepage&q=suomen%20pelit%20liero&f=false
- http://vapriikki.fi/pelimuseo-2/pelit/
- Most likely the following would also mention it if a copy could be found/borrowed?
- Comment I want to add some sources here that I have found - it is strange to me that the game is so popular while it seems very hard to locate adequate sourcing. Due to that paradox I spent a bit of time digging deeper to find bits and pieces. Not sure if it's enough just yet.--Coin945 (talk) 14:36, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
