# Mysteerilaulajat

Mysteerilaulajat (English: Mystery singers) is a Finnish television mystery music game show based on the South Korean programme I Can See Your Voice. It premiered on Nelonen on 16 October 2021.

## Gameplay
### Format

Presented with a group of seven "mystery singers", a guest artist and a contestant must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the group without ever hearing them sing, assisted by clues and a celebrity panel over the course of five rounds. At the end of a game, the last remaining mystery singer is revealed as either good or bad by means of a duet between them and one of the guest artists.
The contestant must eliminate one mystery singer at the end of each round, receiving €1,000 if they eliminate a bad singer. At the end of a game, if the contestant decides to walk away, they will keep the money had won in previous rounds; if they decide to risk for the last remaining mystery singer, they win €10,000 if a singer is good, or lose their all winnings if a singer is bad.

### Rounds

* First impression (Finnish: Ensivaikutelma) The guest artist and contestant are given some time to observe and examine each mystery singer based on their appearance.
* Lip sync (Finnish: Huulisynkronointi) Each mystery singer performs a lip sync to a song; good singers mime to a recording of their own, while bad singers mime to a recording by someone else.
* Video clue (Finnish: Vinkkivideo) The guest artist and contestant are presented with a video package containing possible clues by one of the mystery singers of their choice.
* Mystery studio (Finnish: Mysteeristudio) The guest artist and contestant are presented with video from a recording session by one of the mystery singers of their choice, but pitch-shifted to obscure their actual vocals.
* Interrogation (Finnish: Kuulustelu) The guest artist and contestant may ask questions to the remaining mystery singers. Good singers are required to give truthful responses, while the bad singers must lie.
