About We Happy Few

✦ AI summary

Escape a drug-fueled dystopian 1960s England by hiding, fighting, or conforming to maintain your cover in the artificially cheerful city of Wellington Wells. Play through three interconnected stories with procedurally generated worlds, crafting weapons and choosing your own path through dark humor and rebellion in this constantly shifting survival experience.

We Happy Few is the tale of a plucky bunch of moderately terrible people trying to escape from a lifetime of cheerful denial in the city of Wellington Wells. In this alternative 1960s England, conformity is key. You’ll have to fight or blend in with the drug-addled inhabitants, most of whom don’t take kindly to people who won’t abide by their not-so-normal rules.

Discover the retrofuturistic city’s dark history as you play through the intertwined narratives of three quietly rebellious citizens of Wellington Wells, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, as they face their pasts, prepare for the future, and engage in activities that aren’t exactly status quo in the artificially enthused society.

Retrofuturistic 1960s England
Set in retrofuturistic 1960s England, you will find a city ravaged by war and rebuilt by delusionally happy people. Everything appears joyful in Wellington Wells, including its roads, its people, and its omnipresent television personality: Uncle Jack! But, it’s actually a world on the brink of collapse. Come unveil its dark history, and discover how and why its residents came to be so beguilingly happy.

Three Interwoven Narratives
Play as three flawed characters who explore their own connections to the events surrounding the rebuilding of Wellington Wells. They each have a unique storyline in which they interpret and react to the events around them in different ways. As you hide, conform, or fight back as each of them, you will encounter dark humour, a spot of hope, and even some redemption along the way.

A Dystopia of Your Very Own
In We Happy Few, no two playthroughs are alike. While the citizens of Wellington Wells will always want to ensure that you’ve taken your Joy, the procedurally generated world will ensure that your experience with We Happy Few is different and unique. Wellington Wells is never quite like you remember it.

Take Your Joy…or Don’t. The Choice is Yours
Customize your We Happy Few experience:
• Choose from a range of difficulties for new and experienced players alike,
• Masochistic? Try permadeath!,
• Collect recipes, scavenge items, and craft dozens of weapons, tools, and devices,
• Creep, crush, or conform your way through puzzles and encounters, and
• Fight with the crazy weapons you can craft, or fight with your bare hands and don’t kill anyone!

Fun and charming experience. The premise and world itself is extremely interesting, but it could have been better presented in some places. I'd be quite interested to learn what the rest of the world looked like and why Britain never interacted with another country ever again. Or at least learn what the Germans' whole goal was and what they did after. It does make an amusing commentary on authoritative takeover and metaphorically predicting how some people would handle something like Covid when the wrong people are in power. The choice to split the story among three different characters could have been executed better. There are parts where each character meets another and the scenes don't line up or look very different when done with a different character, it makes the story feel disconnected. But the good parts of the approach is you get to see more of this ridiculous world through different events that one person wouldn't have gone through all. I'm glad they explored Uncle Jack's story at the end, but I wish it had more to it. And then having the final DLC add in an extra layer and keep things tied together was nice, but it was still hard to believe all these events could be h…

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

The Tormented Souls price has not budged in six weeks of our readings. What that means for buying it, and whether the 2025 sequel is the better purchase instead.
