About

We Happy Few is a survival roguelike, where you must learn to hide in plain sight among the Joy-happy citizens of Wellington Wells. If you act out of turn, or they notice you’re not on Joy, the locals will become suspicious and will rapidly turn your frown upside down! Forcefully. You will need to practice conformity, stealth and combat if you want to survive long enough to escape.

    We Happy Few is a fantastic game but is not without its flaws. The combat and stealth leave you wanting that little bit more. Stealth, combat and crafting have a lot of potential but are implemented very minimalistically. The game manages to save itself through the delivery of an incredibly unique and almost magical world that will quickly make you forget about the shortcomings. From the spooky Bobbies to the drugged up citizens.

    I am so incredibly disappointed with We Happy Few. I wanted so, SO much to enjoy it but I can’t even bring myself to play through the other two characters’ campaigns. The game as a whole is not horrible, don’t get me wrong. There are some genuinely great moments, but with a $60 (AAA game price tag) and $20 Season Pass, I expected a lot more than this. This feels more like a $30 game to be completely honest. It makes me wonder why and how it was released in the state it is in. I wouldn’t recommend buying this game unless it is on a really good sale or when, and if, they issue a huge patch to fix all the glitches and crashes that make We Happy Few so disappointing to play.
