About This GameIMPORTANT: As the game is in Early Access phase, please read
carefully the Early Access disclaimer before buying the game to make
sure it matches your expectations.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. Set in a
drug-fuelled, retrofuturistic city in an alternative 1960s England,
you’ll have to blend in with its other inhabitants, who don’t take
kindly to people who don’t abide by their not-so-normal rules."Right out of an Orwellian nightmare" - IGN***What is available in the Early Access game so far:***1960s Dystopian EnglandSet
in a retrofuturistic 1960s, you will find a city ravaged by war and
rebuilt by delusionally happy people. Everything appears to be happy in
Wellington Wells, including the roads, the people, and its omnipresent
television personality, Uncle Jack! However, it’s a beautiful world on
the brink of collapse. You will discover the history of this world, and
how it came to be just so beguilingly happy.Suspicion and JoyWe
Happy Few is about surviving in and escaping from a procedurally
generated world, where you must learn to hide in plain sight. If you act
out of turn, or you’re not on Joy (the local happy pills), 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.Play it your way:fill your basic needs (hunger, thirst, and sleep) to survive,learn how to interact with the other members of your society, and choose stealth, conformity or combat,encounter dozens of in-game unique events,conform to the specific local habits by learning to behave accordingly, and taking your Joy,collect recipes, scavenge items and craft dozens of weapons, tools and devices,fight with your bare hands or the crazy weapons you create, andwatch out for traps, or learn how to use them to your advantage."A mad, mad world to explore, made anew every time" - iDigitalTimes***What will be available only at full release:***A Mature StoryWe
Happy Few’s characters are not typical video game heroes. They are
flawed and not particularly heroic, warped by the trauma their world has
been through. Each character has their own storyline that reacts to the
events of the world around them, and their place within it. Our stories
are definitely not appropriate for children, but are laced with dark
humour, hope, and even a spot of redemption.In the final version of We Happy Few, you will experience:a procedurally generated world, meaning that everyone’s experience will be unique,a range of difficulties for new and experienced players alike,permadeath, if you want to satisfy all your masochistic needs,three modes: sandbox, story and Wellie mode,a unique soundtrack, anda fully voiced, cinematic, first person story."Visually unmistakable and genuinely amusing" - The Guardian
