Charming presentation, colorful writing, and powerful environmental storytelling are highlights that are unfortunately eclipsed by a shallow open world. Tedious exploration courtesy of poorly-designed environments and underdeveloped survival mechanics detract from an otherwise strong main adventure. We Happy Few is an ambitious open-world survival game that does not benefit from being one. I'll play more polished, bigger and more bombastic blockbuster games this year, but We Happy Few will stay with me long after its quests are over. If you're prepared to stomach the game's less appetising sections, you'll still get a little Joy out of We Happy Few. But the fact remains that this adventure is one that could have used a bit more refinement. If you can muster the strength to get past its janky gameplay, there's a whole lot to love here in the world and characters. We Happy Few is going to go down as a cult hit. In its launch state, however, We Happy Few pleases the eyes and ears, but much like the fictional drug it features, the Joy is great… until it wears off. Game Revolution - Mack Ashworth - 3 / 5 stars We Happy Few delivers an intoxicating experience, rife with dark mysteries to unravel and exciting missions to complete, but some annoying mechanics and scarce resources keep it from reaching greatness And that's the biggest downer of all.Įurogamer - Edwin Evans-Thirlwell - No RecommendationĪn ambitious, stylish and savage takedown of British hubris, but clunky crafting, collecting and combat make for a somewhat dull game. By choosing the fastidious "micro-management" path, We Happy Few distracts far too much from its true potential as a dystopian gaming classic. But the game is what matters, and it is sadly lackluster in that regard, with bad combat, mundane stealth, and endless, frivolous mechanics. It features gorgeous environments, great music, twisted humor, and a magnetic story. However, it also offers a totally unique world full of interesting characters and places.īoomstick Gaming - Deadite AGK - 6.4 / 10.0 It's certainly far from perfect, with questionable stealth mechanics, sometimes derivative gameplay, and a lack of polish that intrudes on the fun. We Happy Few is a game of high highs and low lows.
