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.
