Imagine if things had gone differently in World War II. We Happy Few isn’t the first piece of media to portray an alternate reality following the events of World War II, but it does offer one of the more interesting takes on a 1960’s post-war Brittain.
Set in the seemingly perfect world of Wellington Wells – where all the citizens wander around with beaming smiles on their faces – players will need to try and escape from this hellish place, while also uncovering its secrets, and those of the drug that’s making everyone so maniacally happy and oblivious to the horrors surrounding them, Joy. Survival-based gameplay is at the heart of the experience, with stealth often your best option for succeeding in your quest to get to the bottom of We Happy Few’s mysteries. This is not an easy adventure, though, so to give you a helping hand, we’ve put together this handy We Happy Few wiki to guide you through everything from the basics, to things you might have missed, and everything in between.
Please note, this guide is a work-in-progress and will continue to be updated as we dive deeper into We Happy Few. Be sure to check back soon for more guides, or sound off in the comments with a question and we’ll do our best to get you an answer.
