A great trailer

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.

This looks like a really fun game and it runs on linux.

Have you played it?

It was an early access game which is now closed for the moment, so nope have not played it. Seems that it will be around £50 so I won't be playing it for a while after it is released. Looks fab though.

Last month, the Australian Classification Board refused to give We Happy Few a rating, arguing against its depictions of violence and drug use. (In case it’s not clear, these are major themes the game attempts to explore.) This decision meant it would effectively be banned in the country, barring a new decision.

Thankfully, that decision has arrived. The ACB has now decided to granted the title an R18+ rating, which should allow for many happy gamers.

We Happy Few no longer banned in Australia, gains R18+ rating

Not long until it's available on consoles (10th August 2018)! It's a shame it won't be playable in VR, from the gameplay it looks like it would be great fun
