The narrative nature of We Happy Few is a major departure from the game’s origins, when developer Compulsion Games was styling it as a roguelike survival adventure. > Fortunately, Compulsion’s mid-development change to We Happy Few seems to have paid off. The 90 minutes that I played of it shows great promise. It’s more than just a game with a sense of style somewhere in the vicinity of BioShock and Dishonored, spiced up with British mod flair — it’s an intriguing, dystopian world that feels fascinatingly retro.
