Narratively, We Happy Few is unfinished, but here’s what we know so far. In alternate history Great Britain, World War II didn’t go exactly as the history books tell us. Something happened in the island city of Wellington Wells that absolutely ruined the humanity of its citizens. So much, in fact, that the grand majority of the population must now take a psychotropic drug known as Joy to keep them happy, productive, and ultimately, pliant. The euphoria caused by a single dose of Joy is enough to wipe literally every negative feeling from one’s psyche, and its hallucinogenic properties are so potent that nothing in the world could threaten the mindless bliss. On top of that, everyone wears a nice, happy mask. It’s straight up creepy.
