We Happy Few is an action-adventure survival horror game played from a first-person perspective. Set in a retro futuristic city in an alternative 1960s England, you’ll have to blend in with its other inhabitants, who have their own set of not-so-normal rules as you try to escape the fictional city of Wellington Wells - a crumbling dystopia on the verge of societal collapse, due to the overuse of a hallucinogenic drug that keeps its inhabitants blissfully unaware about the truth of their world, while leaving them easily manipulated and lacking morals. The game features three different playable characters, each with their own story arcs that intersect throughout the game. We Happy Few is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Mac, and PC. Take a look at our tips to get help in the game.

To get the Enjoy the View achievement/trophy you must correctly sabotage Clive Birtwhistle's redactor work. You will be able to do this at the beginning of the game after you have completed redacting and are able to leave the office.
As you go down the hallway you will see a door on the right side that will have a folder jammed in it. You need to open this door and go to Clive's Redactor machine in order to approve or censor three files. If you approve the first document and censor the other two you will unlock the achievement/trophy.
To get the You Do Know Jack achievement/trophy you need to collect all Uncle Jack Shows. These accumulate across playthroughs and if you are experiencing difficulty getting any of them you need to try another character. Listed below are the times of the shows and also the episodes in the order they appear in the Theater, there are 45 in total. You can check the ones you already collected in the main menu under 'Theater'.

Once you have obtained the 'Not in Kansas Any More' achievement/trophy you will get access to red phone booths which will allow you to take Joy, a psychoactive drug that enables you to forget bad memories and stay happy. Save the game and then go into one of these red phone booths three times to overdose on Joy. When you exit the phone booth for the third time you will start coughing butterflies which is indication that you are overdosing. While overdosing run to the nearest people you can find and annoy them to the point where they kill you. Providing you are killed while overdosing on Joy you will unlock the achievement/trophy.

You will be able to get a phenocyline jab at lud's Holm, the Bobby (policeman) on guard at the bridge will give you a phenocyline jab. Once you have taken the phenocyline jab the achievement/trophy will become unlocked.
To get the Arthur Haste-ings achievement/trophy you must take Phlash as Arthur. Phlash in We Happy Few will increase your speed by 25%, not only when running but also when walking, and it can be found in most vending machines in the game.
