Thank Goodness You’re Here! is a unique and absurd interactive sketch show style game that takes players on a bizarre journey through the fictional Yorkshire town of Barnsworth. Developed by Yorkshire developers Coal Supper, the game combines 1970s stereotypes with modern-day caricatures, creating a colorful and hilarious world where everything costs 10 bob, cigarettes are delicious, and intelligent mice roam the streets. The game’s humor and art style are reminiscent of alternative British comedy, making it a must-play experience for fans of irreverent humor.

Players take on the role of a traveling salesman in Barnsworth, where they encounter a series of bizarre and nonsensical tasks and interactions with the town’s eccentric residents. From helping a pseud with his arm trapped in a drain to fixing a deep-fat fryer to feed chips to a cow, players are faced with absurd challenges that lead to unexpected and satisfying conclusions. The game’s lack of a traditional storyline allows for inconsequential and inspired snippets of comedy that linger in players’ minds long after the game is over.

Despite some performance issues on the Nintendo Switch, Thank Goodness You’re Here! shines in its writing and voice acting, particularly from the talented cast that brings Barnsworth’s odd characters to life. The game’s all-star voice cast, led by the hilarious Matt Berry, enhances the immersive and comedic experience, ensuring that players are fully engaged in the game’s absurd and entertaining world. The game’s hands-off guidance allows for a sense of freedom while still guiding players through the narrative with small victories and moments of humor.

Thank Goodness You’re Here! offers a unique and memorable experience that will leave players laughing and entertained. The game’s mix of surreal comedy, quirky tasks, and colorful characters make it a standout indie game that pushes the boundaries of British humor. Despite its linear structure and occasional technical issues, the game’s charm and humor make it a must-play for anyone looking for a light-hearted and fun gaming experience. Whether playing on PC, PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch, players can immerse themselves in the bizarre world of Barnsworth starting on August 1, Yorkshire Day.
