Early Steam Reviews

Thank Goodness You're Here! has "Overwhelmingly Positive" user reviews on Steam as of press time.

"A deeply strange little novelty, both a love letter to British small towns and a scathing satire of them," Steam user Alexander Hammil says in a Steam review. "It's a gentle platform puzzler about perverts, weirdos, and pasties."

"Thank Goodness You're Here! is a parody of various English stereotypes and culture," user overthequill says in a separate review. "The humour is going to land if you're from the UK or have ever lived there and is probably hit-or-miss if you don't fit into either of those categories."

"A lot of the humour is visual gags, but there's plenty of clever wordplay and zingers that are quintessentially British and without context will be lost on international audiences," overthequill adds.
