A little yellow fellow turns up in Barnsworth, and everything gently goes sideways.

First thing that stands out: when the community picks on gut feeling, with no thinking, Thank Goodness You're Here! lands right at the bottom, ahead of almost no other game. And yet, look at the criteria and the tone shifts. On very few votes, so take it lightly, it climbs to a decent spot when people ask which one they would dream of rediscovering for the first time, around the middle. On the desert island question it stays more modest, ahead of a fifth of the titles. That is the tension: an absurd comedy nobody elects on instinct, but whose memory might just make you want to dive back in.

Among small British humour games, it is a joyful oddity, short and singular, closer to a playable cartoon than a challenge.

So, who is it for? For you if you love being carried by offbeat humour, laughing at silly situations and savouring a mood rather than a score. Much less if you want depth, length, or a game someone recommends without hesitation.
