Yogscast :
Bristol, United Kingdom — December 3, 2024 | News just in - it turns out Heaven is a place on Earth. In fact, it’s in a cartoon adventure game called The Holy Gosh Darn. In their sparkly new trailer, Yogscast Games and Perfectly Paranormal reveal the glowing praise their apocalyptic action-adventure title has garnered.
“The Holy Gosh Darn is absolutely on-point: it’s brilliantly written, it looks fantastic, and it’s a joy to play” said GameSpew, who scored The Holy Gosh Darn a time-stopping 9/10. Numerous other critics were quick to agree, with many awarding the comical Metroidvania-style game a 9/10 or higher. Mirror Gaming found it to be ‘witty’ and ‘slick’, while the Norwegian National Broadcaster (NRK) went so far as to call it “one of the best Norwegian games ever”. Many were particularly delighted with the return of Manual Samuel’s character Death. Who knew the literal Grim Reaper could be so popular?!
Don’t just take their expert, highly trustworthy word for it - you can play The Holy Gosh Darn for yourself on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch or on PC via Steam. Step into the angelic shoes of Cassiel and harness the power of time travel with your very own golden stopwatch in order to save the world. Created by Yogscast Games and Perfectly Paranormal, this divine comedy introduces hilarious new characters, including more than 4,000 dogs, and messes with the very fabric of reality.
"The Holy Gosh Darn is a brilliant time loop comedy that is as mechanically engaging as it is hysterical." - 9.7/10, Forever Classic Games.
