Cute cheap relaxing city-builder with fixed progression, limited depth, charming visuals, gentle pace, disappointing ending.

A cute and extremely casual city sim. It's nice if you just want to chill. It's impossible to lose because there are no time constraints, just some tasks to fulfill at your leisure. Your zombies don't even need food because they can apparently just subsist off of "fun" once you build a circus. For me, the menu elements usually covered some parts of the map, which was annoying because it made some areas inaccessible, but one time, without me changing the graphics settings, it didn't do that, so I'm not sure what's going on. It's an old game. The Happy Hereafter is very similar to The Promised Land, except that The Promised Land is much better designed in virtually all aspects, so I felt a bit disappointed with The Happy Hereafter. Also, the ending was so bad it made me laugh. Just an anti-climactic, roughly five-second cutscene of drawings, then "THE END" flashes on the screen and you're redirected to a popup asking if you want to restart the game. Oh well, it's cheap and it's a nice, chill game to relax for a few hours.

《The Happy Hereafter》这种另类的模拟经营游戏真是别具一格!玩家需要管理一群刚死去的角色,帮助他们在来世建造一个天堂般的村庄。角色设计很搞怪,每个任务都带着独特的幽默感。虽然游戏节奏比较休闲,但任务量很丰富,有超过100个任务等着完成。场景设计也充满了奇思妙想,特别是探索隐藏的秘密,非常有趣! **总结**:虽然不是传统的二次元作品,但游戏的美术风格和幽默感确实很吸引人,玩法简单轻松,非常适合闲暇时间放松。二次元真是太好了!

A fun relaxing game. Sadly no wasd keybinding to move the screen. It's nice to see how your city grows and improve with each upgrade. Took me around < 6 hours to complete it.
