About The Holy Gosh Darn

About this game

Rewind time and save the future in this hilarious time-travelling adventure game.
In six hours, Heaven will be destroyed. Unless you can save it. Use your powers of time travel to jump freely between the past and present across Heaven, Hell, Earth and Helheim. Uncover information in one timeline to alter things in another in a bid to stop heaven from going bang. Again.

The Holy Gosh Darn is a narrative adventure with a time-travelling twist. You play the angel Cassiel, who must prevent an army of Phantoms from overrunning Heaven, which is really annoying because that’s where you live. Discovering the existence of the Holy Gosh Darn, a mysterious artefact created by God thousands of years ago, you must strap on your time- travelling watch and set about hopping between the past, present and future meeting a cast of ridiculous characters across dynamically changing locations in a bid to uncover the secret to life, universe and… well, everything.

It's a laugh-out-loud action adventure spanning multiple time periods and genres, which will answer all of life’s most enduring questions, such as why time travel makes you barf; why only angels get to swear and why skipping dialogue is totally fine when you’ve only six hours to save Heaven.

Expect outrageous humour, inventive puzzles and laugh-out-loud set pieces with
Metroidvania-style progression – all expertly crafted by Perfectly Paranormal, the team
behind Manual Samuel and Helheim Hassle.

Features:

  • Four different worlds to explore, across both Space AND Time!
  • Unique time-pressured narrative requires players to hurry along NPCs as they uncover new information.
  • Uncover fresh narrative strands which are triggered by progression, time, space and logic.
  • 23 Heavenly Elders to insult! Gotta dis them all!
  • Meet all your favorite characters from the bible!
  • Exactly 4,250 dogs - none that you can pet.

Light hearted point and click like adventure with some light platforming éléments. The time loop is done smartly, so it doesn't become tedious.
