A time-travelling adventure in which hilarity is guaranteed, The Holy Gosh Darn releases onto Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC.
We’ve been keeping a beady eye on The Holy Gosh Darn ever since the reveal announcement back in early 2023. A game that initially had plans to release that same year, it was hugely anticipated, what with it coming from Yogscast and Perfectly Paranormal; the latter sitting behind a couple of classics in Manual Samuel and Helheim Hassle. Finally, some 18 months or so later, The Holy Gosh Darn is here.
A funny new adventure?
Available today on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, as well as PC, PlayStation and Switch, The Holy Gosh Darn whisks us off on a comedic adventure, one in which time-travel is front and centre. It focuses on a world on the brink of destruction, as you are left to jump between Heaven, Hell, Earth and Helheim in order to save the day.
Visually, The Holy Gosh Darn looks on point, and if we know one thing about Perfectly Paranormal, it’s likely to excel in the humour too. With a deep, fun narrative pushing things on, and a mysterious God-created artefact a key component, this is a game that will take you across a range of locations, eash dynamically changing as you go.
With only six hours to save Heaven, and various time periods to traverse, you’ll probably be best off grabbing a purchase and download of The Holy Gosh Darn as soon as you can.

The Holy Gosh Darn Description
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.

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.
