In one word: Absolutely.
If you played Thank Goodness You’re Here! at launch and hit the bunting glitch, update 1.6.1 is your salvation. If you haven’t played it yet, this patch represents the definitive way to experience Coal Supper’s surreal masterpiece.
The game is only about 3 to 4 hours long, but every minute is packed with a specific brand of British, hand-drawn chaos that you cannot find anywhere else on the eShop. With the performance now silky smooth and the subtitles actually readable, Thank Goodness You’re Here! remains one of the best comedy games of the generation.
On Switch handheld, 1.6.1 smooths the frame rate during the game’s most chaotic setpiece (the “Soggy Bottom Parade” chase). Load times between the town’s four districts have dropped from four seconds to just over two. Audio glitches—like the accidental looping of the “squelch” sound—are gone.
Should you reinstall? Absolutely. Even if you 100%’d the game at launch, Update 1.6.1 is the definitive way to experience Barnsworth’s nonsense. It doesn’t reinvent the slap. It perfects the follow-through.
Final line (as the game would want):
Go on. Slap the cabbage. You know you’ve been counting.
While not a content expansion, the pause menu now features a "Slap-Tracker." This shows you how many of the game’s 1,779 unique slap-able objects you have found. Given that the game famously hides a secret interaction inside a drainpipe that can only be triggered by slapping a duck in a different chapter, this QoL addition is a godsend.
