The humor in the game stems from the comedic challenges players face while measuring chemicals, particularly the struggle to accurately gauge the meniscus in their flasks, leading to amusing moments of frustration and confusion.
“Your job is mostly to find out chemicals and get a certain amount of them - but it's just incredibly funny trying to determine whether or not you've reached your 38 ml in your flask, since that one chemical creates a meniscus and it's not that easy to see it properly.”
