The game's humor is characterized as quirky and experimental, providing moments of hilarity, especially for those with a dark sense of humor. While players find the soul descriptions and achievements amusing, some note that the humor can become repetitive over time.

- “And adding your own friends in the game is amazing and funny; you can even make the judge *dread* say things when you judge their souls.”
