    The humor in the game is derived from a playful misunderstanding of character design and dialogue, particularly the portrayal of gnomes or dwarves, which some players find amusingly reflects a disdain for "manlets." This unintentional comedic effect adds a layer of humor that resonates with certain audiences.
