The humor in the game is widely praised for its clever writing, satirical commentary, and quirky characters, often drawing comparisons to classic titles like Monkey Island and Monty Python. While some reviewers note that the humor can be simplistic or trite at times, the overall experience is described as funny, entertaining, and thought-provoking, making it a worthwhile play for fans of political and cultural satire. The game's ability to turn failure into a humorous experience further enhances its comedic appeal.

“Absolutely hilarious if you're into political/cultural satire, more so if you've ever worked for a bureaucratic organization and were frustrated with your inability to get anything done.”
“You can fail the game by making the wrong choices, but failure is always rewarded by a humorous description of why your quest has ended, and choosing 'continue' from the main menu puts you right back to just before your ill-fated decision, which makes failure itself enjoyable.”
