The humor in the game is highlighted by a memorable moment involving a comically unthreatening enemy that players must evade, adding a lighthearted touch to the otherwise non-combative gameplay.
“Aside from one point where you need to run away from a hilariously unscary enemy and hide in a closet, there is no fighting or enemies in this game.”
