As the name implies, humorous games want to make you laugh-- out loud. They are often based on cartoon characters, although that is not necessary. Humor in games range from dead-pan, to corny and flat-out funny. Although most humorous games are adventures, there are many tongue-in-cheek strategy games and other genres that make good-natured fun of real-world leaders and wars. Examples of humorous games: Toonstruck (adventure), 9:05 (interactive fiction), Nuclear War (strategy)
