Well I bought the game and it feels pretty addictive actually. There are people who dont like the humour in the game
but I do enjoy the humour that is in the game.
 
The thongs themselves seem to be a parody of the rings in Tolkiens Lord of the rings trilogy. One thong to bind them all...one thong to.. 
Though hopefully there are more ranged weapons than what I have found so far ( a pistol and a machine gun).
