This seems like a first-time Twine author's game, with at least no broken links.
The writing is rushed and seems untested. Here's a sample:
"He pulls out a big rotten fish and throws at you, it hits at at the head and knocks you unconcious."
There is some funny humor, but a lot of it didn't make sense even as nonsensical humor.
I think this just needs to be heavily revised. At its best, it could end up like the madcap game Escape the Crazy Place, but at its worst it still represents a step forward for the author.
I don't like "chatting around bushes," so I'll be blunt: This game is a nonsensical mess. However, it very clearly does not take itself seriously, so there's no reason for the player to do so, either.
If you're in the mood for a quick lark that feels a bit like a cross between The Horse Whisperer and You Will Select a Decision, then you could do worse than this ridiculous little vignette. The combination of spelling errors, punctuation misfires, garbled phrasing, and rampant silliness where you might expect a plot is amusing enough to keep playing until you reach the end. (This takes about 10 minutes.)
If you're lucky, that will be "end of episode 1 / good ending". If you're not, then who cares, really? Chances are good that you had enough of a laugh to make "your heart rate ace" -- or at least enough to crack a smile.

These games are not the best games, but the games that made me laugh the most. They may not be funny all the time but they contain one or more funny passages.
Verb That Noun titles by David Welbourn
This is a very silly poll that collects games with "Verb That Noun" style titles into one list. It amused me.
