Amused I am

scarletmorning"Knight´s Contract" is a new Hack'n'Slay game. It's not a game genre that I care about. But there is a reason why I am highly amused and slightly WTF about it.
The gist is; the game dudes (developers, I don't know what they're called) decided to use Goethe´s Faust and some of its characters and Rapunzel. The fact that Rapunzel appears in a game with the Faust characters as the main characters is already amusing enough. But I have more of a "problem" with this: the four main characters are Rapunzel, Doctor Faust, Gretchen and Heinrich.
There is one problem with that.
FAUST´S FIRST NAME IS HEINRICH. Heinrich = Faust. So, what happened there? Why is Dr. Faust the villain and Heinrich the dude you play? And where is Mephistopheles? He's my favourite character >[ (Not that I would buy the game.)
