good game as an idea, but the execution slightly feels off, it's surely interesting tho. Also it would be great to explore the same concept but where you also need to avoid malware emails

Super interesting take on the theme, well done for making something that stands out! Very nostalgic vibes as well

Hey awesome idea!! I really enjoy this type of stuff, finding out the little clues is perfect! I really enjoyed this one, i only wish i knew where i went wrong when i failed. Congrats on submitting this one, its awesome!

I knew those cybersecurity trainings would to me well. I had a 15 streak. 

Nice concept and implementation with lots of room to explore. Actually is a nice way to train people on the dangers of phishing and scams. Well done!

Very original concept, I really like the desktop and the little "secrets" to find out, so cool!

clever use of theme, I like it

A very original take on the theme! The gameplay was simple but very fun, I enjoyed reading all the emails. One thing I would suggest to make the gameplay loop more interesting and to make determining what's spam a bit more fair is to add more ways of finding information about who is writing to you. For example having access to more documents (like the contract from the bank) or being able to access a web browser where you could maybe find more information about a company. The art was very nice, you did a great job with it. The music choice was great as well, it was very relaxing. Overall a great game. Well done!

Fun little game! I like the amount of polish on this, it's all pretty coherent. Sound is really good too. I wanted to keep playing when I reached the end of the emails.

Did I miss biscuit?

Really fun game.  I like the art, and it was a cool idea too.  Great job!

Very cool idea. I love the investigation aspect of looking around for clues. That's why for some of the mails it was a bit unfortunate that you more or less decided based on the content of the mail if it was spam or not rather than having to do a lot of investigating. But the concept is great!

I like the old windows desktop, nice and relaxing.

Fun and relaxing game, fits the theme

Very nice and simple way to use the theme. I enjoyed it a lot and got a 12 streak. Maybe a virus could appear when the player accepts a spam message as it would make the decision making more tense.

A neat and cozy game about sorting your emails. I am now worried I can't tell what is spam in real life. Thanks lol.

Nice looking game we have here! Unique with the idea, I have seen this one first on here. I like the art-style very cozy.

There isn't much gameplay not so much detective work cause the most spams are easy to detect, would been nice to add something like the wrong email (not offical one) so you put in your notes like real emails. and look at them in that way. It would been nice to have the notes or even pictures also been used to detect spam email.

But maybe that's for feature if you guys wanna work further upon it. Overall very nice game well done!

Haha, nice concept! Feels like I am cleaning my email xdd Artstyle and sounds are awesome, game itself is simple!
