The writing was cool, but I feel like this is missing a lot of context to be able to understand which are typos and which are in-universe greetings, as well as normal, everyday occurring events and email domains. In addition to this, the definition of phishing in this game is much broader than the actual definition, which is deceptive emails sent to steal credentials. A lot of these seemed to be just unfortunate coworkers who got their account already stolen and are now sending out malware and links to malware and plugging in terrible USBs and telling people about them, to be completely honest. At this rate, the network has already been compromised.

This is a really cute game! It was really hard to tell which emails are fake or not, but it was funny reading what the coworkers had to say. Shmark's face changing expressions is cute, and the emails were also interesting to read. Really nice game! :D

Anglerfish Rescuevery very interesting idea, my first attempt got me trying to mark everything as trash behind the text prompt ... got fired after 5min lol ....
in my second one I started noticing the domains of the emails but still got some wrong ... this is really fun to do kinda a dynamic and comedy version of papers please where you have to check emails instead of profiling people
Damn I am nooootttt good at sorting emails lol! Super pretty art, loved the shark 🦈 and the little background details! :D I'm impressed with the variety of emails, I was expecting it to get repetitive quickly but there were a ton of different ones to read through! Also the music fit the vibe of the game pretty well imo! 🎵 Nice work! :D ♡

CatFishingThis is great, I have been joking about a phishing game and it exists!, great, job. I have the following suggestions,
- display the notifications perhaps in the top like a whatsapp notification instead of above the screen.
- the phishing emails generally have malicious links, so I was getting confused about some email that were phishing but didn't had links
also I was able to cheat by moving the message below the screen :D
this was very creative, congrats!!

An Otter's Happy Fishing AdventureI don't think I'm cut out to work in this office.
Fun and quirky game. At the beginning I couldn't really figure out which emails to chum or not but I was figuring it out. I love the shark's face cause that's the same face I made whenever I saw the speech bubble pop up. Overall this is a nice and charming game.
