I tried working for my country with the free game ``Your letter has been rejected.'' which censors letters filled with people's feelings to prevent information leaks.



`` Your letter has been rejected. '', which can be played for free from your browser, allows you to become a censor who checks whether letters sent to other countries contain confidential information from your homeland, Gurtsana, and censors various letters. It's an adventure game. In a dystopia where if you make a mistake that leads to the leak of confidential information, it's game over, and you try your best to serve your country as a censor.




You can play 'Your letter has been rejected.' for free from the page below.

The game start screen looks like this. Click on 'June 21st' on the right side of the screen to start the game.



The game screen looks like this, there are no detailed tutorials, just a few documents placed on the desk. Let's click on this.



Then the document was uploaded and I was able to read it. The player, who is a Gurtsana, checks the letters sent to the neighboring country, the Duchy of Lesnoria, and censors them to prevent the contents of the ``top secret project underway in Gurtsana'' from being leaked. After reading the document, you can return it to the desk by right-clicking.



On the first day, there are two sheets on the desk: an ``Appointment Letter'' and a ``Confidential Information Notification''. Of these, the ``Confidential Information Notification'' is distributed every day with different contents. , you definitely need to check it out. If there is no problem with the censored letter, press the 'green stamp', if there is a problem, press the 'red stamp'.



When you close up the letter, a red and green stamp will appear at the bottom right.



After reading the letter, if there is no problem, a green stamp will be stamped, and if it is determined that there is a risk of information leakage, a red stamp will be stamped. To stamp, click on the stamp you want to stamp at the bottom right of the screen, then click again on the letter.



When all the letters on the desk have been inspected, the words 'End business' will appear at the top right of the screen, so click on it.



Then, the daily work evaluation will be displayed. 'Major leakage of confidential information' is the number of cases that were incorrectly stamped with a green stamp, 'Unnecessary censorship action' is the number of cases that were incorrectly stamped with a red stamp, and 'Severe leakage of confidential information' is the number of cases that were incorrectly stamped with a green stamp. If there are 3 or more 'unnecessary censorship actions', the game will be over. If there is no problem, click 'Next' and proceed with your work as a censor.



Players cannot walk around the streets of Gulzana or interact with others, so they can only learn about the situation through confidential information notices. From a few words written on a small piece of paper, about the size of an A4 sheet of paper, he learns about the progress of a new weapons development project underway in his homeland, Gurtsana.



The letters to be censored range from those expressing concern about the situation in Gulzana and the Duchy of Lesnoria, to updates on the current situation to loved ones, and love letters to loved ones. They found two love letters addressed to a person named 'Ignat' from another sender. It seems that quite a few playboys live in Gulzana.



In some cases, the letters contained poems that made one wonder if there was a hidden code, such as, ``Maybe it was read vertically?'' or ``Maybe it was read diagonally...''



As you work, you will come across letters that use exposed letters to hide confidential information. In such a case, click on the writer at the bottom left of the screen, click the mouse again on the letter and move the writer.



As the work of censors became more complex, the information hiding techniques of spies also became more sophisticated. Finally, a major secret leak occurs. If there is one major leak of confidential information, the game is immediately over and the player will be sent to forced labor indefinitely.



However, if you select the date from the game's start screen, you can play the game from the middle.



Mr. AZ. , the developer of 'Your letter has been rejected.', has summarized his reflections after development in a notebook, including his thought process at the conceptual stage, the games he used as references, and how he handled the large number of letters that appeared in the game. You can read various behind-the-scenes stories about how the game was prepared, how they were particular about the fonts used in the letters, points to reflect on, and so on, so if you play it once and then read it again, it's a great experience.
