SuzySmith, what is interesting or unusual about an email-harvesting scam?

it's not necessarily an email harvest scam. While they do ask for your email address, it's not necessary to download the game (which seems to auto start with the popup window that allows you do receive updates). I downloaded the game -- which was mildly amusing -- without entering mine. Be patient. Give it a minute.

Yeah, what crunchland said. You don't have to provide your email address and the three games have been damn cute.

Question is, are they a games company that does advertising or an advertising company that does games?

Based on the content and the severity of the "ad" for techtv in the game, I'd guess the former.
