Deleted Wiki: Clean Up the Lost Files is a cozy incremental sorting game set inside a fictional 2007 fan wiki. As its new moderator, the player restores 10,324 deleted item entries by sorting them into categories, subfolders, and rows. Sorting earns points for userscripts that make the work easier, while restored pages and messages reveal the community's history.

I just finished the game's story and have to review this while it's fresh. I never leave reviews, even though I read them a lot to decide whether to get a game or not.... woops. Anyways!
I was simply addicted to the fun of organizing...
Honestly, worth a lot more money than you pay.
Sure it's a bit of a shorter game, and it's mostly just sorting, but the story and the lore are worth it!
The actual story of how this happened, and why you need to go sort all this out, and the way it's revealed through forum posts on the game wiki is just.. so cute and charming, and the background story...
