We recommended seven interesting, smaller games on our Twitter account in July – and once again, they could not be more different from each other. Want to learn about the different levels of password security in a fun way? No problem! You rather want to vent about toxic gaming communities? Here you go. You long for ingenious puzzles that will keep you busy for an hour? Sure, we have got that covered, too. Or maybe you are fans of unexpected horror? Come on in. Let yourself be surprised by what these games have up their sleeves!
