+is a coffee-break turn-based stealth game inspired by Thief that
+was made for the [7 Day Roguelike 2021][7drl-2021] game jam.
+The randomly-generated mansions are loosely based on Chinese courtyard houses,
+with symmetry, enclosed gardens, and a public-to-private gradient
+from the entrance northward.
+
+The development process is documented in
+a [bunch of devlog posts][disguiser-blog-tag].

+[secbot][secbot-itch] ([web version][secbot-web], [souce code][secbot-src])
+by [Herbert Wolverson][thebracket] is another 7DRL submission:
+
+> The idea behind SecBot is that an outpost has ceased communications,
+> so the morally dubious Bracket Corporation dispatch a security bot
+> to find out what happened.
+> Upon arrival, it becomes clear that things aren't going well for the colony
+> \- so the player rushes around collecting colonists
+> and shepherding them back to the spaceship.
+> I tried to bake some narrative/flavor into the game,
+> and create a fun game you can enjoy over a coffee-break.
+
+Btw, Herbert is going to give a "Learning Rust With Game Development" talk
+at [Rust Meetup Linz on April 22][rust-linz].
