it through, it'd be appreciated.

There are 3 games on PullThePlug.com (I'm involved, so I thought I'd post something slightly longer covering stuff.)

Vortex: (vortex.labs.pulltheplug.com)

This covers basic levels to the advanced. Some types of levels available are stenography, privilege seperation style 
bugs, 
password cracking, analysing binaries and encryption algo's and currently has 24 levels for all to enjoy.

Blackhole: (blackhole.labs.pulltheplug.com)

Blackhole covers writing remote exploits for various vulnerabilities, which are available on the website. This game is 
currently
the youngest of them all, and there is 5 levels compromising from the simple, to writing your own assembly stuff to 
exploit
a level.

Void: (void.labs.pulltheplug.com)

Void is a typical exploit this box style game. 

For more information, see the respective websites for those boxes.

Additionally, there is a community of people who play. Feel free to drop by #vortex or #blackhole (and/or additionally 
#social) on irc.pulltheplug.com
