Free sociology revision games for AQA students: arcade, dance and maze games on the sociological perspectives, education, crime and deviance and research methods.

They’re short, and they work best after you’ve read the notes on a topic, as a quick check of what has stuck. Each game opens in a new tab. They’re new, so if one misbehaves on your phone, try it on a laptop.
