You don't need a Unity account to play Unity games. You've downloaded the wrong program.

 

"Unity" (a.k.a "Unity3D") is a program for creating games (kinda like Adventure Game Studio). There is also a seperate browser addon that allows you to play Unity games directly on a website, called the "Unity Web Player".

 

Basically, you've downloaded the Unity game engine instead of the Unity Web Player. You get the web player from here: https://unity3d.com/webplayer

 

The Unity Account is so you can download sample files and purchase addons for the Unity game engine from the Unity Asset Store.

Oops.
