Technology
No, in general you don’t really need a fast computer to be able to play the games on our site. A quite normal computer a few years old is quite sufficient to play 99.9% of the games. Nevertheless, maybe a lot of new games on our site will need greater performance and possibly cannot be played the same on an older model. But on the whole, the games on our site can be played with any computer.
We have 2 sorts of games listed on our site. 99.9% of the games are Adobe Flash Player games and the remaining 0.1% are Adobe Shockwave games. You therefore need 2 different software programmes in order to be able to play all the games. The software is free and is offered for free download by the well-known Adobe Company. Adobe Flash Player is usually already installed on many PC’s in advance. Adobe Shockwave Player must mostly be installed manually.
Below are the links to software downloads:
OfThis is often a temporary problem with the computer. Close the browser and reboot the computer. This usually removes problems. If not, Adobe Flash Player or Adobe Shockwave Player may no longer be up-to-date and show an error. Download your current version of the corresponding software from Adobe for nothing (Adobe Flash Player – Adobe Shockwave Player), install, close your browser and reboot the computer. If no games work anymore, contact us and we will try to help you. If, however, only one game is not working but all the others are, we probably made a mistake when we put the game on-line or the game itself has a bug. Please get in touch with us using the contact form so that we can remove the fault.
Games
No, our games have no 18 age limit. We don´t have such games listed. Many games in the “Action” or “Shooter” area are not suitable for small children, but we take care to have a balanced ratio between Action and Shooter games and normal puzzle or casual games on our site. We have a general on-line list and offer games for the whole family. We ask parents to only allow children to play under supervision.
SOf course you can report a game which you don’t like because, for example, it clearly glorifies violence or is racist. Use the contact form to get in touch. We will then check the game and remove it from our site, if necessary. It is important for us to communicate with you and solve problems.
Use the contact form and let us know. Please give the name of the game, the problem, e.g. game does not work at all or has an error when played, and give the game’s URL. We will deal with your message as soon as possible and give you feedback.
The games are mostly made available to us free of charge by well-known game publishers. Other gaming websites also offer a lot of games for download and publishing free of charge on other websites. We always getting new games sent in by e-mail. We have also had a lot of our games programmed ourselves.
