    Hi Ashtami,

    I am Sumit here to assist you with this question.

    Flash was retired by Adobe in December 2020 and subsequently was removed by Edge and all other browsers later, hence you would not be able to play it. I suggest you to get in charge of the game developer to know if they have moved to newer technology like HTML5.

    Hope that helps.

    Flash player is no longer supported on the Microsoft Edge and most of browsers and this is decision from the vendor of the Flash Player and to protect user's security and privacy they have been removed.

    There are alternative ways like using emulators but I don't recommend them.

    You may contact the website owner and ask them about alternatives and some websites will run their flash games on emulator server. In this case you don't have to do anything and they enable it in their servers.

    Better option would be redevelop websites and games using HTML5 or other modern website technologies.
