Do you like a Flash game (Flash game) but do not want to have to connect to the Internet every time you play? This article will help you - you can download almost any game to your PC or Mac for offline play. All you need is a web browser, your favorite game and some time.

Steps

Method 1 of 2: Use File2HD from any browser

  1. Open the web page and navigate to the Flash game you like. In your web browser, go to the page that contains a link to the game you want to download. However, don't start the game.

  2. Copy the page URL. Copy the URL from the address bar of the web browser.
  3. Navigate the browser to File2HD.com. File2HD will return a list of all paths to linked files on every web page. You don't need to download or install anything.

  4. Paste the URL copied earlier into File2HD. Paste the URL of the game navigation page into the box and click “Get Files”.
  5. Find the game file with the .swf extension. Flash games are usually files with the ".swf" extension and can be played in any Flash enabled browser. After the browser window appears a list of URLs responded by File2HD, click Ctrl+F to open the search bar (or ⌘ Cmd+F on a Mac computer). Type.swf into the search box, then press ↵ Enter.

  6. Save the link to the game. The search will return one or two files containing the name of the Flash game. Right-click on one of the links (or click Control+ click on Mac) then select "Save link as". Remember where to save the file.
  7. Open up the Flash game. Navigate to the .swf file you saved and double click to open. The game will run on a web browser, but actually you open directly on your computer and do not need to be connected to the network. advertisement

Method 2 of 2: Download from source

  1. Access Flash game to download. Go to the homepage and locate the game's website. Click on the game you like and wait for it to finish loading.
  2. View page source (Page Info / Page Info on Firefox). The action will vary by browser.
    • View Chrome elements: Long press Ctrl+⇧ Shift+C. If you are on a Mac computer, use a key combination ⌘ Cmd+⇧ Shift+C.
    • View the source on Internet Explorer or Safari: Right-click (or press Control+ click for Mac) anywhere in the browser window (except for Flash games) then select "View Source" from the drop-down list.
    • View page information on Firefox. Right click (or click Control+ click for Mac) anywhere in the browser window (except Flash games) then choose "View Page Info" from the drop-down list. Click the “Media” tab to display the relevant URL on the page. If you want to sort this list by file type, click the word "Type" at the top of the list.
  3. Find the source code of the .swf file. Click the window that appears and click Ctrl+F to search (or ⌘ Cmd+F for Mac), then type .swf. Depending on the home page, your game will be the first or second file that appears in search results.
    • On Firefox, you need to scroll down on the list and find the .swf file with the name of the game.
  4. Copy the entire URL of the .swf file. Double-click the .swf file URL and copy it by right-clicking (or clicking ControlClick + click for Mac) and select "Copy" from the menu. If you're using Firefox, simply click on the file and select “Save As”.
    • If file.swf has no front domain name but only the directory name containing the game (for example "/strategygames/crimson-room.swf" instead of www.addictinggames.com/strategygames/crimson-room.swf) Enter the domain name into the path (before.swf. file), then copy the URL.
  5. Save Flash games to your computer. Press Ctrl+S (or ⌘ Cmd+S for Mac) then choose an easy-to-remember file location.
  6. Open up the Flash game. Navigate to the .swf file you saved and double click to open. The game will run on a web browser, but actually you open directly on your computer and do not need to be connected to the network. advertisement
