How to Download Flash Games to your Computer

Internet is flooded with interesting games and we can play a number of

games on internet for free. But there are times when we can't access internet (or are not allowed to :-) ).

Here's a quick and straight-forward guide for downloading Flash-based games on your own computer so that you can simply play them when offline (or with limited access).


Note: As Internet Explorer is widely used, so the given instructions cover IE. Although pretty much the same instruction - set can be used for other browsers with slight modifications. Also make sure that you don't clear cache or close the browser before saving the game on your computer hard-drive.

• First let the game load on the browser completely.

• Once the game is loaded, Go to Tools menu and select Internet Options.

• In General tab, Click Settings button under Temporary Internet Files group.

• Click View Files which opens the Temporary Internet Files Folder.

• Click View - Details and Click View - Arrange Icons By - Internet Address. According to the webpage, you can sort the .swf (Shockwave Flash Object) files.

• After finding the right flash file you can simply right click and copy the file and then save it in a different folder on your computer.

If you are using Windows Internet Explorer 7 or 8, you may click here to find the instructions for viewing Temporary Internet Files.

So download your favourite games and go gaming!
