    This includes hits like Papa’s Scooperia, Burgeria, Pancakeria, Freezeria, and Bakeria. Adobe discontinued its support of Flash at the end of 2020, and all modern and secure web browsers stopped being able to play Flash content at the beginning of 2021. [1]

    Developers have been working hard at creating applications that can still run Flash, but since there are so many different kinds of Flash content, it’s been difficult for them to create a solution that can play all Flash games. [2]

    Unzip the game’s folder . Locate the folder of the game you downloaded in your hard drive (it may be in the “Downloads” folder). Then, right-click the zipped folder, and click “Unzip.”
    • Once you’ve unzipped the file, you should see a few files in the folder. The one with the “.swf” extension contains the game itself.

    These file readers are Flash emulators, and there are a few options available. While all of them are still works-in-progress that won’t necessarily play every Papa’s game, they will hopefully be able to play more in the future. Download one of the more popular options here: [4]
    • Ruffle , available for Windows and Mac users
    • Lighthouse , available for Windows and Linux users.

    Open the SWF file with your emulator. Once you’ve successfully downloaded your SWF file reader, open it as an application. When prompted, open the SWF file of the Papa’s game you’d like to play with the emulator.

    If everything goes according to plan, you should be all set to start playing. However, if the emulator isn’t able to read the file, don’t lose hope—with further updates from their developers, there’s still a chance that more Papa’s games will be made available.
