How to Download Embedded Games
With the use of Flash by Adobe, a lot of online gaming websites have embedded games that you can play for free. These games are embedded in websites as small web format (SWF) files that you can download and play offline with the right software. Some browsers even support the use of special "plug-ins" that makes it possible to download embedded games straight from the browser. Some embedded games, however, must be connected to their online servers and won't function when downloaded.
