155 years is an astounding amount of time.


Apple can't do anything about it. Adobe owns Flash and they dropped all support for it. You can't even download it from them anymore. No browser will allow an unsupported plugin to run come January 1st.


There is no replacement. Adobe owns all development rights for Flash. They will not sell a dead technology to anyone else. HTML5 replaced the need for any such plugin to run video in a browser years ago.


Whatever game this is, you're going to have to contact the developer and ask them why in the three years since Adobe announced Flash was going to be discontinued, they haven't done anything to update their game so it works without it.

Apple has absolutely nothing to do with it.


Flash is an Adobe product. Adobe killed it. They announced the death of Flash in July of 2017.
