Angry Birds.

I play Angry Birds on FB, but I'm getting a message on the home page on my PC to say that Flash player is being stopped in December 2020 & will no longer work. Flash player is what I use to play Angry Birds on FB & probably elsewhere too. What I want to know is, is there anything else that will take over from Flash player so I can still play games or will that be it?
I have tried asking FB & the Angry Birds ap too but no luck with a reply.

Re: Angry Birds.

Since the W 10 update I can't get Flash to work so I play the other Angry Birds game, I think its Friends or something, not as good though, you play other "people" and don't go through levels.
I'm hoping they sort it out.

Re: Angry Birds.

Maybe the game and other content that uses Flash will eventually be converted HTML5. Also, when searching for 'Angry Birds' on the Internet, there looks to be quite a number of places that offer the game. Perhaps not all will require Flash Player.

I installed an Angry Birds game from the Microsoft Store ages ago and paid about £3 for it (I think). It fills the entire screen and is pretty good.

Re: Angry Birds.

Thank you for your answers. Angry Birds Friends on FB is free.
I think I have other aps that use Flash as well.
Guess I'll have to wait & see what happens.
