The most recent Flash player and web browser versions are required for some games.

An End User License Agreement (EULA), which outlines acceptable behavior for players and serves to prevent disputes between players, is typically required of players before they can join a multiplayer game. Anyone who breaks the rules will not be allowed to participate in the game.
