behind the dune
have you read the installation guide in the opening post or searched the thread for "android"?

it's a flash game. flash was discontinued in 2020 and earlier than that for android, so it's doubtful a 2024 phone would come with support for it out-of-the-box. if you don't want or can't install adobe air, try opening the swf with joiplay or

based on ' ' (open source Flash player emulator) that is in early-stage development based on GitHub ReadMe/Changelog notes.

But other than that, try looking through the thread for a joiplay compatible download. Usually on the OP there is someone that releases an Android (apk based) build of the game for you to install on your android device.

chances are they're older games with builds for older androids, as android isn't very concerned with backwards-compatibility; if any were 32-bit then android 14 appears to have removed support for it too.

similarly to flash, you could try running windows builds of games using these two engines with joiplay.
