Play Games

from: http://en.flossmanuals.net/Browse/PlayGames

There are many games you can play using the Browser Activity. You can visit web pages like PBS Kids and play many free games. Open http://pbskids.org/games/ in Browse :

pbs

You can select to play any of the games available. However you may sometimes see something like this :

flashplay

If you see this or a simlar request with "Flash Click to play? [X]" then click on the "[X] and the animation in that square will begin.

The XO does not ship with Flash, but instead with a similar free, open-source software program called Gnash. If you experience difficulty running games that require Flash, you may need to install it. For the reasons behind this decision by OLPC, please read:

You can also find detailed directions for installing a free download of Flash on your XO at this page on our wiki:
