Why Isn T My Game Pigeon Working

All of Coolmath's games are functioning perfectly. If a game isn't working for you, there's a problem on your side that can probably be fixed. ALL browsers should be able to run these games.

1) If you CAN see the bouncing 'Coolmath' in the blue box above and your game looks like it's up and ready, but you can't get it to start, click your mouse on the game area. Sometimes the game just needs to know you are ready to play. If this box is working, but a some of our newer games are not, they might require the latest version of Flash, so you will need to update Flash to play those games.

First of all, check that the game share is set up correctly. After all is good and the “Homes” are set, you will be able to see all the Digital content of your friend.

Check your internet connection Switch between your cellular network and Wi-Fi and then try downloading GamePigeon. You can also try to download the app on another device while connected to the same network. If both don’t work then the problem could be caused by your internet provider.

2) If you CAN'T see the bouncing 'Coolmath' in the blue box above, then you probably need to enable, or install a program called Flash.

  • If you are using Chrome, and it says 'Click to enable Adobe Flash Player', then click on the box and follow the instructions to enable the player.

Q1. The game won’t open for me on my iPad, iPhone or Android-based device. Why is that?
In order to play Flash games, you have to install a web browser which supports Flash on these devices. We recommend Puffin Web Browser because it is one of the fastest web browsers (that we have encountered) that supports Flash Player on iPad, iPhone and Android-based mobile devices. Puffin Web Browser provides a desktop-like web browsing experience (with the help of cloud servers) to tablets and smartphones without the normal need for powerful hardware. It is available to download here for Android.

Q2. The game won't open for me on my PC or Mac. Why is that?
First, try clearing your browser Cache, and then reopen the game page. If you are unsure how to clear your cache, see this very helpful guide or alternatively see these instructions.

If the game doesn't load for you, and you see a blank area, even after waiting for 5 mins (some games are very large, up to 16 Mb in size, and naturally take longer to load without showing anything), you should try clearing your browser's cache.

Why? Because it may hold an incorrect or incomplete file that prevents the game from loading properly. An incomplete file may become loaded if the connection between you and our server gets interrupted momentarily, or if you hit the ‘REFRESH’ or ‘RELOAD’ button on your browser before the game file had the chance to load in full.

Q3. Adobe Flash Player required? What is that message about? The game isn't loading for me, and the page seems to be hanging or is blank..
