If there is a game installation that says Windows 32 bit, can it be installed on a Windows 64 bit computer?

Maybe. Not a great answer, I know. In my on-line searches I found that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I know I have installed 32 bit games on my Windows 10 computer without any problems at all.

So, is there any harm in trying it? I do not want to mess up my computer.

No. It will either work or it won't.

Let me know how it works out! What game is it, by the way?

It's a puzzle game called Back to Bed that I got in the Itch.io Bundle for Ukraine . It is also on Steam. Steam doesn't mention 32 bit but Itch does. It seems to be working.
