Okay, so it's been a long time, but I'm hoping you guys can help me with something.

There is this online game from Channel 4 called Bow Street Runner that I've been wanting to play. The problem is, every time I go to the webpage to play it, it glitches on me. When the game is loading the music starts playing then a bunch of dialogue comes in and it won't let me play it. I tried playing it on Internet Explorer after trying on Firefox, which also didn't work. I also tried playing it on different computers with the same result. There is another game from Channel 4 called The Curfew which is a really fantastic game about civil liberties. Digressing a bit, but you all should try it out.

Anyway, The Curfew gave me no such troubles that Bow Street Runner is giving me. I tried clearing out my cookies and cache and whatnot, but that didn't do anything either. What do you think I need to do to make the game run properly? This is the only game I've tried to play online that has done this to me. I noticed some other people had the same trouble and what fixed their problem doesn't fix mine because I've tried it all and nothing works. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

I'm just guessing, but this seems to be a Flash game, so could it be a problem with your version of Flash?

Also, you might want to try clearing your Flash cookies, which are separate from regular cookies.

Thanks for the tip! I'll try it out. smile

ETA: Okay, I tried doing all of that and it's still not working right. Thanks for the suggestion, though! Any other tips from anyone?
