    You cannot play the game through a browser or this website anymore (that's the old Flash game)

    Why WGT left the PLAY NOW button up is beyond me ?????????????

    To play the new version

    • go to the bottom of this page and click on Download the App
    • click on  Play on Windows or Play on Mac whichever applies to you
    • Download and Save the install file
    • find and open the install file and open it
    • follow through the steps in the install wizard to install (make sure to have the checkbox on for create desktop shortcut)
    • open the game by the new WGT Launcher icon on your desktop
    • SIGN IN with your Flash username and password, DO NOT create a New Player

    Also, you may need to remove all the sites that used Flash on your computer. To do so click the link to the following  Adobe webpage.  When you get there, click on Run Adobe Flash then click Allow in the box that will appear.

    You will then see a box pop up with all the sites on your computer using Flash.  Since Flash is no longer supported, just click the Remove All button.  

    Hopefully that helps you get the new version to work, it helped me....Good Luck!

    Well bud my guess is they left it as just another quick way to get to the launcher? When I hit play now it works fine ...Takes me right to the launcher homepage ...And off I go...So its kinda convenient (as long as you have the "New" version downloaded of course)  😉

    The only thing in the Launcher (PCEA) to see your ball hit count is a little graphic meter next to the ball you are using when playing. It does not show an exact number but just a graphic to give you an idea of roughly where you are on the meter.

    I could see where that would be good but as with a lot of stuff here at WGT that doesn’t work for everyone. Maybe it doesn’t work with all browsers (I use Firefox) but all I get is it opening a window that doesn’t work and gives an error. I just assumed it was trying to open the old Flash game.

    Haha, I tried this just to see what happens. When I clicked on Windows I got a popup that said my system was too old but I could download the app anyway.

    LOL, forget it. I'll just click the Quick Launch icon in my toolbar so my oldass system could play like I've been doing all year. :-D
