Internet Archive keeps Flash games alive... without Flash


Pac Man is one of the many Flash games featured in Internet Archive. — Internet Archives/AFP

Fans of online Flash games can breathe a sigh of relief. Although the technology will reach the end of its life Dec 31, it will still be possible to enjoy the finest of Flash thanks to Internet Archive, which has opened a dedicated section and has already managed to emulate hundreds of Flash games and animations.

Adobe is bringing its adventures in Flash to an end Dec 31, laying to rest one of the ubiquitous technologies of the noughties, which became increasingly outdated and redundant. Many web browsers no longer feature native support for Flash, and the technology will become officially obsolete in a few weeks' time.
