I have swf games on my site that use Adobe Flash Player.  A member just purchased a RCA Viking Pro tablet which has the Android OS. . .and, Flash Player is not supported on the Android OS.  
Any ideas on what she might do that would enable her to play the games?

                                        You need to move away from flash. Google has already removed support for it from most, if not all of it's software.
You would be better off trying to convert your flash games to html5.

I don't know how to accomplish that, Davio.
But thanks anyway.

                                        Me neither MaGraham. But a google search of "convert flash to html5" reveals some free and not so free tools.
You probably could look into it.
But flash is dying and on it's last legs.

I really appreciate this info, Davio.  
I don't have time to research this but if someone else is playing around with Flash (converting games) and find an easy-to-use software (for dummies),
   I would love to hear about it.

                                        If you have a link to the flash files MaGraham I could download them and see if I can find a software to convert them for you.

                                        I'd get in touch with the game developers and ask them.  They must realize flash is on the way out.  If the develpers of the game don't have a path to the future, try some new games :)
