If you have a cookie blocker, or have not allowed them, then the games won't work. To enable cookies, follow the steps below:

Chromebooks have different settings in place and sometimes block these games from running. The first thing to check if you do experience issues running the game on Chromebook is to  check your settings/filters to give permission to allow the links. If this doesn't work, then try the steps below:
You can allow or block permissions for a specific site. The site will use its settings instead of the default settings. You can also clear data for a site.

1. On your computer, open Chrome .
2. Go to a website.
3. To the left of the web address, click the icon you see: Lock , Info , or Dangerous
4. Click Site settings.
5. Change a permission setting. Your changes will automatically save.
