Hi,

Yes, you can. The Kindle Fire doesn't support Java, so you'd be using our "experimental" non-Java games.

If you normally play using a Java-enabled web browser, use this special link as your bookmark on your Fire. It tells the site that when you log in through that link, you're using a non-Java device.

If you always play on your Fire and not from Java-enabled machines, you can change your account settings, choose "Web Browser (without Java)" as your System Type.

Enjoy your games!

Hi,

I've never used a Kindle Fire. But if you set that as a bookmark, presumably it'll be in your bookmarks next time. The link has a marker on it telling the site you don't have Java.

Enjoy your games!

Hi,

It sounds like the bookmark isn't quite the same as the link I gave above. The link above does work to turn off Java for that session. (I just double-checked to be sure.)

But, you shouldn't need a special bookmark anymore. It turns out the Kindle Fire is pretty easy to detect, so I've added some code to automatically turn Java off if you're using a Kindle Fire (or an iPad, or an iPhone).

So just a normal link/bookmark should be working now!
