    Most likely not with flash. You will need to use Desktop or Steam to access the game with your computer.

    Yes.

     

    We've been playing the PCEA version for a while. 

    You can download here on the forums: http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/606334.aspx

    or...

    You can find it on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1182020/WGT_Golf/

    Just revisited WGT toady after several years. had to allow flash on a new desktop using Windows 10.  I don't know what Steam is and am not going to invest much effort in a PC game that I rarely use.  I see it hasn't changed much except for a few new courses.

    Early Access is where the game is going. Flash is gone in December and we have no choice but switch over. 

    We all want flash to stay, but its not going to happen. I have had steam for years, its free and WGT can use their servers.

    Given the extremely low number of WGT users on Steam, I seriously doubt WGT will move to Steam servers.

    Well, there is another option --- going to mobile, right? Might be my choice --- with some desktop time for the "owner" stuff that's easier to do there.

    There is fewer and fewer links to the launcher anymore. I had to dig to find one for Paul

    Doesn't the link (Download the App) in the footer of every WGT page work?

    It sends you to a page with multiple options. The windows option did not work yesterday.

    I went to the original post  on 9/2019 and it redirected me to another page. I right clicked and saved the link.

    The picture up top and Get the app does not download it anymore.
