Love nearly every game I've tried, BUT . . .

It seems to have virus prompts all the time. Then games freeze up after a couple games & also in the middle of game. I have to log off to continue anything on my computer. Hope this problem is fixed because I'd love to try FreeRide again someday in the future.

Full of Viruses, Spamware, Malware, etc.!

I enjoy games, but everytime I try one of your games, it totally messes up my computer which takes the computer technicians several hours to fix.
When one chooses a particular game, the program logs through three or four other programs to get to the chosen one instead of connecting to the chosen one right away. Bogus!

SNOWBALL'S CHANCE !!

I have been playing the game Around The World in 80 Days for 3 months now. I get to day 79 and the game shuts off and or the time is shortened. You don't have a snowballs chance in hell of getting through it. If you are going to have a timed game keep the time right. I get to the end of day 79 and BOOM ! My husband says I stick with it longer than he would, but I have played it for the last time. Also Free Ride, stop jerking the plug when a game is good.

Hey there Demora,

First thing I'd like to address for you is that our games do not have any time limits whatsoever, so there is no need to worry about that.

It sounds like, from your description, the game is closing on its own when you gear near the end of Day 79. This can be caused by a number of different things. Luckily we have a great in depth Help Center on our website. Please click here (http://www.freeridegames.com/support/?article_id=2468) and follow the instructions on the page and it should help you resolve this issue.

If you have any questions or run into any further issues, be sure to click the "Need Help?" button at the top of our Help center so you can get in touch with our Customer Service team!

Enjoy the games!

not impressed

I tried to down load it twice and in both times i could not get beyond the 3rd level it kept freezing up and not letting me continue. The game up to that point was great, real good graphics, challenging puzzles, and a great story line, it would be great to finish it though.

Greetings Yvonne,

We know how frustrating it can be when a game freezes up or closes out when you are playing. There are number of different causes that can cause this. Luckily those causes are all described and explained in our in depth Help Center.

The first thing that can cause these issues is if your DirectX component or Video Card drivers are out of date. We have in depth instructions on how to update those components in our Help Center. Please click here (http://www.freeridegames.com/support/?article_id=2468) and follow the instructions on the page.

Of course, if you have any trouble at all we want to help you fix it! If you still have issues please speak to our Customer Service team by going to http://freeridegames.com/support and clicking the "Need Help?" button at the top of the page.

Enjoy the games!

Can't Play When It Freezes up And Closes

I completed one of the hidden object games. Was fun, After, I had other HO games that I had downloaded, none of them would allow me to complete even the first levels. It would freeze the mouse then close all on its own. Frustrating!

Unwanted downloading

I love this site. I've only used it twice so far. but when i started playing my first game, i came back and the site was downloading 3 other games that i didn't even look at want for that matter of fact. i don't want to have to worry about that happening. but i do love playing the games for free and love that its a trustworthy site.

Fun games, but they stop abruptly

I do like most of the games I have played, but sometimes the game just kicks you and asks for a review. Other times, even though they say there is no time limit they stop and tell you that you have exceeded they allowed time. And sometimes they just stop with no explanation.

Hello Mary Ann,

We'd love to help you get the games to run properly. Typically when a game experiences issue after extended play time it is caused by background processes conflicting with the game. There are also a few cases where outdated DirectX or Video Card drivers can cause a game to crash.

Luckily we have a ton of great Help Center articles that can help with a wide range of issues with our service. For this particular issue please click here (http://www.freeridegames.com/support/?article_id=2468) and follow the instructions on the page.

Regarding the error messages, I wish you had provided us with one or two so we could give you direct steps to fix those. However you can always visit our Help Center and check out the articles about the error messages to help fix the ones you run across.

If you have any issues whatsoever I'd love for you to get in touch with our Customer Service team. Just head over to http://freeridegames.com/support and click the 'Need Help?" button at the top of the page.

We'd love to hear from you!

Hey there Susan,

We'd love to help you get the games to run properly. Typically when a game closes on its own it is caused by either outdated DirectX or Video Card drivers or possibly having too many background processes that are conflicting with the game.

Yeah for games!!!

I love to play the games! But it would be nice if the games were in a window. Sometimes I want to do more than one thing at a time. And it's really irritating when my game shuts down for no apparent reason.

Hello Kathy,

We're glad you love the games so much! And about having the games run in "Windowed Mode"; it is completely possible! Almost all of our games (there may be a few here and there that don't have the option) have the ability to be played in Windowed Mode. All you have to do is go into the Game's Options menu and there should be a Check-Box or something similar for "Full-Screen" (some may say "Windowed Mode"). Just make the appropriate selection and the game will run in a Window, letting you multitask like a pro!

Regarding games randomly shutting down, this can be caused by a lot of different variables (outdated Video Card drivers, too many processes running, etc). I'd like to provide you with a Help Center article that should help with that issue. Please click here (http://www.freeridegames.com/support/?article_id=2468) and follow the instructions on the page.

If you run into any trouble or need any help at all, please get in touch with our Customer Service team! Just go to http://freeridegames.com/support and click the 'Need Help?' button at the top of the page.

I hope that information helps and after you get to play the games how you want you can help us out by adjusting the rating to show just how much you love the games!

enjoy but problem

Enjoy Family feud immensely.
Don't like the constant pop-ups on bottom right corner.
Would like to half game site, so I can do other things while I play.
Others allow this.

Fun games, but...

I really enjoy the games, and the sidebar ads and ads at the beginning of the session aren't so terrible, but when the ads pop up and block my entire game, that I have a problem with. I do not want to play games that I cannot play due to ads blocking them. Those games will be deleted, and if I come across too many more, the whole service will be deleted. It ruins the entire experience for me. Again, I don't mind ads at the beginning nor do I mind the sidebar ads. It's just those wretched pop-up ads that interrupt the game that I shouldn't have to put up with. Other than that, I haven't had that many problems with the games themselves.

Hello Karen,

We'd love to help you fix the issue you're experiencing with the game, however there is not much I can do to troubleshoot this issue for you at this moment due to a lack of details (Which game is it?

Please click here (http://www.freeridegames.com/support/?article_id=2468) and follow the instructions on the page and it should help you out with that issue.
