Latest Java 8 (from www.java.com) now works for GameColony players using both Mac and Windows!
You DON'T HAVE TO UPGRADE to Java 8, but if you choose to install it, the games will work now.
All Mac and Windows users at GameColony.com can now play using the latest Java 8 after installing a very small GameColony Java add-on!
If you have Java 8 installed, GameColony will ask you to download and run a very small Java add-on.
On older Windows (e.g. Windows XP), the add-on script may ask you to select the user. Please select 'Administrator'.
When the add-on reports 'success!', you'd need to close and restart your browser.
If you update your Java 8 installation in the future, GameColony will ask you to re-run the Java add-on.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
