Often when I am playing a game that requires me to click close to the bottom border of the screen, I will accidentally click just a little bit too far down and click the hyperlink name of the person who submitted the game. When this happens, I almost always lose all of the progress I made and sometimes it is a game I have been playing for 2 or 3 hours. I know I am not the only person who has this problem and I believe I speak for all of us when I say we would appreciate it if the hyperlink was moved elsewhere; maybe to the bottom of the game description and instructions?

A few things:

1) Where you described the location of the hyperlink compared to the screen indicates that you are blocking ads. However, unblocking ads won't help because one of the ads would be just below the screen.

2) There is one other thing you can do on your end, and that is to set your screen's resolution to the highest setting possible in order to avoid clicking on unwanted things outside the game screen (btw, I've never experienced this at a resolution of 1366x768, which is the highest resolution possible on my computer).

Can't ArmorGames set all hyperlinks to third sites to open in a new screen/tab? At least it would resolve people reporting being taken away from their game completely.

all hyperlinks to third sites


Or all in-site links, period; the issue would otherwise still remain for people who accidentally click an internal link. Obviously
