It's a little late to be putting flash games on YouTube. This would have made so much sense 18 years ago.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


YouTube joins the slowly growing list of companies with gaming initiatives, rolling out its Playables program across mobile and desktop.

To play, simply visit YouTube’s website or Android / iOS app and look for Playables in the sidebar.

YouTube will let players save their progress and keep track of high scores.

Offering a slate of casual games has become one of the more popular ways that tech companies are using to lure in or keep subscribers.

LinkedIn recently rolled out its game offerings that are apparently pretty entertaining.

The New York Times, Hearst, and even Netflix have all added games as a part of their regular services.
