You will very rarely come across Unity games compared to Flash or HTML5 games; however, identifying them is easy, because they will ask to download the Unity Web Player on the likely chance you don't already have it installed.

	To confirm this, when on the page containing a game, press Ctrl+U to open its source HTML file and search for a .~~unity3D~~ file link. If you find one, the game is on the Unity platform, and the .~~unity3D~~ file will be the main file of the game, so copy its link and download it.

An example of such a game is ''Alternator''.

	Another way to find a suitable version for a Unity game is to launch the .unity3d file in ~~Basilisk~~, hold down the Alt key, and right-click the game. Hover over the ''Release Channel'' menu and you should see the ranges of Unity versions that the game is compatible with, for example <code>Stable (4.3.5f1 - 4.6.6f2)</code>. You will see a checkmark next to the Unity version that the game is currently running in. This only gives a range of versions instead of an exact version, but it may still be helpful for debugging purposes.
