Download Banned from Equestria
Safe download
The easiest way to play is still the online browser version. It does not install anything, runs through Ruffle, and lets you check whether Alpha 1.5 works well on your device before downloading files.
If you want a local copy, choose the path that matches your device. Avoid pages promising "1.6.5 APK", definitive builds, or installers with unclear origins.
Android
For Android, use the BFE-Spanish community page on itch.io. In the download section, look for:
BFE 1.5 EN-ES (ANDROID).apk
Open Android download on itch.io
Before installing, check the file name, source, and permissions. No official Pokehidden APK has been confirmed, so anonymous mirrors should be treated as unverified.
Windows
For Windows PC, the same itch.io page provides an executable bundle. Look for:
BFE 1.5 (Ejecutable).zip
Open Windows download on itch.io
Download the ZIP from itch.io, extract it into its own folder, and run it from there. If Windows shows a warning, confirm that the file came from the link above before continuing.
SWF for Ruffle Desktop
If the browser iframe does not load reliably, you can use the SWF file with Ruffle Desktop. This is a more technical PC option.
Install Ruffle Desktop from its official project, open the SWF in the app, and play with the mouse as you would in the web version.
Which version to choose
Alpha 1.5 is the reliable baseline for browser play, SWF use, and the main community packages. Version 1.6 may appear in community spaces with fan extras, but it should not replace 1.5 for a clean first playthrough.
Pages advertising "1.6.5 APK" or similar names often mix SEO claims with unverified files. For a reasonable download path, stick with itch.io, the SWF links above, or online play.

- If Ruffle takes time to load, wait a few seconds before refreshing repeatedly.
