How to download flash games from Newgrounds
Visit this link to access “The Last Stand” page:
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/375622
Step 1 - View Page Source
For Newgrounds, the location of the .swf file can be found by viewing the source of that page, so let’s view the page source to get the direct url of the .swf file.
Step Two - Ctrl+F - Search for the .swf file
Press Ctrl-F (if using Firefox) and type in .swf into the Search box to find the line where the exact location of the .swf file is. Not that hard to find it, right?
Step Three - Copy the url of the .swf file’s location
Highlight the url of the .swf file’s location, press Ctrl-C or right click and select Copy.
Step Four - Add download to download manager
Finally, use a download manager to download the .swf file.
Disclaimer Notice
This method only works if the site did not mask the location of the .swf file, like Newgrounds. If the location of the .swf file cannot be found by viewing the Page Source, then the only method left is to dig through the cache and search for it.

What’s with the ladies on the post? lol
Anyways, I usually just check my temporary internet files on the swf files (either they are games or not)
Some Flash developers (like me), usually put a code to check, if the swf file is not being played/loaded on my domain name, prevent it to be loaded (copy protection)
