    According to this discussion, Facebook Gameroom​ (beginning with comment 12), Facebook Gameroom is a Chromium-based application, as such, it would use the Flash Player PPAPI plugin, which is not the same Flash Player plugin used by Internet Explorer.  To download Flash Player PPAPI plugin, do the following:

    • Navigate to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions
    • In step 1, select Windows 10/Windows 8
    • In step 2, select FP 28 for Opera and Chromium - PPAPI
      • there may be an optional third party offering in the middle panel of the page
    • Click Download now to download the installer to your system
    • Ensure Facebook Gameroom is completely closed
      • You can go to Task Manager to look for the process.  If it's there, terminate it.
    • Go to your Downloads folder, locate the Flash Player installer.
    • Double-click to launch it and follow on-screen prompts to install Flash Player PPAPI.

    If this doesn't work, I recommend contacting Facebook Gameroom info & support for assistance as it's their application
