The app was probably made with a different version of android in mind. Only thing you can really do is make sure you're updated or try and install older firmwares. Or you could use a pc to emulate that one app.
OR you got a bad .apk

The android version of the application might have different capabilties.
It's also possible the android version is only capable of playing games based on the features required that some games need and others don't.
Last the game you're trying to play may not work on that platform (maybe try it on pc if you haven't)

Have you read this yet
"How to Play: Note: This game requires ‘Unity Web Player’ to play, and, due to the high-quality content, may take longer to load than regular flash games. Your computer needs to have at least 4 GB of RAM with a 2.8 GHZ i5 processor (or better) to be able to play properly & quickly (If you have low RAM and a slow processor, the gameplay is very dark and sluggish at best)."
Also sucks if you can't get it to erun but there might be some workarounds
