Embeds are actually possible in both the Discourse UI (e.g. above a topic list) using a theme, and the [Landing Pages Plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/landing-pages-plugin/180967). For the latter, I’ve made an example using this [little version of the Dinosaur Game](https://github.com/CloudCannon/Dinosaur-Chrome-Game). You can play here: [Pavilion](https://thepavilion.io/dinosaur) (desktop only).

No coding involved for that one. All I did was upload those assets to our CDN (drag and dropped the folder into a digitalocean ‘space’), created a page with the path “dinosaur” and copy/pasted this html (both via the admin UI).

The Landing Pages Plugin implements the CSP and CORS settings of Discourse, which I’ve already set up to handle scripts from our CDN (via the relevant site settings).

I’ll post a full “How to host and embed assets” knowledge-base topic for that plugin to cover that use case next week.
