well, is mostly because flash player is outdated, every day less and less websites use it, it isnt even installed by default in certain browsers anymore.

appart from the engine, club penguin was going downhill in activity, it is just too old and every day less people played it since is pretty stale.

the lack of updates and bad updates also contributed to its closure, look the cp island update for example, that party is just sad.

way too much spam bots, is insane, people are forced to go into limited chat servers if they dont want to read bs spam.

non members where threated like sh*t and this is something that everyone knows, this game is nothing for free to plays, since everything is member only.

and, because of cp island, is well know that phones are WAY more used that pc nowadays, this can give them a larger player base and a better engine since they do not need flash player.

in the end, old games will eventually die, even if they last long like club penguin and team fortress did (this still in top 10 most played steam games depiste being almost 10 years old), as technology evolves, old things gets replaced by better ones, so in the end, cp island is the new club penguin.
