OK, I actually got it to work except:

The actual game is not visible (I'm talking the crossword game)

You can safely hit "Continue" and it will work as expected.

You will need to refresh the page to see the game show up if you add it via quick-reply to an existing thread. (The page needs to reload for it to show). If you've done that and it still isn't showing can you give me a link to a page where it should be working? I'll take a look.

Too bad it's just hotlinking other work.
It would be so awesome, if you could have your own words, especially for forums not in english.

While it is linking to other work it is totally OK to do so. ProProfs.com encourages users to embed these games in their own sites by providing the embed code like YouTube and many other sites do. They know with each embedding they grow their brand and it's like free advertisements for them. This isn't "stealing" anything, they give it away, I just made it easy for vBulletin admins to use.

As for non-english words you'd have to contact them.

Is there a way to limit who can use the BBcode for each game?
