I just downloaded a game from Big Fish Games and when I clicked the installer, I got the message "Admin access is required to install Big Fish Game Manager." I'm the only user on this computer. What do I have to do to install the game?

It should ask for your username and password. when it does just enter it(or leave blank if you have no password). if it doesn't ask there is probably something wrong with the installer. maybe try redownloading it. if that doesn't work try opening a terminal window from the utilities folder and typing "sudo " then the location of the app. then pressing enter.
