What does it say exactly? Have you tried another browser?

Its perfectly capable of playing Minecraft. I've done it myself.

You're probably using a Surface RT or a Surface 2, with Windows RT, not a Surface Pro 2 with full Windows. You cannot install x86 Minecraft on Windows RT, but you can get the app from the Windows Store.
