[BUG/ISSUE] Can't launch?
Just bought the game. I click play and the green Gameloft logo box comes up... But then nothing else happens. Left it like that for a while (a little over 20 minutes) and it never actually opens the game. I checked the game file integrity and also restarted steam. I have a pretty good computer, and more than enough space. Any idea why this could be happening?

Yeah, I tried every fix I could find and no go. Had to get a refund. Really bummed because I loved this game as a kid and all versions made since. Was really looking forward to this one.

same - so the dev. is doing a cash grab and not replying or fixing the issue.

Just to jump in, I've been experiencing the same thing since day one. Thats an extreme level priority bug on day one. Not a good look. Thinking about talking to steam support about a refund. Will wait a few more days to see if Gameloft came get it together.

Only way I could get it to work, was go in to compatibility mode and select Windows 7

I was able to get it working by going out into desktop mode, updating everything, and then i think i started the game from desktop mode and it worked. Havent tried to play it again without having to go into desktop so im not sure if it was updating stuff or what that fixed it.

Ooo nice! I'll remember to try that if it happens again. I eventually refunded the game and bought it again either end of last year or early this year. I wanted to give it another try, and the new copy works. So idk what's up with that.
