Game crashing on startup
Everytime I try to launch the game I get a window saying there is a problem and Windows will notify me if they find a solution.
Has this happened to anyone else? I have tried veryfing files, reinstalling game, firewall, and nothing gives me good results.
If there is a solution for this please let me know, I would like to give this game a try before deleting it from my library

PC specs are not that important, but give the software installation a try. Steam doesn't show, if the installation succeeded. Please reinstall from each directory under "_CommonRedist". DirectX and VCRedist. Important. Always choose YES, even if the PC says the same software is installed. Install it over the existing installation. Don't mind about that, because other programs and games install their version over your installed one.

For VC Redist you only need the .....x64.exe version. The ....x86.exe is for 32bits OS.

Rebooting after both installations could exclude some errors. But for this software this isn't needed.

Try to start the game, after you have done some steps, Maybe the next step isn't needed, but I will give them to you.

Compatibility mode is something I don't like (Emulating OSes), but this is the next step.
Find the "BoundByFlame.exe" and click right with the mouse, The scoll down menue should show up the last point "Properties" (Your language could differ) . The Tab "Compatibility" and then "Start Program in Compat.... for" (Chooses the OSes, but always step backward. The newest OS first down to Windows XP or Vista. Click OK to set your value and try to start the program. If not go back to next OS.

Starting Program as administrator is to be used carfully. The program then has more possibilities in changing your PC. Last option to use, please.

You can start the game with the exe file mentioned before, sometimes that helps. If this is functioning, Steam must be loaded, to check if the game is yours.

Further I have no Idea. Some tips, always remember which changes you made, to make these steps reverse if needed. When I try to get a program started, I uncheck an option earlier checked. This could result in getting the program started.

Try installing the Microsoft C++ Runtime 2005. Just google and download the x86 or x64 package depending on your system. That was the one I was missing. Worked after I installed it. Check your installed C++ versions and install any that are missing as well.
