I have the same problem!! What's the solution?

I also got this error, but I figured out a way to fix it.

What you need to do is to go into the file system to this location:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\7 Wonders

From there, right click on "7wonders.exe", click properties, and set it up to run in compatability mode for Windows XP service pack 2. That should sort out your problems. If it doesn't work, try other compatability options

so there's no compatibility mode for windows 10 available but it looks like windows was able to fix it up via its problem resolution option. much thanks for the tip Chaotica.

glad I could help

If the compatibility hack doesn't work write to the support, they will provide a working version of the game. Why they don't put it up to Steam is beyond me, but you still can get a working copy.
Also, you can trick the system into thinking the copy they send you is still a steam game :D

Exactly the same error. Compatibiliity modes do not help me.
