ScummVM.
This game runs perfectly fine in ScummVM Nothing to configure. The only requirement is using a daily build and it will start everything up and run pretty much without issue, and windowed on top of it.

There are a couple of reasons to be hesitant about playing in ScummVM yet. The main plus is that it is far more stable than Steam's launcher. There are, however, many more graphical glitches in the ScummVM implementation, and two in particular that could really sting:
- During the vista puzzle, the timing on the first boulder is not always correct, so players need to guess the timing of subsequent boulders instead of using the roots as intended.
- Health bars do not display correctly during Monkey Kombat, so it's impossible to know what health you or opponent are on.
If you're happy with that, ScummVM is definitely a viable option.

Very true, but not enough reasons to justify not playing the game. The Monkey Kombat issue is the only one I found actually annoying.
