OK. A few days I downloaded this game from GOG using Galaxy and, although I couldn't find a way to play it without using Galaxy, I caved in and decided to give it a go today.
So I double clicked the game icon that was installed to desktop and got a Galaxy page - with "Play" greyed out - however when I closed that page down there was a small menu box on screen holding a few choices - including "New" - so I clicked on "New" and the game fired up.
BUT
As soon as the game started, a small box appeared overlaying the centre of the screen (with the game carrying on playing underneath it).
And in that box it said :-
You'll need a new app to open this ms-gaming overlay link.
[Then a picture of a little icon - which might be a Microsoft icon.]
And under that the text carried on with :
Look for an app in the Microsoft Store.
Then another little box with a tick in it. And the words "Always use this app."
I couldn't interact with this box, anything in it OR the game in any way and had to use Ctrl/Alt/Del to get back to Desktop !!
Does anyone know what the heck this all is ????
