Just bought my first game here but cant run it (Incubation).

Press PLAY and it just stays there, looking like I´m playing the game but nothing happens.

Anyone?
Are you using Galaxy? Where did you install the game? What are your computer's specs (OS, etc)?

In addition to what GR00T said, any logfiles might help. Have you tried searching the internet for any similar issues?

And welcome to GOG. :D

Did you turn on directplay on windows? if you are using 10 that is. or 8/ 8.1

Sometimes that can help with gog games.

Hi and umm ... "welcome" to Gog. I presume you mean Battle Isle 4 - Incubation? I had the same prob with my version of it years ago along with a long list of other games. It didn't look too fab so I don't believe I bothered to even bother contacting support. You are certainly unlikely to find the answer from the, lol, "classy community" here in the general forums and support will take forever to get back to you, if they do at all.
You might find an answer here: https://www.gog.com/forum/battle_isle#1528540243
or here: https://www.gog.com/forum/battle_isle/windows_10_cant_launch_the_game/page1

TBH they're your only hope here on Gog. Good luck! :)

Is it just me, or has there been way more, "How do i play/game is broke" type of threads lately?

At least he is asking how to fix it, if not in the most diplomatic way, but still.

Last week we had another, "If it doesn't work immediately, it's broken and this site is a fraud and I got ripped off" thread.

My guess: console gamers.

No it isn't just you, many others have made similar threads as you and this poor chap (the OP).

That is good news as it must mean there are many new GOG users. Ka-ching!

There's always been a higher percentage of broken games here. Who knows, maybe it's going to get worse ... much worse.

Most likely. It would explain why those questions are always asked in the most vague ways possible.
