Any advice? Downloaded the game which took sometime in itself due to Gog Galaxy needing reset. Now once it has been downloaded when I click play it thinks about it for a second then goes back to as if I've not clicked anything..

I just downloaded this game as well (I am a huge fan and having been waiting for this to go on sale.) , and when I clicked on the game to play the screen goes black for a few seconds then goes back to the GOG screen.

Similar experience here.
I launch the Gog Galaxy thing, It shows a still picture with 3 bikers and 3 names that I guess are logos, plays a few notes of music and then the everything disappears.

I am new to Gog, never played anything from them so far, and it's not a great first impression.

I would love to see at least an error message to know what is the problem.

The same happened to me, iMac Catalina system, did you solved?

I had a similar problem with the Steam version, but I found out that a key system environment variable was missing for my sound/audio settings. In System Properties, click the button near the bottom labeled Environment Variables. In the bottom section, choose New and add the following audio variable: Variable Name is: SDL_AUDIODRIVER and the Value is: directsound .

Once this new environment variable was added the game functioned properly and stopped crashing when I selected Settings under the Help and Options menu.
