RevelatorITA: same problem gog must update client or game...
I was having problems and found this article after much searching, the fix described works, but you can only play in windowed mode https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007393174-Syberia-Error-at-launch?input_string=syberia+dosen%27t+launch+properly&product=gog
After the expedition 33, it inspired me and I also decided to play in Siberia. the problems are the same, you need to download the installer locally and enable compatibility with Windows 7 for the file. ghame.exe
Same here. Via Galaxy. Please fix.


EDIT:

Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 7"
Check "Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution"

See the attached screenshot.

And the same issue for me...
Same issue here. Ridiculus that GOG has not fixed this after nearly a year.
after the failed attempt to install, this is what I did in order to install the game. download offline backup installer, Go to your local disk, click Programs Files (x86), go to GOG Galaxy, click games, Syberia, download folder, setup_syberia.

Syberia-część 1 nie mogę jej zainstalować
Still has not been fixed.
Gog "cant install" the game but is already installed so you just have to create a shortcut for the Syberia.exe or Game.exe to play it.

Having problems?

Install DirectPlay (Windows Feature), just start Syberia.exe to play.done

To fix d3d error message, download the zip from the github repository (DDrawCompat/releases) and extract ddraw.dll inside Syberia folder.

And with a remaster,it probably won't be.
