When I click the "Play" button to launch the game, it never starts. The application looks like it tries to start, as it shows in my dock, but it never actually launches.

I have tried doing a repair installation, and it says there are no problems.

Any idea how to get the game to run?

Sorry I'm no help, but I'm having this same issue and will be following along. I hope someone can help!

I had the same issue on windows 10. I edited the file "ddraw.ini" with my screen resolution and it's working now.
