Nothing you can as an enduser will get it working correctly. Familiarize yourself with the Rules and Guidelines, Tutorial and other links at the top of the page. In the future, do not report bugs for games that are clearly labeled NOT WORKING (RED warning screen when starting the game which you need to OK) unless there is a clear and decisive regression noted from version to version. Devs do not want to hear that games do not work, especially if they already know it :) Closing
