Game refuses to run when "Play" on Steam's interface is pressed. I tried restarting my computer, reinstalling the game, reinstalling Steam, nothing has fixed the issue. Game file integrity verified. I do not have Paradox's launcher. System is Windows 10 1909 with 8GB of RAM, 2nd generation Core i5. Thank you

Your problem has nothing to do with the one discussed in this thread, AND as you can see this whole forum is an archive so is not monitored.. Please always make your own new thread in the active forum in future.

You can bypass the launcher by following these instructions:

Download the attached cities.bat.zip file
Extract from it cities.bat
Place the .bat file in your game's Steam folder (In the same place as your cities.exe)
Right click the game in your Steam library
Go to properties
Select Launch Options
Copy and Paste cities.bat %command% into the input box
X out of that screen
Run the game


Sorry for that problem!
