How do I get this game to work???

Postby jojubee » Tue Feb 02, 2016 3:12 pm

I just bought this game for my daughter. It is not in any format that I have any idea what to do with. It appears to need to be unzipped, which I have tried to do, but I don't know where the unzipped file is or what to do. This is very frustrating.
I understand that most people who buy this game are probably more computer savvy than me, but don't you think there should be some sort of instructions (in an obvious place on your website) for people who are used to downloading games and getting ready-to-go start buttons rather than a mysterious bundle of files? I can't be the first person to be befuddled in this way.
Thanks in advance for anyone's help.

Welcome to the community, sorry you're having issues.
You can extract the file to any location you want. Right-click on the downloaded zip file and select "Extract All". After this, you can select whichever location you want.
If you purchased via Steam it should download and install automatically?

Please let us know how you make out.

Humble Bundle, it would seem.
