I am trying to launch Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs, but it doesn't want to open. It says that it's going to open and then it just doesn't. It's currently the only game I have installed.
Here's specifically what's happening.
- I click "Play" and it asks if I want to go to the settings or play the game.
- Clicking either one will pop up a little "Launching" box for a millisecond, and the title in my library will go yellow for a millisecond, then nothing else happens.
I have tried:
- Uninstalling and reinstalling
- Verifying Integrity of Game Cache
- Updating & Restarting my computer
- Running Steam as Admin
- Launching the game from a newly created desktop shortcut
But still no luck. Is there something else I need to do? I have checked my firewall properties and both Amnesia and Steam are allowed on public and private networks.
My System Specs (if relevant):
- Windows 7 64bit (SP1)
- Intel Core i5 Processor
- 4GB RAM

Based on complaints on the steam community forum the game is currently broken for a number of people.
However, the asker was able to solve the problem by downloading a .dll file here. Apparently steam is not downloading .dlls appropriately on some x64 systems
