I bought the Platinum version off Steam this weekend and has a similar issue with King's Bounty:The Legend. Oddly AP/Crossroads loaded just fine. I got it working by doing basically what is outlined here. I'm running it on Win 7 Pro

1. Run app in compatibility mode (probably only applies to Vista/Win7 users)
1) Go to c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\King's Bounty - the legend
2) Find the kb.exe executable
3) Right click and select properties
4) Go to the "Compatibilty" tab
5) Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
6) Select Vista SP2
7) Click OK

2. Manually set the resolution
1) Go to c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\King's Bounty - the legend\data
2) Double click game.ini
3) the first two lines will indicate your xxxx/yyyy resolution in the form xxxx by yyyy. The lines should be
setf ~screenresolutionx xxxx
setf ~screenresolutiony yyyy
4) Edit these lines to indicate your desired resolution
5) Save the file

Relaunch the game and it should run.

I un-did the Compatiblity setting once the game ran.
