You need to use Rosetta to launch. In fact, you'll find that to be the case with several games. Also, there's a trick where you just try lower resolution settings for desktop in order to get some things to launch properly. Try that trick if still failing to launch--you may need to try a few different lower res' to work.

Rosetta?
Then, if I use some utility to start the game, will I be able to connect game in Steam session?

I'm not sure about how it will behave with steam but, I'd imagine it's not an issue. I've not heard otherwise. Rosetta is something you get a popup que for installing usually with some apps. But, if you didn't see it popup you maybe just need to do search and find out a way to force it.

The game is just stuck and didn't open at all.

Are you on the latest OS?

If not I would recommend doing that and it should work.

There is still the possibility that it might still not work, but it worked for me once I upgraded my OS.

Hope I helped👍🏼✌️

Update: I actually got this working with the following steps (via AI, cited from applesillicongames.com):
Steps:
1. Install the game via Steam.
2. Ensure it’s set to launch using Rosetta 2.
3. Adjust your Mac’s display resolution:
• Go to System Settings > Displays.
• Select Scaled and choose the lowest resolution (e.g., “Larger Text”).
• Launch the game.
• Once the game starts, you can revert the display resolution to its original setting.

There is a note in the system requirements at the bottom of the store page listing that the game is incompatible with Apple silicon and any Intel integrated graphics cards (which means it is incompatible with ANY Mac since 2015). However the above steps got it working for me! There is also a product called CrossOver that you can try.
