You don't need Galaxy at all. Just create a GOG account (if you don't
already have one) and  use the GOG downloader to get the install
archive.

You don't even need to use the GOG Downloader. Just click the links in
your library and the game will download through your browser (although
for larger games, they break the installer into 2GB chunks so
sometimes you have to click more than once if you use the browser; the
Galaxy Client and Downloader handle all that stuff automagically ;-)


Wasn't too much of a fan of the game in question when it was released;
I hated its control-scheme and it was too weird and cutesy (French!)
for my liking. Age hasn't mellowed my opinion. Nonetheless, I have
multiple copies of the game. "Free" is very hard for me to resist.

Thank you. 

As someone else pointed out, you don't need Galaxy installed to get
this one.

This game was hard when I played its playable demo back then!
