Follow this guide when the following solution doesn't work.
1. Edit compact.cfg and set both value to true
2. Using WineD3D

This is my first time making this guide. I hope this guide is helpful and easy to follow.

Enabling 3D Acceleration
Step 1
Download PopCap Patches by The1812 here --> https://github.com/the1812/Popcap-Patches
You only need to download the .exe files (Not the zip ones)

Step 2
Launch PopcapPatches.exe. It should look like this


Step 3
Click "Open File", and navigate to your game folder then select ZumasRevenge.exe


Step 4
Click "Open" then "Patch". Now you should have new .exe called "ZumasRevenge-nosig+vmem+vard.exe"


Step 5
Make backup for "ZumasRevenge.exe" and rename the patches .exe file to "ZumasRevenge.exe"

Step 6
Launch Zuma from steam and the option should be enabled by default
Enabling Hi-Res Option
Now, for some people including me still can't enable the Hi-Res option and tell that your computer doesn't support the feature. Of course your Full HD monitor and GTX 1050 doesn't support that :)



Here's how to enable the option by changing some value on compat.cfg and registry
Step 1
Open "compat.cfg" in the game directory with any text editor like notepad++


Step 2
Go to line 73 inside function "IsHiResSupported", and change the value to "true" and save


Step 3
Open Registry Editor, and navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\PopCap\ZumasRevenge".
Just double click on HiRes and change the value to "1"


Step 4
Just launch the game and it will enable the Hi-Res option automatically(for me).


And that's it. Thanks for reading until the end.

Можно файл exe не патчить, мне помогло исправить реестр и файл compat.cfg.
You don't have to patch exe file, it helped me fix the registry and the compact.cfg file.

this is an improvement but it stretches on my 21:9 monitor. How to force it to add black bars on sides without stretching?
