It would probably not even be a hack if it consistently updated the version to
some value used by newer MS DLLs.

For reference, I checked ddraw.dll from a not-up-to-date Win10 installation and
the product version is 10.0.10586.0, so IF the game works there, either the
higher major version is enough or Windows has some compatibility shim or
similar.
