New description:

 Starting through the GUI works normally. The assert output might suggest a
 null filename getting passed.

 Steps: Start ZGI with --auto-detect instead of the GUI

 Results: Crashes immediately with console output:

 scummvm: ./common/base-str.h:176: Common::BaseString<T>::value_type
 Common::BaseString<T>::operator[](int) const [with T = char;
 Common::BaseString<T>::value_type = char]: Assertion `_str && idx >= 0 &&
 idx < (int)_size' failed.
 Aborted (core dumped)

 OS: linux
