Additional Comments
You have to replace the game.exe with an actual version of the Wintermute engine. Because it seems that in the released version an incompatible version of the engine was delivered.
I have used the 1.9.1 version. The SDK which has the needed engine executable can be found here:http://dead-code.org/home/index.php/download/lang-pref/en/
After installing the WME SDK with wine you will find in the install folder of the SDK following executable: wme.exe
Just replace the Game.exe of the game with the wme.exe file.
The v1.9.1 SDK supports also direct3d9. To use direct3D9 mode instead of direct3D8 use the wme_D3D9.exe instead of the wme.exe.

I did everything like Stephan said, but no way to get it running.
I'm using Wine V. 1.3.23 on Ubuntu 10.10 (64bit).
I
- downloaded and installed Wintermute SDK 1.9.1
- tried to replace game.exe with wme_D3D9.exe and wme.exe
- copied every SDK DLLs to System32
First time (with no changes) the setting window showed (settings.exe I guess), then nor that (even restoring original game.exe).
unplayable

I tried to play the game.
But after starting there is no character and game brings up tons of lines with message "Script runtime error. View logs for details"
Got it running

I got the game successfully run with wine.
The problem is that the delivered engine version of the wintermute engine (encapsulated in the Game.exe) doesn't work with the game data.
After replacing the game.exe with the version from WME SDK v1.9.1
the game works. e.g.The characters are displayed correctly.
After installing the WME SDK with wine you will find in the install folder of the SDK following executable: wme.exe
Just replace the Game.exe of the game with the wme.exe file.
The v1.9.1 SDK supports also direct3d9. To use direct3D9 mode instead of direct3D8 use the wme_D3D9.exe instead of the wme.exe.
