- Works with Wine as WinXP.

What does not

- Nothing without that winetrick.

Additional Comments

The game normally launches in a blank window where only the mouse cursor is rendered. To get the game to work reinstall vcrun2012 by running: winetricks --force vcrun2012 They managed to remove the "fullscreen" mode here.. You can go full screen by pressing Alt+Enter/Return. Anyway it doesn't cover my system panel/taskbar (tint2), this can be solved by SIGTERM the panel, but it's a "Borderless" mode rather than a proper fullscreen I think it's capped at 30fps, Wine Staging gives no improvements. This is a smartphone game after all, expect nothing crazy :) The other game from this series (Sid Meier's Ace Patrol) can be installed on the same prefix without problems and will run out of the box! ~·~·~·~·~ I uploaded some screenshots (comparing Wine vs Wine Staging) on my blog: https://manerosss.wordpress.com/2016/06/12/gamingonlinux/ ~·~·~·~·~ Antergos + OpenBox Nvidia 367.35 Wine 1.9.14 Gallium Nine (AUR) Phenom II x2 511 Gainward GTX 650 1gb 4gb ddr3 500GB HDD 7200 rpm
