for those who have problems with non-existant Z-buffer. The Serious Sam engine doesn't seem to specify that it really needs a Z-buffer and hopes for the standard Z-buffer depth of 16 bits. This is not quite correct behaviour and doesn't work with wine-0.9.57 and upwards.
To fix this open the ingame console and type:
gap_iDepthBits=24
ApplyVideoMode()
More information about the bug and fix in:

Greets,
Tobias Jakobi
EDIT: The demo works perfectly for me (wine-0.9.58)
