What works
The installation ran properly, and completed a transfer of files without difficulty.
What does not
The game itself could not be run. Shortly after starting, the game "encountered an error and had to close." No later addition of DLL files (including the recommended mfc42.dll and Patchw32.dll) produced an effect, and attempting to change settings from WINE configuration produced a, similar, negligible result.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Actual gameplay could not be tested due to the failure of a successful game start.
Hardware tested
