What works
The game installs and starts if sound is not enabled in winecfg. The game will work for a little bit, and allows for names to be entered in the text box as opposed to the gold edition. If sound is enabled the game crashes. With sound disabled the game crashes in 2 or 3 moves with the following message.
fixme:avifile:AVIFileExit (): stub!
err:win:WIN_GetWindowLong - replaced invalid offset 10 with 8
What does not
Game Play is buggy, the game crashes
Workarounds
What was not tested
Heralds, sound can't be enabled in winecfg or the game crashes.
Hardware tested
