What works
Installation. I was able to set a prefix for 32bit and install the game along with QuickTime 4.
You can start the game in software mode but nothing past that works very well. The main menu is garbled and you can start a game but I'll provide a screenshot of what it looks like.
What does not
The game
Workarounds
What was not tested

Currently, as of wine 2.4, the game cannot run using Software mode or Direct3D. It will crash shortly after starting the game.
What does work is 3dfx mode. You will need to install a 3dfx/glide wrapper in your wine installation for this to work

Controls
This isn't a mouse game! It looks like there should be a moving cursor in this game, however there is not. So don't think wine's input isn't working.
Use aswd for movement and the number keys for inventory/weapons. The spacebar activates whatever you're currently holding and the tilda key puts away whatever you're holding. Sometimes enter is used to active items, other times spacebar.
Saves
If you move you game folder from one machine to the next, for whatever reason, moving the Saves folder isn't enough. You need to do a fresh install of the game, move the Saves folder into the new installation and then copy the file in /Bin/stgo.pgo from the old location into the new location. It contains references to the save files for some reason and the game won't recognize your old save games without this one file.
