What works

Installs flawlessly, minus a few strange glitches. During install, it displayed:

Installing "ProductName"

Please wait while the Setup Wizard installs ProductName.

Short of that, install went off without a hitch.

What does not

Will not play, executed the game, and it appears to sit there for a moment, then crash out

Additionally, when I tried to uninstall the game, it was listed as "ProductName" instead of it's actual name, and has since refused to uninstall. Going to have to remove it manually I suppose.

Workarounds

What was not tested

All aspects of in-game play (Game does not run).

Additional Comments

I was rather hoping this game would run, I may try another install with custom directories. I noticed that on occasion wine will have issues with directories containing strange characters, the one in this case being: â„¢.
