Try using Proton, which is based on Wine but has many enhancements. I use the GloriousEggroll version which has even more enhancements and fixes on top of that. It can be downloaded here. Try the latest version and if that fails try an older one like 7.55.
Extract GE-Proton to a folder that you prefer. Open a terminal in the folder for your game's EXE. Then you'll want to type the path-to-proton/files/bin/wine64 (or path-to-proton/files/bin/wine for 32-bit games), and a space followed by the name of the game's EXE file. For example, this is how I would do it on my system. I have the releases of GE-Proton stored in .proton in my home folder:
Code:
~/.proton/Proton-7.55/files/bin/wine64 game.exe
A trick I like to use when having trouble running games with Wine/Proton is to rename .wine in the home directory to .wine.old and let Wine start from a clean slate.
