MINIMAL SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
OS: Linux, Wine 3.5, wine-staging
Processor: 1.3 MHz Memory: 256 MB RAM Graphics: 32 MB Storage: 4 GB available space
How to install: The game does not need installation. Unzip the contents to a folder as desired, and then run the executable start file with a double click or from a ./start terminal .
- If you want to get the shortcut on the desktop, run the executable desktop file.
- The first startup can take 2-3 minutes while Wine is configured, so be patient. - If you are writing that you do not own the prefix folder, you are trying to run the game on NTFS and / or you are not the owner of the folder. This is done by changing the owner or loading the NTFS partition with the appropriate options.
If the game does not leave you, install wine-staging.
- You have to make the startup file executable to start. It has commands to make the other necessary files executable without your intervention. - If you want a working Alt + Tab, start the settings file, in the window that opens, go to Graphics, put a beaker on "Emulate a virtual desktop" and enter the resolution you are playing.
Tested on Arch Linux and Linux Mint 19.
