You mentioned wine. Are you referring to the Windows emulator for Linux? If so, you will need to ensure you have all of the other dependencies that windows needs. Ensure you run windows update and have all of the Microsoft visual c runtime packages. Sorry if this isn't the most direct answer, but the problem is with Wine.

Yeah, I figure something weird is going on with wine itself. It’s quite rare these days but, alas, sometimes it does happen. Not sure it’s outright missing stuff because I’d imagine it wouldn’t launch if that was the case. But may be that Heavy Hearts in particular has some finickyness with dll versions or whatnot.

I might play around with it some more, see if I can trick it into working properly. If I figure something out I’ll be sure to update here

For me it worked using the default “Gaming” prefix using Bottles. Here’s everything you’ll need:

https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.usebottles.bottles

I’d be more keen on figuring out what that’s doing and replicate it in Lutris rather than getting yet another bottle manager but this is a great place to start, thx. Will have a fiddle about

So… this has been a while. I tried (very very briefly) to replicate the stuff that Bottles lists for its “Gaming” prefixes but didn’t have much luck. HOWEVER I then installed Bottles and gave it a go and, as far as I can tell, things are working as intended now. I’m not sure if I’ll go back to try and replicate on Lutris, just to keep everything to the one launcher but, for the moment, I can play.

Could be worth a note somewhere in the description, dammitbird? “Game is not officially supported on Linux but users have reported success using the ‘Gaming’ prefix from ‘Bottles’”

I'm not entirely sure what your talking about, but the game is tagged as a windows only game.

I cannot offer support to any other OS. Glad some people have some success in emulating it.

I’m aware. Just thought it could be handy to have some readily-accessible info on this for other folks who may want to give it a go (with the appropriate disclaimer/reminder that, yeah, it’s unsupported/you’re on your own, etc…)
