BTW, we should probably compile a list of those games which
are compatible with wine on Linux.  Many of them are self-voicing
and do not require a screen reader to be played, so they are perfect
candidates for wine or a similar emulation solution.

To make a start, in my tests I found that the following game works on
linux with latest wine:

(with the exception of multiplayer mode which is unimplemented in wine)
