You can normally add it to steam to see if proton will work, or if not, you could use heroic, lutris, or bottles, although normally if it doesnt work under proton and there isn’t a premade wine prefix in lutris or heroic, it will take some tinkering.
Which games are you worried about?
Highlandcow@feddit.uk 3 weeks ago
Pirates games or games downloaded off itchio mostly

Can’t you just download Lutris and tell it to run itch games via Wine? I have done that with one game from itch before but tbh it’s the only time I’ve tried it so it could’ve been a fluke.

Yeah I tried to run a number of games through wine and it was very hard to get anything running sadly

Itch is a bit spotty if you don’t want to configure your prefix and it doesn’t work under proton, but pirated games work fairly well in lutris using the official versions prefix
