Comment on How to play old CD-ROM games on a modern Windows PC
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 1 day agolast time I tried it was Simcity 4, and I couldnt get it to install right.
But I’m not an IT/SysAdmin professional. I’m just a random idiot, so my capabilities with linux… while improving over the years, are still far from useful in most circumstances.

Bottles, Lutris, Heroicgameslauncher, Steam. Between those 4 you should be able to get atleast one of them to run an exe to install a game. I think Lutris like you said actually has a “Run install.exe” option if you can point it to the right spots.
Persinally im just a dummy myself and flail around in Linux until it works, I’ve found its much easier though if I can skip the install process and just point one of the above 4 directly at the games folder.
