how would i open a wine game in terminal on linux?

whats the command?

Using the console as you (not root user) change the directory to:

cd ~ (that’s the tidal character, otherwise cd /home/username/ as appropriate)
cd .wine (note the dot before the word wine, it’s a hidden directory)
cd drive_c (with under-score)
cd Program Files (note the back-slash and space between the two words, plus capital letters)
ls (list the available folders, determine which is your game, and then cd to it)
cd GameFolder
wine GAMENAME.EXE

You’ll have lots of information scroll along the terminal window, often useful for debugging things.

I’m not a game player, but I have successfully run applications this way.

Hope that helps!
