From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

First, you should learn about Wine prefixes. Arch Wiki has a good write-up about it.
After the game is installed, you need to edit that
setup.exeyou added as a non-Steam game and point it to the game's actual executable.Steam's Wine prefixes are usually located in
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata. This directory should have some text config files that you can read to find out what ID Steam has assigned to it.Also, you might have more luck with Bottles (available through
flatpak) which is more suited for such tasks.
