AppDB is the canonical resource for this kind of question: https://appdb.winehq.org/

-> Returns https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=applicatio... , which says it's currently classified "Garbage" as of 2.0-rc2.

BTW if you find you need multiple versions of Wine for better compatibility with different apps (and probably even if you don't), PlayOnLinux is also a great tool.

In my experience, AppDB is mostly useless for answering this kind of question. It's right maybe 30-40% of the time with the rest being one of:

1) Says it doesn't work when it works fine on default settings

2) Says it works and I spend hours and hours messing with settings trying to get it to work before giving up.

3) Only reports a version of my application that is so out of date that I don't care.

Granted I mostly use applications, not games, so perhaps it's better with games.

"crashes immediately upon launching"

But there was a screenshot of the main menu on Wine! Maybe it was some experimental branch of Wine or something.

Ah that's sad to see. Maybe someday
