Can I run natively on Linux Windows 10 games? That's the Wine I want to taste! :D

Do a search on Youtube ("gamename + wine + linux" usually works). When a game becomes playable under WINE someone eventually will publish a video showing the gameplay and/or any tricks, when necessary, to play the game.

You might also be interested in Playonlinux (.com) which is a GUI frontend to WINE which helps in installing games and other software.

Most games work nowadays, but there's still some that don't. Check https://www.protondb.com for a compatibility list.

For many of them you can and the number of unplayable games is gradually shrinking.
