    Age of Empires II

    Does anyone know how to run this game in Debian? I heard of a XWINE application to do so, but I think it costs money. Anyone know of an easy way to run this game Thanks

    i heard of wine, but when i found it, it was only unstable with no stable version for Debian... i dont know if that has changed in the later months...

    works in wine

    mostly works in wine...

    fonts don't load for some reason, so you can't read the resource counts so the game is unplayable. I think this can be fixed but I stopped truying after a while.. worth a shot trying to get it working, wine changes quickly, its possible it might be working now

    You can add fonts using the fonts installer in the control panel - system administration. It is very easy.
