      Looks like it’s supported on proton, silver

      https://www.protondb.com/app/1315200

      So install it through steam and it should be playable

          Ah then what you want is probably umu launcher

          Then you can run whatever you want under proton, though this isnt “officially” supported so you might have an odd glitch or 2. But if it runs on steam proton fine enough, it shouldn’t be much different
