I have unsuccessfully tried to add Mortimer Beckett to steam. I have the games in question on a DVD. I don’t know if they are too old or not. If someone can suggest workable options that they feel i can use since i am a newbie. Thanks in advance!
You could try installing the game(s) through Wine. In simple terms it’s a program that allows running Windows applications in Linux.
It’s in the repos so you should be able to install through Software.Installing a graphical front-end like WineGui Bottles or PlayOnLinux will make using Wine a little easier if you’re new to it.
There’s no guarantee it will work as Wine can be a little fickle.Sometimes it works flawlessly,sometimes partially and other times not at all.
I will try what you suggested and get back to you. I am curious to know if anyone on this forum has been successful running Mortimer Beckett on Ubuntu?
