Hi!
Here is a link:

Read and try it.
It is a wine app which let you to run windows app without installing windows.
I tried this app for linux a long time ago.
I could play audio games.
But keep in mind only audio self-voicing games.
Cheers!

Would this app work for games like Quentin C's Playroom or the various Spoonbill games? I know these usually run with the NVDA screen reader input, but I think There may be an option on the Playroom to self-voice. Can anyone confirm? Thanks!

If you want to play in play room you don't need to install wine.
Moreover, it won't work. This app does not have a self-voicing system.
But you can open play room in safari and play simply.
Cheers.

Hello,
Audiogame Manager is a software which you control from the Terminal and it contains many PC audiogames. It is based on Wine. There's a post about it on this forum, but the main topic is on Audiogames Forum, in the new releases room and it's called Audiogaming in Linux and Mac or something like that.
Regards,
Alexandra

P.S. Oh, and it also has all the Spoonbill Games, I think. They were recently added.
