That's very weird. It worked for me with Wine at some point in Debian 64bit and 32bit.

As a side note it's annoying that you need vcruntime140.dll to run a program and I guess it's not possible to include it with the game like for example SDL2.dll and others, because it has to be installed. I'm not saying this, but sometimes some people try these games at work and you can't often install anything by yourself.

Yeah, from what I've gathered, it's not possible. It needs that library because of libtcod.

Libtcod sucks so hard.
