DirectX in Wine

I've tried to install the game "Caesar 3" on my Linux-box. It worked fine 
during the installation. The problem appeared when I wanted to play it. 
Caesar 3 needed the file DDRAW.DLL
  I found out that it was one of DirectX's .dll-files. Isn't Wine supposed 
to work with DirectX without installing it? Doesn't Wine have its own 
"DirectX-clone"?
  What should I do to tell Caesar 3 that it should use Wine's DirectX?
  I'm using the version of Wine that came with Mandrake 7.2 and there isn't 
Windows on my computer.
