I'm not sure if that is a good idea but either way all you need is for
wine to be able to 'see' the location the application is installed to
run it.

To do this run winecfg and go to drives, then create a new hdd that
looks at the parent directory to where you want to install all the
games.  So for example make a z: drive that looks at /usr/local/games.
 You can now install your games to your Z: drive and play them from
there.
