I wanted to gather some more information before posting again, so here goes.

I was able to play the game to completion with wine 1.3.5 built with -O3. I was
about to say it worked perfectly, however when I tried running it without a
virtual desktop X froze during the opening video. Also I experienced a couple
hangs that seem to be avoidable by not clicking too fast, waiting for the
cursor to reappear before clicking again may be enough.

Starting with 1.3.6 the game would hang when trying to click past the butterfly
animation by the power plant. I was able to regression test this bug, reverting
the following patch allows versions up through 1.3.15 to work (all with -O3).

c876f250549e7f7ebb797dfed0e45f9f56805476 is the first bad commit

Unfortunately it seems there are other bugs / instability and some versions I
don't recall exactly would get past the butterflies but crash at other spots,
for example flipping the switch by the cabin. Also starting with 1.3.16 wine
crashes in the same spot (butterflies). I tried at least twice to get a
regression but was unable to; I don't know if this is because there are
multiple problems or if it just doesn't crash 100% of the time. I'm putting off
anymore testing for now since I don't know if any of this is actually relevant
or helpful.

As for the problem of it hanging or crashing without using -O3, I haven't been
able to get a backtrace using current wine no matter what I try. With 1.3.5
built with -O0 -g I was able to get the attached backtrace.
