However, the game does not start because when I click on the executable, it says it cannot load an image from the /media directory.  This game is, apparently, meant to be portable so all files are contained in folders below where the main executable is.  But wine can't find it. Or rather it says it "cannot open" it.  It's a PNG file but I doubt if that has any bearing.

Does running the app from its own directory help? How about using the
full path? Doing both?
