I failed to run it with PlayOnLinux (i've some other games on PoL running, but vast mojority of games i play are Linux friendly). I bought the game from the website, not from Steam.

Could you give detailed steps please ?

My computer is this :

Linux Mint 17.2 64 bits Xfce
Intel Core i5 4590 (4 x 3,3 GHz)
MSI GeForce GTX 960 @ 2 Go
8 Go DIMM DDR3 PC12800
LCD 1920x1080
French system, AZERTY keyboard

This is for the standalone version: Follow the Screenshots for view the installed components, and this is it, i think :S

Thanks, the pictures helped a lot to install the right pieces together. I just couldn't install the last one, it said not suitable for 64bits system, but still the game is working nicely it seems.

For a new installation i install Evochron Legacy in Windows 10 and then move the complete folder to the evochron folder in the wine virtual drive

I only have Linux. OK, i have a Win7 drive "just in case" but i didn't connect it for several months.

I have some random crashes, i'm not sure they are related to Linux or Legacy. It can be in menu, mining, station, flying... Just crashes with a long log impossible to understand. I'm not sure i should report because i'm on Linux and it's not supposed to be supported...

I'm using atm wine 1.91stage... what version are using?

I think i broke my installation.

I was with WINE 1.9.0 Staging, i went to 1.9.2 then the game didn't launch at all. Back to 1.9.1 Staging. Same. Back to 1.9.0, same.
Now i can't launch the game at all. Damn...

Too bad this game is not Linux native...

I will reinstall it all now.
