I looked up my favorites, based on my experience in the past with unsupported games. Long ago, I tried using Wine, way back before Steam even had a native Linux client. I managed to get Steam to run through Wine but never succeeded in getting any game to run beyond a loading screen. That was ages ago, though.

Things have changed since then. Steam not only has a Linux client, but also has Proton which loads most Windows apps (it's marketed for games, but in reality it will work on Windows apps).
