Everything worked out of the box. At first, I have noticed small smoothness issues, but https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gamemode helped.
Everything works, except video when running 3d benchmarks. Doesn't affect gameplay though.
Except the lack of save game, the game worked as expected.
No possibility to save the game. I had to have it running in the background and not rebooting my OS.

WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/11040/pfx wine DXSETUP.exe

I struggled to save the game at times, the workaround that worked sometimes was changing the game resolution, restarting the game, saving, changing resolution back, restart and continue. It not always work though.
The game was crashing from time to time, probably due to some graphics issues.
The game seems to be most stable with the lowest possible resolution. I had occasional crashes and problem with saving game state. Sometimes simply moving the game to different workspace allowed to save the game instantly. Nevertheless I was able to finish the game, but it wasn't fully pleasant experience.
