I bought Legend of Grimrock this morning because it says it works in Ubuntu. However, it only comes with the windows .exe file. I've spent the last hour and a half trying to get it installed. Wine freezes up and overheats my computer. It is then unable to be killed with any process killer. My computer processor remains ramped up and screeching loud for like 30 minutes even without wine on after that. It's doing something pretty bad. I'm really frustrated. I just want to play this game. I don't understand why there is not a .sh file when it claims to work in Ubuntu? Does it have to use wine? Wine does not install this game.

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS btw.
