Can I play Age of Empires 2 on Ubuntu? [duplicate]

The only reason I still use W indows is to play this game. I tried before and couldnt get it to work on Ubuntu and I wonder if it is possible now.

Solution 1:

I personally vote for Playonlinux. Playonlinux is a third party wine wrapper and has the necessary script for AOE2.

You can install Playonlinux by

sudo apt-get install playonlinux

then in Playonlinux install menu choose Age of Empires 2 and prepare your disk with AOE2, then follow the install steps on the screen.
