IIRC I have tried the game with proton(and/or -ge), it never worked on those.

I'm probably just going to accept dosbox for the game (it also fixes some minor graphics issues with it). I'm mostly concerned about old game installers - but then again, gog/steam don't have those installers anyway, so it's only an issue if the user is adamant on using original install media or so.
