Bottles is a GPL3 licensed, amazing tool to use in Linux operating systems that support flatpaks. It allows one to interface with Wine without having to tinker with complicated prefixes and possibly polluting your file system and packages.

If a video game you want to play is not available on Steam’s DRM store or you have a local copy of it, you can easily use Bottles to be able to run those games and integrate them into your desktop.

*Winblows games that refuse to run under WINE are not included.

    Love Bottles, it’s been so useful for me. Sadly always had issues with Lutris despite it seeming to work well for most people.

    I use Heroic launcher for most things, and Bottles as a fallback for any other games it doesn’t support, hasn’t failed me yet.
