How to make this game work on Linux
Here is how to do it on Ubuntu 64 bits 14.04. The same instructions should work also on Debian, and 32bits systems. The only issue is a bit "noisy" sound, and a framerate a tad slower than windows.

I use ~/.wines/MQEL for the dir name
The MQEL launcher I downloaded is MightyQuestSetup_248329.exe
sudo apt-get install playonlinux wine
playonlinux
... Tools > Manage Wine Versions: Wine Versions (x86) select 1.7.12
mkdir -p ~/.wines/MQEL
export WINEARCH=win32
export WINEPREFIX=~/.wines/MQEL
export WINE=~/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/1.7.12/bin/wine
${WINE}cfg
cd ~/Downloads
$WINE MightyQuestSetup_248329.exe
Say yes to install Mono package.
Dont create start menu & desktop icon if you dont want it
winetricks win7
winetricks corefonts tahoma
winetricks dotnet35sp1
Note: the above may install 2.0 but not 3.5. No worry, it still works.
Launch with script:
#!/bin/bash
export WINEARCH=win32
cd ~/.wines/MQEL/'.wine/drive_c/Program Files/The Mighty Quest For Epic Loot/Launcher' &&
~/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/1.7.12/bin/wine PublicLauncher.exe "$@"
