I was able to run the game on my AMD Mini PC on Mesa using wine-10.10-staging-tkg-amd64, using DXVK (default settings in Lutris).
The game ran at about perceived ~40fps at 1440p on Ultra settings. Did not measure the FPS though. Definately playable, also could probably lower the settings. No graphical glitches as well on mesa.
Only tweak required is the registry winedbg one, besides the bleeding edge wine build.

Using Mechangel's registry tweaks and github/Kron4ek's wine-10.10-staging-amd64.tar.xz
build in Lutris, I was able to run the game without any graphical glitches or performance issues.
The game ran at full frame rate on Ultra / High default settings.
Besides setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug
to winedbg
and using the bleeding edge tkg build no other tweaks were required. I installed the game using the 1.20 launcher installer exe.

Able to run game version 1.6 with Lutris and Wine-Staging-Tkg, but graphical errors make the open world unplayable
- VKD3D - Did not work
- DXKV (v2.6.2) - Missing/invisible surface textures
- WINED3D - Face meshes become black vertical planes
The graphical errors I experienced (probably due to NVIDIA drivers) make the game unplayable as ground and surface textures are missing in both WINED3D and DXVK. I was able to get the game to launch with the steps shared by players of Strinova, so if you want to try...
- Install Lutris + Wine-Staging-Tkg as your runner, create prefix
- Edit your registry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug setting Debugger to just "winedbg".
- Download Windows installer from the Infinity Nikki website
- Run the setup launcher which will download a 1GB file and click game update afterward
- There will be pop ups to install things (Visual Studio C++, Unreal), progress the dialogs by clicking yes/install/uninstall/close.
- ACE error will pop up, close that and try updating the game again, and it should download the rest of the game
- DO NOT CLOSE THE WINEDBG WINDOW
- The actual game should launch and ask for account creation or login.

Couldn't launch the game
Doesn't even start

It does NOT support Linux desktops
SteamDeck=1 %command%
ACE (Anti-Cheat Expert) blocks Linux desktops (but allows Steam Deck!). I also couldn’t run the game in a hidden VM. Such a shame.

Launcher runs, game doesn't
Why does it run on the Steam Deck but not my desktop? T_T
Doesn't work
玩不了

Launcher starts, crashes when you hit 'play'
Open-source Linux-native dressup gacha games when? :(
Welp, another game that blocks regular desktop users and only allows Steam Deck users. How disappointing.

installs, updates, does not go beyond the launcher, crashing.
tried with both Proton 9.0-4 and Experimental

Another great example of ACE ruining the playability of games.
Even if the developers want to include the steamdeck as ACE is capable of doing, this should not pass any verifiction whatsoever.

Game doesn't start
The launcher starts. When you click play, the launcher closes. That's all.
Installs, launches the launcher, but once you press start game it dies

Anticheat only authorized steamdeck hardware
This is using the Steam official release, launcher v1.2.1.

Anticheat
Not work in desktop kernel, just Steam Deck.
Opens the launcher, then the anticheat quietly prevents launching the game unless it's on a Steam Deck.

Anticheat broken
It's a single player game ffs -_-

installs, does not start.
had fun playing on ps5 but not being able to run on my linux box sucks.
Anti cheat blocking linux devices that aren't steam deck

Garbage anticheat blocks linux players
Steam deck hardware locked.
Just like MECHA BREAK and Strinova. No SteamDeck=1 does not work.
