Playing Starcraft on Linux


» Follow me on Twitter

Yes, I know StarCraft is already a bit old and that newer and more beautiful games have come out but hey, you can’t blame me because I love playing it. :D  Anyways, I didn’t know that installing and playing it on Linux was easy.  My Linux distro is Debian and here’s what I did.

  1. Install wine: as root, I typed “apt-get install wine” without the quotes
  2. Inserted the StarCraft CD and browsed to it using my favorite file manager - thunar
  3. Double clicked setup.exe and followed the instructions

Then after the installation, all I did was look for the StarCraft link in my menu list and poof! It worked like a charm.  No hassles whatsoever.
