Well, the summary says it all really.
The game hangs after the splash screen when run with the wine executable (I found I couldn't even ctrl-c out in the terminal window) but when run with winedbg I found I could just wait for the wine-dbg prompt to appear and type 'quit' and the game would run normally (except for the cursor)
