Explanation:
------------
After launching the game and starting a new save (new game button), the game
will play a brief video then begin a loading screen: but this loading screen
freezes partway through.

Going through the Wine log shows messages like this when it happens:
"170304.455:0020:01c4:err:sync:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 02AE36E4 "?"
wait timed out in thread 01c4, blocked by 0238, retrying (60 sec)"

and I'm forced to kill the process as a result.
As such, I can't play the game... *sadface*
