See bug 22383, bug 22557, bug 23081, and bug 23730 for other reports of flickering with this game. Do 'winetricks strictdrawordering=enabled' and/or 'export WINEDEBUG=-all' help?
It's not bug 22383 because StrictDrawOrdering=enabled does not fix it. Bug 23081 is not the same either because the entire screen flickers and becomes corrupt, not just the shadow under the character. Bug 23730 does not match either because the mouse does not have to be moving for the screen to flicker. Once the game has total fullscreen focus at my full resolution of 1600x900 (with no wine desktop emulation, and no taskbar visible) the screen goes haywire. Here is an error I've just noticed:
ERROR: Could Not Find D3DKMTEscape in gdi32.dll Could Not Find D3DKMTOpenAdapterFromHdc in gdi32.dll
