           Summary: Nancy Drew: Danger by Design exits on game start
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.0.1
          Hardware: x86-64

Nancy Drew: Danger By Design is 2 disc cd game. I have ISOs created from
original discs that I am installing from. Setup.exe works fine -- I choose to
change the install location to C:\ND\DangerbyDesign\ because previous attempts
to run game from the default location result in it looking for a CIFTree file
in the C:\ND\DangerbyDesign directory. That's not the issue.

When installed correctly, the game appears to start, the screen goes black,
resolution changes to the game's chosen 640x480, and then the game quits
(leaving my linux desktop resolution in 640x480 mode). This is the issue.

I assume this is a crash, but I either haven't found, or don't understand the
outputs of the WINEDEBUG logs well enough to diagnose the issue. Any way that I
can help you help me would be appreciated.

This is still an issue on Wine v9.3. Game 14 (Danger by Design) is also not the
only Nancy Drew affected. Games 13-15 all exhibit this behavior.

Game 13: Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon
Game 14: Danger by Design
Game 15: Creature of Kapu Cave

Games 13-15 appear to be only Nancy Drew games affected by this, as I've been
able to successfully run Games 1-12 and 16-32 with little to no issues.

Additionally, I tried running the games via Lutris to see if anything would
change, and it did: On Lutris, if you toggle the "dgvoodoo2" option, the games
will boot just fine. They perform terribly, and the cursor is extremely laggy,
but it's still something, so I figured I'd let it be known, here, in case it's
useful.
