Lost Company was made in 2010 and runs perfectly in Wine on PlayOnLinux. I didn't have any issues installing, configuring or playing as you can see in the video. It is a bit dated when compared to more recent FPS, but still fun and intense!

Unfortunately the DirectX 10 features do not run in Wine, but there is a workaround to force DirectX 9

After installing the game, navigate to this folder
/home/username/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/necrovision/drive_c/GOG Games/NecroVision Lost Company/Bin

Open config.ini in a text editor

Change this line to = 1
Cfg.RenderDevice = 1

Now the game will launch without any problems.
