First of all, yes it's a hentai game. You can believe it's for my girlfriend or not.

I asked her if she'd like a Steam Deck and she said it fits how she'd probably play games, but she wants to play a bunch of games she got off MangaGamer and she wants to make sure they'd work on the Deck.

I have a thinkpad running Fedora so we installed one through WINE to try it out. Everything is working but all the text are these squares for missing characters.

Is there any easy way to install fonts and characters for WINE, or will we need to look at something like the ROG Ally instead?

@tombruzzo @linux_gaming In particular when trying to run games in Japanese I've had to manually download windows fonts and place them in the right location for text to display properly.

Here's the guide I used to fix this: https://learnjapanese.moe/vn-linux/#fonts-do-not-look-right

Thanks. I'll look into this as well. The game is in English but coming from a Japanese developer could cause the same problems
