Phoenicis PlayOnLinux is a piece of software which allows you to easily install and use numerous games and apps designed to run with Microsoft® Windows®.
Few games are compatible with GNU/Linux at the moment and it certainly is a factor preventing the migration to this system. Phoenicis PlayOnLinux brings a cost-free, accessible and efficient solution to this problem.
Here is a non-exhaustive list of the interesting points to know:
- You don’t have to own a Microsoft Windows license to use PlayOnLinux.
- Phoenicis PlayOnLinux is based on Wine, and so profits from all its features yet it keeps the user from having to deal with its complexity.
- Phoenicis PlayOnLinux is free software.
- Phoenicis PlayOnLinux uses Java.
Nevertheless, Phoenicis PlayOnLinux has some bugs, as every piece of software:
- Occasional performance decrease (image may be less fluid and graphics less detailed).
- Not all games are supported. Nevertheless, you can use our manual installation module.
