Does SIMS 3 work on Linux Mint? (lemmy.world)

My wife (who current away from for a few months) enjoys playing SIMS 3. The only condition she has for installing Linux on her machine is if she can continue playing it there.

Now I know that Steam + Proton allows almost all games to run, but I am currently not in a situation where I can try it out on a laptop. I thought before proceeding, I'd ask the community's experience / opinion.

I can confirm that it works nicely (well, as nicely as this game can work) on Linuxes. I use the DVD versions but if they run, I have no doubt Steam does.
