It sounds like Vulkan was the big blocker here, then? I'd be curious if everything ran fine with nothing but the OpenGL D3DX backend, Proton seems to suggest that the Nancy Drew games are fixed on recent Proton/DXVK builds.

Oh interesting - will give this a look!

Honestly this comment is the exact reason why this is such an interesting allegory - I didn't know Proton existed! And looking at it, it might be perfect for my use case. Appreciate the tip - will take a look!
