Roblox can now run on Linux using Wine

Grapejuice is a modern wrapper/management application that makes running Roblox through Wine easy. The goal of the project is in fact making it so that as little user interaction as possible is required.

The project is publicly available on my GitLab profile: https://gitlab.com/brinkervii/grapejuice

2022

grapejuice 3.40.14 requires Wine 6.11 for the Roblox game client to work.

Mint Linux 20.1 repository has Wine 5.0.3, which is too old for grapejuice. Therefore, just opening Synaptic Package Manager and clicking install is not going to get the job done.

Winehq can be installed in Ubuntu and Linux Mint via Wine apt repository

sudo apt-get install libgnutls30:i386 libldap-2.4-2:i386 libgpg-error0:i386 libxml2:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386 libsdl2-2.0-0:i386 libfreetype6:i386 libdbus-1-3:i386 libsqlite3-0:i386
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo apt-key add winehq.key

and

sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ focal main'

and

sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
