You should try Ctrl-Alt-F1 / connecting to the box from SSH to get a
text console on the box that you can use to kill X or the game. If
that fail try to kill X with Ctrl-Alt-BkSpc (you need to enable it
first). Failing that the Magic SysReq trick is a somewhat less violent
way to reset the box than the reset button...

You should try getting a log and posting it here / to pastebin. (A
hard reset might prevent the relevant entries from being written to
the log)

See http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log

Also posrt details about your hardware (especially whether you are
using the 32/64-bit version of Ubuntu, your graphics card model and
driver version...)
