You may try older wine versions, Ubuntu packages can be found there: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html Unfortunately I don't see a Lucid section there, maybe you can go back to the version that comes with Lucid by default. If the game works in older wine versions and if you are a more advanced user, you may consider running a regression test. http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting Please have a look at http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=18454 which is probably the game in question, there seem to be several games in appdb with zuma in its names.
