What software can I use to run Windows Game over Linux OS?

I know a few software like Wine, PlayOnLinux and Virtual Machine but still looking for other option.

Thank you!
Playing windows game via streamed it . Like liquidsky and other cloud pc service that allow to play many game with streaming based system
Simply download SteamOS and you can run the most popular games from Steam. It's basically an Ubuntu with custom user interface.

SteamOS can't be installed in my VPS, that is why I just need an APP than can possibly install a WINDOWS game.
I think that Wine is the best one but if you need something other try Crossover (buy/trial) or cedega (free, based on wine).
IN my experience Liquidsky was the best, I have tried it and It runs very smooth although It is a bit expensive

You won't be able to play games on your VPS. Some VPS provider allow to use Windows 7 or 10 but there is the very high latency and usually these VPSs don't have GPU.

and even if you have a GPU (probably it is VMware SVGA series) you cannot run a game because some game doesnt wanna run in virtual machine and also if you connect using RDP you actually isnt using the machine GPU . you are using the RDP GPU and basically no GPU
Wine is best you can run windows games in linux in this way easy and simple there are also other ways but this way is best
