That's a windows game. You need to install x86 Wine to run it. Look at docs/WINE.md for a tutorial on how to do it

Read the README. Once installed, with binfmt integration, just run x86 linux stuff without thinking of box86: it will be called automtically.

Can this ticket be closed now?

You can also take a look at the box86/box64 section of this blog entry: https://box86.org/2022/03/box86-box64-vs-qemu-vs-fex-vs-rosetta2/

Closing the ticket now.
