See: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/VMware

VMWare is a nice piece of software. It's not hard to setup...but you
do have to be somewhat familiar with compiling kernels to get it
working. You don't have to compile your own kernel, but you do have to
have the kernel development stuff handy in order to rebuild the VMWare
kernel modules.

 As long as you have a fast enough machine and enough memory, you
should be able to run your game. You may run into some sound problems
though... In the past, I've solved that by having VMWare use /dev/dsp1
instead of the default, but I have a SB Live card, which has 2 DSPs...

I would try a VMWare demo before buying it for your intended application.
