You can install to your default Wine (.wine directory in your HOME directory) by simply running:

wine VC_redist.x64.exe

It should be working by installing it to the default wine directory and using the downloaded wine 7.1 to run the game. If it's not working, then you can create a new (clean) Wine directory by a WINEPREFIX if you want. For example, this creates a directory named wine7.1 in your home directory and installs the visual runtime stuff there:

WINEPREFIX="$HOME/wine7.1" wine VC_redist.x64.exe

Then, you can use the downloaded lutris wine 7.1 with that new wine7.1 directory by using the WINEPREFIX path before the wine command:

WINEPREFIX="$HOME/wine7.1" PATH_TO_LUTRIS_WINE/bin/wine PATH_TO_GAME_DIR/Windows/LastDays.exe

Of course, you need to write the correct paths to the PATH_TO... stuff.

I suggest looking up Lutris, it's a GUI program and you can set up Games and other programs with it. It might be easier for you if you are not familiar with the command line (terminal). I'm not using the Lutris program, so I can't help with that, but you can find plenty of tutorials on YouTube and/or Reddit.

I tried with Lutris but couldn't access the winetricks menu...

Bah I give up for now, thanks a lot for your time and inputs.
