Missing libraries?

I decided to make a separate topic about its libraries

I have an iMAC 2007 WITH OSX 10.7.4 and installed it using a blank win xp bottle, but the game failed to run properly (blue square with backness). In the manual it states that:

Legend of Grimrock uses the following third party libraries. See the accompanying license file for details.

  • Lua 5.1.4 Copyright (c) 1994-2008 Lua.org, PUC-Rio. -> I found v5.2.1 and lua51.dll is in the install folder
  • LuaJIT Copyright (c) 2005-2012 Mike Pall. -> I found v1.18
  • FreeImage Copyright (c) Initial Developer. -> I found v3.15.3 and Freeimage.dll is in the install folder
  • Zlib (c) 1995-2010 Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler. -> I installed it from Crossover, but had no effect
  • Libogg Copyright (c) 2002, Xiph.org Foundation. -> I found v1.3.0
  • Libvorbis Copyright (c) 2002-2008 Xiph.org Foundation. -> I found v1.3.3
  • Freetype-2.4.8 Copyright 1996-2002, 2006 David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg.-> I found v2.4.10

Do I need to install the others? The uncompressed folders contain a lot of files and I have no clue which to select for installment. Crossover won't let me install a .dll file anyway.

I managed to get the game to work with the wine wrapper mentioned in the other Grimlock forum post, which makes me wonder if it's not library related.

I'm going to recommend a steam bottle. See if that works. I didn't have to do anything special and it worked fine.
