Have a look at /usr/ports/games/HeroesOfMightAndMagic for an example.
Additionally, my experience with CivCTP was to ignore the CD's install script
and instead copy the files manually. After installation, flag the executable
as coming from a Linux system using
% brandelf -t Linux civctp
Of course, this assumes that Linux emulation is enabled and that you have all
the dependencies installed. Note that I had some issues running this game as
an unpriviledged user but haven't bothered to figure out why.
Cheers.
