still not clear, what are you trying to avoid? some things run inside a wine prefix, but some prefixes may have symlinks to some folders in $HOME
like... dependencies installed in a wine prefix are isolated as in they are gone if you delete the prefix, but if the Documents inside the prefix links to $HOME/Documents that would leak out of the prefix

oh, ok i see. I was asking because games that could have viruses, i like to know if they can do something in a Linux machine. Thanks

you can use Heroic Flatpak if you want to be extra safe, flatpak allows you to control how much access games can have to the system
