Which games are you thinking of? a LOT of stuff that has trouble under regular WINE (for example the aforementioned Winamp) runs with Crossover.
Not free but then again it is rather a lot less than a Windows license and it is far more capable than basic vanilla WINE. They do have a free Trial so you can see if they do what you need before making any commitments.
You can also look them up in Crossover's compatibility database:
https://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/
I looked up all the games you listed and all show as either Silver or Gold. Those ratings mean that they should run. The badges also say whether the application is offically supported by Codeweavers or not. I have personally installed some pretty odd stuff that is not even in the compatibility list and had it run like a top.
That's cool. Remember that Crossover is not an emulator.
Maybe a Crossover Linux test is in order for the benefit of those not in possession of a Windows license?
Remember Crossover runs things natively too. And Crossover can be as cheap as 39.95 depending on the support package you include with it (click on "More Options" and you see the choices).
Crossover is not a layer. It is an implementation of the Win32/RT API for OS X or Linux (depending on the version of Crossover). It is basically an up gunned version of WINE. It has a GUI but more importantly Codeweavers has added a lot more in terms of implemented APIs and how existing WINE APIs function. In fact Codeweavers run winehq.com and are the leading contributors to the WINE project.

As for your closed cages Crossover uses "bottles" like WINE but enhanced - makes sense since the bottle functionality was added to WINE by Codeweavers in the first place. Bottles can be built for a number of different versions of Windows (XP and every version thereafter including Windows 8) and they are reusable and even portable between machines.
I guess WINE can be called a layer. I tend to think of hardware compatibility layers (as in emulators) when I think layer. My bad.
