How to Install Linux games from GOG

When I was on windows I purchased Master of Orion 1 + 2
On am on Linux now using Manjaro
I down load the file from GOG and it says " gog_master_of_orion_2_2.0.0.6.sh "
I am new to linux have tried to goggle what to do with this and no luck
Tried to use play on linux to download it and just get an error message.
If anyone can help I would be very happy.
Pc stats click on my icon. OS and drivers up to date.

use a shell and go to the location of the file. if needed use chmod +x gog_master_of_orion_2_2.0.0.6.sh to add executable flag. (you can check if its there using ls -al gog_*.sh )

execute the bash/sh script using:

./gog_master_of_orion_2_2.0.0.6.sh

if the installation doesnt start or some other error appears, do not fear. copy the output to a pastebin service and link it or format it in here. We will help you play on linux :)
