Could you build this?

No Building this requires statically recompiling a copyrighted x86 game binary to native Windows and ARM64, which demands low-level reverse engineering, binary analysis, and CPU/graphics porting expertise that vibe coding cannot substitute for.

What it would actually take: The work starts with disassembling and lifting the original x86 executable into an intermediate representation, then regenerating it as native code for each target, with the game's OS and graphics API calls remapped. It needs specialists in compilers, binary analysis, and graphics/audio subsystems, plus extensive manual debugging against the original game's behavior. It also carries significant legal exposure around the copyrighted asset and binary.
