You have to download the game using the Amazon Games App on Windows--or at least I did. Once the game is downloaded, I moved the game folder to my Linux Gaming PC and added it to Steam as a Non-Steam game. I had to set the compatibility Proton to version: 6.3-8 because the newest version wouldn't work with it.

What about the Heroic Games Launcher? (Is the linux launcher for Epic, GOG and Amazon Prime games)

I didn't know about it. I will try it next time Prime has a free game I want. I tried Lutris but I believe Amazon is blocking the login for them. Thanks for letting me know.
