Why do you need to go to the website to launch the game? Hasn't it got its own launcher?
If, on Windows, there's some kind of browser integration which launches the game client while on the game website, I'm afraid that won't work on Linux, at least not without some manual work.

You shouldn't worry for the installation location, unless you need to manually apply some kind of patch to the game which needs to be manually extracted inside the game dir.
wine creates a so called "wine prefix" when launched for the first time (the default is .wine in your home directory), inside of which you can find a drive_c folder containing a fake Windows install and your programs, which are fooled to believe that they're installed on a Windows' C: drive. So there's no way your program can make a fuss for not being installed in a "regular folder".
I guess the "software manager" you're referring to is the YAST software center found on Suse. Wine has no integration with it (it wouldn't make sense) so you won't find anything installed with wine inside it.
To launch the game, you should find icons for it inside your Desktop folder (in your home directory) and in a dedicated "Wine" section of your applications menu, as wine produces the equivalent of Windows desktop icons during software installations.
