Changing the location of Wine's My Documents?

Is there anyway to change the location of wine's My Documents folder for a single program or as an option when launching a program?

As Myst 4 puts it's save game folder in My Documents which ends up in my home folder and I want it in the games folder. But if I change the setting in winecfg it is changed for all my wine programs.

Put Myst 4 in its own wineprefix.

Thank you, that worked.
I assumed that if I gave it a new settings folder then the game wouldn't run because it needs old ones registry.
