Each wrapper provides you with all the simple components needed to run a Windows program, but it's up to the user to install the rest of the needed components to make the program of choice to run. What it does is use Wine to create a separate mini-universe (wrapper) for each program you install (or multiple programs on one wrapper). PlayOnMac isn't a magical do-it-all program sadly.
