So what's wrong? Please help! I need it for an essential program.

This will never work.
The debs, you have downloaded are not for debian, winehq does not provide debs for debian.
Debian is using Multiarch and since wine is a 32bit application, you have to use Multiarch and the i386 debs.
Wine64 is the API for Windows 64bit applications (if it work), you will neve be able to start a "normal" 32bit win app with it.

The Wine-HQ page redirects to a link for downloading .debs for "debian sid".

I suggest you to read your link and then look again to your installed wine-packages.

Basically, all you had to do was

Code Select Expand

apt-get install wine winetricks libwine-openal:i386 libc6-i686:i386 libgpm2:i386 uuid-runtime:i386 libgsm1:i386 libv4l-0:i386 fonts-liberation libwine-gl:i386 libwine-alsa:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386

apt-cache policy wine
wine:
  Installed: 1.6.1-12
  Candidate: 1.6.1-12
  Version table:
