@evraire @eniko DOSBox. One of the modern branches. If you're aiming for maximum compatibility.

@eniko Good question: what is generally the best way to play DOS games on modern systems? I wonder if @dosnostalgic has any advice on the matter?

so my desk is bigger now and im gonna set my spare 2012 laptop up for linux after we get all the files off it. until then i'd like to use it for dos games, but i'm wondering the best way to go about it. i could try a bootable usb with freedos and sbemu, or i could do a portable install of some kind of flavor of dosbox
thoughts?
