Things to run old games with

DOSBox

The best DOS emulator out there. That’s what I use to run my old games and it does the job perfectly.

Virtual PC

A virtual machine from Microsoft. Good for installing Windows 95/98 on it so you can run old Windows games.

ScummVM

One of the best porting projects. Runs all LucasArts adventure games, most Sierra adventures games and MORE!

NAGI

Updated interpreter for the old Sierra games using AGI engine, but ScummVM does this too now.

FreeSCI

Updated interpreter for the old Sierra games using SCI engine still very work in progress. ScummVM runs SCI games too now, making this obsolete.

EDuke32

The only living port of Duke Nukem 3D which also happens to be very good.

ZDoom

In my opinion this is the best Doom port of all!

Doomsday Engine

Another great Doom engine port with more added graphical features than any other.
