Try DOSbox for example: at the bottom of this list.



Blockout - If you thought Tetris gave you the ultimate (so-called) Tetris-effect, try playing this for 10-hours in a row…
It's Tetris, with an added dimension… literally.
Paratrooper - Hee hee, I love this game! As straight forward as they get, just don't let the paratroopers land, because four of them shall kill thee!
Prince of Persia - The classic! See how that guy moves!
...Alright, not that impressive these days, but back then this was the top of the top, and it is still good and fun to play.
Sherlock - The ultimate of the ultimate of logic-grid puzzle-games.
I played this more than was good for me.
Sherlock Android (external) - Nooo!! They ported Sherlock to Android. My life is doomed!
