DOSBox is a free and open-source emulator which runs software for MS-DOS compatible disk operating systems—primarily video games.[5] It was first released in 2002, when DOS technology was becoming obsolete. Its adoption for running DOS games is widespread, with it being used in commercial re-releases of those games as well.
