DOSBox ftw, right?

Lol of course. You can install it from any distribution repository.

Most of these old gaming technologies (DOSBox, ScummVM) have strong Linux roots, although DOSBox did admittedly start because of the sharp decrease of DOS support in Windows XP.

DosBOX works perfectly on Linux, used it for X-COM before :)
