If you're not sure about how to edit a wiki, you can also post in this thread.

Game title Status Mhz DOSBox version1 Year Display mode Link to conf file2 Comments
Civilization 1 Perfect ? 0.74 [1]
Commander Keen 4 Works well 700 0.74svn 1991 EGA Cycles set to "max", almost perfect but occasional slowdowns.
Dungeon Keeper slow ? 0.74 it is very much sub 5FPS and I had to overclock to 850, whack up DosBox's cycles to a mad amount, and stick on the dynarec -[2]
Eye of the Beholder (series) Works well ? 0.74 [3]
Jazz Jackrabbit 1.2 (CD) Works well 850 0.74 1995 VGA See instructions here. Might have weird bug of "left" being held all the time... Okay at 500Mhz, "More-or-less fullspeed" at 850Mhz[4]
Master of Magic Works well ? 0.74 at low clock runs great, but a few 'traqnsitions' (when switching between screens) slow down, so you have to run clocked up so that its playable; I didn't complete any sessions, just fired it up and fiddled around, but looks like it'd be playable. -[5]
Privateer slow ? 0.74 tried privateer and i thought it was too slow to play -[6]
Second Reality (demo) Playable 500 0.74 at 500mhz it didn't work so well, but setting the pandora to run a bit faster it was pretty smooth on most parts with sound. -[7]
Star Trek 25th Anniversary Works well 500 0.74 "I have no idea if it's actually full speed, but all the graphics look sweet, the sound and midi music play fine and the mouse / touchscreen is very useable!" -[8]
Warcraft 2 Playable ? 0.74 SVGA being in SVGA does slow things down quite a bit, but with some overclocking it actually plays pretty well; with a lot of action going on it might slow down, but you can definitely play the first couple levels (I did) in the scenario -[9]
Wacky Wheels slow ? 0.74 VGA tried wacky wheels and its very slow -[10]
Wizardry 6 Perfect ? 0.74 [11]
Wizardry 7 Perfect ? 0.74 [12]


1The latest, 0.74svn, was released on October 15, 2010.
