5 ★ Developer, thank you for responding to my earlier review. With the way this app single-loads games, I am very confused how I would first load Windows and then run a game. Can we do email? I did not see contact information on your website. Thank you.
5 ★ Best dos emulator on Android! It even runs much more smoothly and quickly than dosbox on my surface pro (dunno why) (ﾉω･､). Now I can migrate tons of my games purchased on GOG and play them on my phone!
5 ★ Awesome stuff! I can now enjoy all my childhood PC games away from home.
5 ★ Transparent keyboard rocks! Simple to create apps. I moved my Master of Magic folder from Linux to my nexus 10, hit the + and filled a couple fields-- job done, and it worked. Nice!
5 ★ Finally able to play Frontier: Elite 2 on the go, smooth gameplay & Bluetooth gamepad ftw!
5 ★ Ay i got to play daggerfall and other dos games just fine so a 5 for me.
5 ★ Great job this is so much easier!
5 ★ Greatest of all emulator's available on android , I recommend buyinf this app for all those retro gamers !!! 🤯🤯🤯
5 ★ pls can you make magic dosbox compatible with ps4 and Xbox one controller?? cus I bought it on my nvidia shield but when I try to play on my controller it doesn't work and when I remapping the ....... update: yes it work but there are another problem the problem is magic dosbox don't work with app that means when I press up or down button the app don't show what I choose it should show shadow on the buttons i select pls fix it
5 ★ Just fantastic. I am able to play a large variety of classic DOS games on my old Kindle Fire 7 (2015). Interface is easy to use. The customization options make playing most games a snap. I'm just enthralled. Best version of DosBox on Android hands down, and it allowed me to turn and old device into my gaming console of choice. I found a couple of the widgets that I couldn't get to work, and a few more system graphics to represent widget actions would be welcome. But, that's nitpicking. What works here, works perfectly. If I could give it 6 stars, I would.
5 ★ By far the best DOSBox you can have on Android. I will never understand how or why DOSBox Turbo is the one with more recommendations on the internet than this one. Magic It's way more intuitive to set up on both mobile and TV platforms, it supports all input methods including touch, mouse, keyboard and gamepads and it allows you to create custom layouts for each game that you can transfer between devices. It's also by far the fastest DOSBox Android build that I've tried. Oh, and did I mention the support for this app is great? Well, it is - the developer really seems to care. Highly recommended!
5 ★ By far the best Android DosBox. The sophistication, degree of customisation, and transferability of the touchscreen interfaces you can design for DOS games is astonishing. Support is top notch too. Other DosBoxes can just about make a game "playable", this is the only one to make them genuinely enjoyable. I've just completed Ultima Underworld on my phone, and was able to design an interface that worked way better than the original game's did when I played it back in 1992!
5 ★ This app is awesome, it really adds new content to my chromebook while keeping space constraints in mind. I do have one request if possible. Can frameskip options be adjusted in easy config. By default its set to frame skip 2. My chromebook is strong enough to handle skip 0 for a smooth experience. On a side note how do I set up a controller for it, I didn't grow up with DOS so im very new and I like to use it for Mega Man X.
5 ★ This app was put together and is supported by people who are passionate about DOS gaming. The support is fantastic, any issues I've had with game compatibility (which have been few and far in between) have been answered diligently. You can tell that the person who made this app cares about the integrity of his product. Highly Reccomended!
4 ★ Great emulator, possibly the best one on Android for Dos. Easy customizable controls and config for all games, and a nice little guide to start you off. Having trouble however with the widget layers, I used to have a portrait and landscape setup for Daggerfall, but now it only ever shows the portrait layer even if i hide it. besides that, it's basically perfect, ive already beaten TES: Arena using this, a game i would have never played otherwise. Thank you MagicDosbox Dev(s).
