4 ★ Very nice Dos emulator. There are many possibilities for customization of input. I found some issues, though. There are problems with calibration of the joystick for some games and even calibrated it's difficult to use. The overlay buttons can be used for games like Tetris, but the app cannot register more than one of them being pressed simultaneously. Otherwise, I'm having fun playing turn based games.
1 ★ Pile of garbage just stops working. "Reconfigure hardware options" is all I get when trying to launch a game. What does that even mean?
5 ★ Works great. If you want sound, remember to tap menu (3 dots), Settings, DosBox Settings, and check Manual Mode. Exit the program and edit dosbox.conf in Downloads, changing pcspeaker to true. Restart the program. Now you'll have to type mount c /storage/emulated/0/Download/ and then type c: each time you start the program.
3 ★ This is a reasonable DosBox port, with the focus on DosBox setup whch allows you get games launcued and running, and it can even get Windows 3.11 running. However there's not enough customisation of the interface between touch screen and DOS available, so games tend to be harder to actually play than they could be. You can get them started, but are unlikely to play to completion.
1 ★ The app is broken! I'm using Android 8.1 and although DosBox 'works', it consistently comes up saying 'license check failed, cycles limited' even when the internet is turned on. The app hasn't been updated in years and you'd do well to avoid it or find a version that actually works. Save yourself the hassle and don't bother buying it as you can't use the full app anymore.
3 ★ I can see how great this app can be but unfortunately I cannot type anything into command line. Samsung Galaxy s8+
1 ★ Why is it that I cannot use software I have payed for? Even though Google Play shows that I have purchased it, I cannot use the software because the licence verification fails. I followed troubleshooting tips including deleting the play store cache and data, restarting and reinstalling but nothing works.
5 ★ The best emulation of Dos. Has all the commands. This app was very nostalgic for me. It felt like I was in the 20th century again! If only there was such thing as a 5.14" sd card, it'd be just like old times of my childhood.
2 ★ Requires an always-online connection, otherwise they call you a thief and limit the software that you paid money for. "License check failed. Cycles are limited." Might want to avoid it out of principle.
4 ★ Seems to work well for me, only use it to play old dos games though
5 ★ Love the app so I bought it and it's amazing but I keep getting license check failed but it doesn't matter as it is a small issue and there are fixes online so I just want to thank you for a really great app
1 ★ This app used to work great, but now it says it's not compatible with my current android version. The keyboard won't work and I can find any support on how to fix it.
3 ★ Even though I own the app, it tells me 'Licence check failed'. Updated review feom 1 star to 3 stars because the devs are working on an update according to a reply to an email I sent to the devs.
2 ★ License verification keeps failing. dosbox free had better features, and my phone doesnt support it. i dont want to play with 2000 cycles and horrible midi sounds. how can i get this sorted out?
5 ★ Great concept, looks pretty good. 1. How do I donate? This seems like a worthy project. 2. How do I use the keyboard? The onscreen keyboard only works with the Enter Key. Can't type any letters.
