Internet Archive launches nearly 2,400 classic MS-DOS games you can play for free

The new browser-based emulator is still in beta, so you might see some bugs, but it includes a huge range of classics. That includes the likes of id Software’s Commander Keen, the apocalyptic RPG Wasteland, the originalPrince of Persia, early FPS games like Wolfenstein 3D, and many more. There’s evenMario Teaches Typing. As with past releases from the Archive, there are no instructions for how to play each game, so you’ll need to do a bit of experimenting — but that’s all part of the charm. Check out all of the games right here.
