Finding old computer games
Is there a DOS game that you loved and wished you had back? There are several sites that are keeping these games alive. Most games are probably single EXE files. It is interesting to note how small the files are. Remember that DOS worked with a limit of 640 KB of RAM. MakeUseOf gives four sites where free downloads of old games are available.
Keep in mind that these games were written for 16-bit DOS and may not run well (or at all) on your modern computer. Windows XP contains a 16-bit DOS emulator (not to be confused with the XP 32-bit command line) but Vista and beyond are not suited to 16-bit software.
