I like them, I raised my niece on them in the early 2000's. My daughter plays them on her android tablet now.

Check out DOSBox Distro:

a lightweight Linux distro (tinycore) which boots off a usb flash drive and goes straight to DOSBox.

I recall they were relatively common multimedia pack-ins back in the day, and that they were regarded favorably by the press at the time.

As they are supported by ScummVM, they are not likely to be forgotten.
