Don't use daum. It hasn't been updated in a long time. I think DOSBox Staging and DOSBox-x both have glide support. Try one or both of those.

I tested it on DOSBox-X in glide pass-trough mode with nGlide and dgVoodoo, and in Voodoo emulation mode, also tested it on PCem with Voodoo 1 emulation. In all cases I get the same flickering text (although not as severe as your video), so it seems to be a bug on the game itself. Would be nice to test it on real hardware, but I don't have any of my old machines with me right now.
Yeah i think its voodoo1 game.

You need the "glide2x.ovl" file.
You can find it from the game CD#1:
3dfx/grtvgr.exe => You can probably open this in 7-zip or some similar tool (I'm on Linux, Archive Manager worked for me).
The file is in Glide/Drivers/Voodoo/Dos/
Copy the file in the same path with the game executable (DREAMSFX.EXE).
You also need to increase the memsize in DOSBox to 32 or the game will crash on startup.

this issue about "cycles" in conf file. when edit cycles like 440000 game is not buggy but inreasing cycles gives me this error.
