From what I read on the developer site, version 6.5 supports 300+ games whereas version 6.3 supports more than 700. Does it mean 6.3 supports more games than 6.5 does, or that 6.5 supports 300 MORE games than 6.3? It may sound like a stupid question but I'm a bit confused here. Thanks for your time and attention. 😀

It's version 0.65, and it is generally to be assumed that a game that
worked fine under some older version of dosbox will work correctly
in future versions as well.

Thank you so much for your prompt reply. Are there cases that run fine in the older version but become broken in the newer version?

BTW, I'm like finding my paradise when I discovered the DOSbox. It's like my dream come true. You know, the games that have the best stories are the old ones. I don't really fancy the visually-gorgeous-but-the-story-sucks kind of games. 😁

Thanks again. 😀

That happens by times, but it is very likely that those cases are already
mentioned on the forum.
It's no problem to have several different versions of dosbox installed,
just be sure to not mix the config files as those files are NOT compatible.
