There are some gotchas though: you need to install the windows build of any game you’re trying to launch this way, the native Linux builds won’t work and you have to edit the .info file for each game to add “-noprimaryconf” to the command that gets passed to DOSBox so it’ll ignore any local config and load only the ones supplied by GOG
