Experience retro gaming on your Mac more comfortably than ever before!\nWith DOSBox Buddy (DBB), you can manage, launch, and configure your DOS games \u2014 with just a few clicks (basic DOS knowledge is required, especially for game installation).\nThe app combines a modern, intuitive user interface with powerful features designed specifically to meet the needs of DOS gamers.<\/p>

DOSBox Buddy sees itself as a launcher and is based on the project\u201eDOSBox-x<\/a>\u201c\u00a0 which is required for the operation of the program.<\/p>

Key Features at a Glance<\/strong><\/h3>

Convenient Game Management<\/span>
Organize your entire DOS game library in one place. Import and export games including all settings in the practical .dbb format \u2013 perfect for sharing with friends or creating backups.<\/p>

Drag & Drop for CD- & Floppy-Images<\/span>
Simply drag and drop ISO, CUE\/BIN, IMG, MDF, IMA, or NRG files into the appropriate drop zone of the app. DBB detects the format, automatically converts it if necessary, and stores the images in the correct folder. You can also easily add your own preview images.<\/p>

Drag & Drop for Previewpictures
<\/span>Preview image per game via drag & drop.<\/p>

Automatic Configuration and Optimization<\/span>
DBB nimmt dir die Arbeit ab: Viele Einstellungen wie Soundblaster 16, Mausoptionen oder Laufwerkszuordnungen werden automatisch erkannt und optimal gesetzt.\u00a0<\/p>

Powerful Additional Features<\/span>
Create empty floppy images (720k or 1440k), use quick access to the C: drive, manage multiple configurations per game, and always keep track of your collection.<\/p>

Import\/Export & Compatibility<\/span>
Games can be exported along with all images and configurations. During import, paths are adjusted automatically so your games are immediately playable on other Macs.\nImportant: The game must already be properly set up before exporting, so the .dbb archive can be launched directly on another machine.\nDOSBox Buddy does not handle the initial game installation at the DOS level for you!<\/p>

Multilingual & macOS Integration<\/span>
The app is fully available in English and German and runs natively on macOS \u2013 including support for the latest versions.<\/p>
