Wrath Of Earth being one of these - in Dosbox, I've never been able to get the sound to work right, and sometimes the HUD screws up. It works nicely on my 486SL-25 laptop, except that the dynamic HUD colours look kinda weird and I only have a PC speaker, so the sound doesn't work. I guess that's what happens when you code an entire game in Assembler.
