"Netflix for games" has proven to be far from the ideal solution.

I do wish they'd include some CRT shaders on their version of DOSbox though. Lots of those games' pixels were never meant to be seen by the naked human eye.

    You can swap out their dosbox.exe with a version that includes CRT shaders, such as DOSBox Staging or DOSBox-X.

    Or you could wrap the existing DOSBox window in an external shader using ReShade, it's a universal post-processing injector that can add a CRT filter. That way the emulator they wrap the game in remains untouched, you're just modifying the visual output.

    My search also found all-in-one frontends called ExoDOS and LaunchBox/RetroArch to do this to a whole library of GOG games so that you don't have to do it individually to each.
