    How do I play windows 95 games on windows 11?

    Those games are much too old to play on Windows 11. You could try running them in compatibility mode, but I doubt you'll be satisfied.

    Here's how I play Windows 95 games: in a Windows 95 virtual machine on Hyper-V. The best way to play ancient games, often the only way, is to virtualize the operating system for which they were designed.

    Playing a Windows 95/98 game on Windows 8

    I have the game "Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim" that I loved to play. It is compatible with Windows 95/98. How can I get it to play on my Windows 8 laptop?

    I have tried running the compatibility troubleshoot, right clicking and going into the properties of the game and choosing play compatibility with windows 95 and windows 98, running as administrator, etc. I remember being able to make it work before on another
    computer, but I'm not sure what I did.

    I've also tried downloading the DOSBox.

    Any thoughts or help?
