most games i played in the dos era were pirated, freeware, or edugames. they were unheralded, but i had fun with em.

bodyworks voyager - a ship-combat shooter based on the bodyworks education software.

hoyle's card games, vol1 - at least i learned gin rummy.

stunts - god i loved this game. there's still not a modern-day equivalent that has the sheer amount of track customization this one did. this one is still on both my xp and win98 machines.

battle chess - dad tricked me into learning chess with crushed pawns and swallowed queens

mah jongg

star goose - overhead shooter. with a goose. in space.

in later years, i got into the quakes, the dooms, the nukems (wasn't allowed to play violent games when younger) but i did all that using win3 or later. these are teh games i actually played on dos.

This game deserves a remake.
