MagicBox plays DOS games on your phone. If thats what you wanted, you found it. Doesn't feel too janky/awkward thanks to a very customizable control set up, this emulator mostly shines with point and click/turn-based games but I've managed to play real-time games like Elder Scrolls: Arena without too much trouble

This makes old dos game even easier to play by giving you the ability to create touch friendly controls. Binding keyboard keys to touch spots on the screen takes some effort but is such an awesome feature. I wish I could do the same on PC for mouse clicks.

If you cant figure out how to use physical mouse, mouse down to switch between cursor and fps mouse

Excellent port of DosBox to Android. Works very well except for swapping to another app. When I switch to another app to view a document for copy protection, the game resets causing a loss of data. Is it possible to maintain memory state when one swaps apps?

Don't bother, stick with Retroarch. This emulator is not worth the hassle.
