Hello all 
A suggestion for a game that may run well on Box86:
ts.turbosliders.com
This is the full game, one no longer needs to buy a license for it.
Closed-source Linux i386 binary (works well on x86_64 too if you want to give it a try at home)
Fun little racer similar to Slicks 'n Slide for those who were around in the 90's
Cheers, Magic Sam

New release of box86 & box64 https://box86.org/2024/05/new-version-of-box64-v0-2-8-and-box86-v0-3-6/
(compared to previous release, using callret & bigblock option can give more than 10% speedup in cpu bottleneck scenario, tested on the Pandora)

It's not designed to run OS/full System, but userspace programs. That's why.
I see. It seemed like it didn't require a kernel module but I don't know why it would.
This is a really really really cool project.
Why are some libraries emulated and some wrapped?
EDIT: and the performance is AMAZING!!!!!!!!

If I understand correctly, wrapping a library requires some code specific for that library. Doing so for commonly used lib is interesting but you can't do it for all libs.

Yes. Only a "few" library are wrapped (I didn't count, but more than 50). The others are still emulated. Also c++ library are not wrapped, as it would be too messy to handle in a reasonable way.
Thanks for the news for the game. It's not my type of fun games...but maybe someone like it.Hello all

I did a quick test and made a little video about it.
The game seems to run very nice (still with the old 0.3.5 version of Box86) but the little font is barely visible...see when i zoomed on options/keys.
I know that Airline Tycoon Deluxe was ported to Raspberry PI,
Do you know if this version of the ATD works on OpenPandora/Pyra?

Running X86_64 (Linux) Game Servers on ARM With Box64 - Slashdot
Though native Linux game servers have been scarce over the last two decades, "I've seen people using the Box64 emulator to play x86_64 games on ARM devices," writes Slashdot reader VennStone. "It got me thinking: why not apply this to game servers...? "I thought it would be fun to see if I...

Not sure if this has already been mentioned, but this project, integrated into an Android app, is pretty cool:

There is also Box86 used on the Portmaster on some Emulator Handhelds , at least I saw there is a folder called box86 on my Anbernic RG35XXSP whit MuOS
