Oracle VM VirtualBox (also known simply as VirtualBox) is a virtualization software and hypervisor developed by Oracle Corporation. Originally produced by Innotek in 2006, which was acquired by Sun Microsystems Inc., which, in turn, was acquired by Oracle Corporation. It's released for Windows, macOS, Linux and BSD. It has support for a wide range of guest operating systems such as Windows, macOS, Linux, BSD, MS-DOS, OS/2 etc., thus even being able to play games made for these platforms. However, its Video RAM (VRAM) limit is 128 MBs, and with 2D hardware acceleration, 256 MBs. So, today's video games made for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux may not work smoothly. It's better to use alternatives such as VMware Workstation and QEMU to play these games made for those platforms.
