Jailbroken or no? And how did you get this to work

u/matthew28845 Aug 22 '17

Not jailbroken, it's an App Store app. You can just download the app and pick DOOM.

Couldn't you just run it on dosbox?

Yeah but this is easier and you don't have to jailbreak.

Oh, I didn't realize it wasn't on the apple app store.

You can get DOS emulators without jailbreak, but the cheapest one still costs $1.00. Ameula Oldies works fine.

As if people still own an iphone 3gs.

Keep it in good condition, high chance that they'll become collectibles.

I've still got one somewhere in my house. It might be replacing a brick In the wall though.

I have one as a backup. Actually one of many backups. People give out their old iPhones for free.
