Damisoft Amiga Emulator
Damisoft Amiga Emulator runs Amiga games in a web browser, with Windows, Linux, and macOS also listed as host platforms. To start, users select a Kickstart ROM and load at least one ADF disk image; Kickstart is not included. The quick start supports up to four ADF images in drives DF0–DF3. The emulator covers Amiga 500, 2000, 3000, and 4000/030 models, and OCS, ECS, and AGA chipsets. Listed floppy image formats are ADF, DMS, IMG, EXE, and SCP; HDF and VHD are supported for hard drive images. Advanced settings include the Amiga model, CPU, chipset, RAM, video, audio, ports, ROMs, floppy drives, and IDE media, with PAL or NTSC video options. A PC keyboard can control games, though key combinations differ by game. The maker’s games index lists 73 links, including folders, disk images, and ZIP archives. The maker says a fast computer is needed and that mobile or tablet frame rates may be too slow. Turbo is the fastest speed mode, but it is not always compatible. The listed plan is free.
