You have two options:
1. get the GOG.com versions, they come with preinstalled and pre-setup Dosbox and are basically click and go, as idiot-proof as they come
2a. get a DOSbox frontend like DFend, it'll take care of all the commandline options and let you make profiles for games so you can just run them from the list. Could be tricky if the defaults aren't configured properly in the first place, though.
2b. Pirate a collection of games with a frontend already preinstalled.

As for recommended stuff, pic related (someone link the other one with floppy disks), or the wiki:

Sorry, but seeing this list flared up my autism.

I thought everyone hated this one, along with 9.

I thought everyone hated 3.

Neither top-down nor sidescrolling.

The Bitmap Brothers wasn't the subtitle of the game, it's the name of the devs.

What's with the blatant misinformation, /vr/?

So I'm going to start indexing every msdos game, downloading them, and testing them, then putting them all in a torrent for you all. This will take some time, since I'm testing all of them on 2 systems, and single handly downloading and indexing without scripts.

this isn't in 70 to early 90's pc general because mid - late 90's dos games.

Only 4 buttons? DOS games. Can work quite well for racing games.
