Incidentally, what does DOSBox mean? You mean playing the game via a command DOS prompt?
DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library which makes DOSBox very easy to port to different platforms. DOSBox has already been ported to many different platforms, such as Windows, BeOS, Linux, MacOS X...
DOSBox also emulates CPU:286/386 realmode/protected mode, Directory FileSystem/XMS/EMS, Tandy/Hercules/CGA/EGA/VGA/VESA graphics, a SoundBlaster/Gravis Ultra Sound card for excellent sound compatibility with older games...

It's not from Lucasfarts tho. Getting ready to install it and try it out, I'll let you know what I think. If you want to grab it yourself, head over here to FileRush and try it out.
