Is anyone else having this problem, the games dowload and play but the size is just larger than my phone, about the size of a gameboy screen. I refuse to buy anymore games through this site. I can find no place to discuss this with the owners of the site, so sorry, NOT PAYING ANYMORE!

While your concerns are understandable, perhaps telling us what games you've downloaded and played that have these problems which might help us to determine the issues at hand?

Here are some questions that might help figureing out what the problem is.

- Were these games run via DOSbox or were these games more modern?
- What operating system were you running these games on?
- What is your graphics card?
- Have you asked GOG support for help?

Thomas_Lefler:
not really an answer.

my guess is you're running dosbox games in a window on a high resolution screen.

You didn't see the Support button at the top? Are you actually looking for help or just so angry ("AAAAAAAA") you need to rant?

It might be full screen. GOG's default settings make DOSBox put the computer into an extremely low resolution display mode (at most double the original res, so 640x400(/480). Sounds like a combination of this and the OP having their computer set up to centre low resolution modes instead of upscaling them.
There are two solutions, one getting DOSBox to do the upscaling, the other to get the graphics card or monitor to do the upscaling. I don't have the energy to explain either though.

same end result though.
often ive found dosbox games on other services have things upscaled beyond need.
