How to Contribute to or Contact DOS haven

DOS haven collects 21st-century DOS games and invites visitors to add to the list. The site's own navigation shows the practical routes: a Suggestions page, a Sources page, a Tools page, and a Latest comments feed where visitors already report broken links, announce their own releases, and ask for games to be added. If you want to submit a game, flag a problem, or just get in touch, those are the places to start.

What the site actually offers for contact

The homepage navigation lists four destinations besides the game list itself:

The site is hosted on high-voltage.cz, which is the only operator detail visible on the page. No contact form, email address, or social account is shown in the material available, so the Suggestions page is the concrete channel you can point to.

Submitting a game

The comments feed is the clearest evidence of how submissions work in practice. Several entries are tagged Suggestions and read like release announcements:

• "Another DOS release from me. S…" — Cyningstan
• "I created an Asteroid-like fas…" — Daniel Nguyen
• "Timmy Time Adventure is a plat…" — Loomattic90
• "Hi! I've been developing for a…" — Jordi
• "Please add the game Recoil by…" — Arconis

A reasonable submission therefore includes the game's name, who made it, and where it can be downloaded. The catalogue already tracks release dates down to the day — the six most recent entries are Star Cadre: Team Command (October 2, 2026), FOKOOM (September 7, 2026), Penult (August 31, 2026), Skellywave (August 18, 2026), Destroyer (August 17, 2026), and Europa Panic! (August 15, 2026) — so a release date helps place your entry in that sequence.

Reporting a problem with an existing entry

Broken links do get reported and do get answered. One comment reads simply "Broken link https://www.doshav…" — alexander russell. Another, from H-Tron Laaca, corrects the record: "Hi, in October 2026 was releas…" That is the pattern to follow: name the game, state what is wrong, and give the correct information if you have it.

Reading the site before you post

Two things are worth checking first, because the catalogue is larger and more organised than a casual visitor might assume.

The list is long. The page states "No. of games: 265," so a game you are about to suggest may already be there.

Filtering is built in. The Filter games panel lets you narrow by genre — Action, Adventure, Beat'em up, FPS, Interactive Fiction, Other, Platformer, Puzzle, Racing, Roguelike, RPG, Simulation, Sport, Strategy — and by presentation (Graphics, Textmode), as well as by release year from 2001 onward. Searching within those filters before submitting saves everyone a round trip.

Why people contribute at all

The site's own framing answers this. It asks why anyone would still write games for DOS and gives three reasons: because it is fun, because retro is cool, and because DOSBox runs DOS programs almost anywhere — Windows, Linux, MacOS, smartphones, tablets, Raspberry Pi. The Geordi La Forge quote at the top of the page, "Just because something's old doesn't mean you throw it away," is the project's stated motive. Contributors in the comments are largely developers announcing their own work, which suggests the Suggestions page functions as a low-friction way to get a new DOS release noticed.

What is not available

No pricing, account system, or payment platform appears anywhere in the material, and no email address or contact form is listed. Treat the Suggestions page and the comment feed as the working channels until the site itself says otherwise.
