I just used the Bottle app on Mint. Uses Wine for windows compatibility. Ran the GOG Galaxy to load and play the DOS games. All is well. Of course I had to up the Cycles in the dos config files.

If you use GOG Galaxy willingly, you are not part of the public ./play.it is developed for ;)

On the other hand, the combination of Galaxy + WINE + DOSBox seems to be far from the best way to run these games. You could easily run them directly in a native build of DOSBox, getting rid of both Galaxy and WINE.
