Best way to use PCSX2 on M1?
I still think TellowKrinkle's version (https://github.com/tellowkrinkle/pcsx2) is better, even if it doesn't have a native M1 version. The most important thing performance related is the Metal renderer, and that version has it, as well as a Vulkan and an OpenGL renderer. I tried Aether, but still has some bugs, and I think the original interface is better suited for computers

PCSX EMULATOR ON MAC
Just use Tellowkrinkle's PCSX2 port for Mac. It also features a Metal renderer giving much better performance compared to older releases. Here's the link: https://github.com/tellowkrinkle/pcsx2. Also, I'm not sure if it would run that great on a dual core or even be able to open on 10.15, but it's worth a shot.

VCMI: Open-Source Engine for Heroes of Might and Magic III
Other comments are talking about how it's not in scope, which is unfortunate for this case, but since you loved the app, I poked around and found a quite active fork! Unsure how functional it is, but it seems to have gotten quite a bit of love: https://github.com/MaddTheSane/Boxer

86Box – Low level x86 emulator that runs older operating systems and software
For MacOS, Boxer (http://boxerapp.com/) is great. It creates executables (distributable with zero dependencies) that include dosbox and the app to run - the creation is super easy too. Dosbox footprint is very small. It’s just amazing to double click and start the app or game without having to worry about setting up dosbox.
