How to Get and Run Rolypolys 2
ScummVM, which has been working on Adobe Director support, can detect the game (thank you @mistydemeo <3), but trying to run it will softlock you on the game's title screen, unable to click anything. It's likely this will be fixed in the future, but for now I can't recommend it for this particular game.

How to Get and Run Rolypolys 2
Notably, unlike Rolypolys 1, you cannot run it in DOSbox. This is because the game is a 32-bit executable, and 32-bit support was simply not present in Windows 3.1, the latest stable Windows version that can be run in DOSbox.

best lightweight linux distro for old laptop and gaming
well, it depends. It was better experience than FreeBSD 7.2 that's for sure. :) It was running Xorg with https://i3wm.org, a web-server, XMPP-server, PostgreSQL, few bots and dovecot / postfix (e-mail server). It was doing fine routing internet for 2PCs and a WiFi router for 10 years until its HDD died. For gaming... erm... I was able to play something like Theme Hospital or Syndicate Wars in dosbox. You have to understand any OS is just software it doesn't make magic. With minimalistic Desktop Environment like Xfce, LXDE or even barebones i3wm you can put your hardware to use with Arch Linux.

Rust is Boring
My advice is, when you feel you need that challenge, install DOSBox or DOSBox-X and Open Watcom C/C++, DJGPP, or gcc-ia16 and do some retro-programming. You'll also get the fun of being able to do low-level hardware twiddling and rely on DOS being so simple that it's effectively an RTOS.

Can Emacs do this?
Are you referring to the "DOSBox" program, or were you referring to the windows command prompt? DOSBox (the software program) is not dependent upon Windows to operate. I use it from Linux, myself.

Does anyone worry they won't be able to play their games in the future?
I've been gaming for something like 30 years now, and I've got a lot of old games I can't play right now. I could probably make them work... Get a USB disk drive and throw DOSbox on my machine... Tinker around a bit... I can probably make them work... If the disks are still readable... But it's not 100% certain.
