Piracy and... McCarthyism?
The game is "Beneath A Steel Sky", an old school point and click adventure. And though the graphics are pixel style, they are still very well done, and the game and story are still great. The emulator is ScummVM. There's some other games that were released as freeware.

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.

Show HN: Play Heroes of Might and Magic II demo from 1996 in the browser
Emscripten port https://github.com/midzer/fheroes2 took me over 24 hours due removal of multi-threaded code - and rather slow compile laptop. Currently Browser Audio API can't run in a worker at all. PThreads are stable in Emscripten but can make issues for example if main thread is blocked via mutexes.
