Last month I bought myself a transformer pad, which is a nice little Android tablet with a keyboard and mouse dock. I've put DOSBox on it and I have been experimenting with various games to see if they run properly. So far I have hit two major snags:

1. No F1-12 keys
2. Mouse controls are flakey - with USB mouse and with trackpad

Now I COULD add an external keyboard but that really takes away the point of buying a tablet/keyboard combo. So, does anybody know of any good old games that don't require mouse or F keys?
Add your recommendations and I shall download, try and post the results here.

Attempted so far:

Elite
Frontier: Elite 2
Space Crusade
MechWarrior

Works well:

Battletech

Beneath A Steel Sky?

All of the Dizzy games

There's a good list here, but I don't know about mouse/F keys. A few notables include:

Carmageddon (also on iPad!)
Crusader: No Regret/Remorse (may require mouse)
Flashback
GTA
Lost Vikings (may require mouse)
Pirates! Gold (may require mouse)

I haven't really played with DOSBox on Android much as I have FPse and MD.emu with hundreds of games, but I think you can remap the 6 on-screen keys plus on screen D-pad to pretty much anything, including F-keys so something like Doom should be possible as that only has about six keys.

I'd like a decent replacement for the Samsung keyboard that pops up for text entry - it covers too much of the screen and isn' t transparent, so you have to type commands blind and then hide the keyboard to see the results.
