If you haven't already, check out our guide to installing Linux on your Chromebook to get set up. (Some Windows-only games may be playable through WINE, though that’s a bit outside the scope of this guide.) You'll still be limited by your Chromebook's hardware, and by which games have Linux support, but it's something. If you're not satisfied with online emulation or mobile apps, you can take advantage of Chrome OS' underlying Linux system and run actual, honest-to-goodness desktop games. If there's a specific game you want to play, search around and see if someone has built an online emulator for it-you might be surprised at what you find.
Some classic games may even have their own sites dedicated to in-browser emulation, like QuakeJS. So shoot up some Techbots in Duke Nukem or induce some motion sickness with Descent, no extra operating system required.

NaclBox, on the other hand, allows you to upload your own DOS games to its in-browser emulator, allowing you to play the full version of whatever game you want (and even save your progress for later). JS-DOS has a decent selection of games built-in, including Doom and Wolfenstein, but many of them are the limited shareware versions, so you can't play through the whole thing. If you want to play those old DOS games with improved performance, there are a handful of other sites that may emulate them better.
THE SIMS 4 DOWNLOAD FOR CHROMEBOOK ARCHIVE
Performance is less than ideal on some of them, so you'll have to search around and see which ones are actually playable, but it's pretty remarkable what the Internet Archive has been able to accomplish from a historical preservation standpoint. The Internet Archive has a massive collection of old software, much of which you can run online, from old-school console games to the DOS games of your childhood. These days, computers are powerful enough to run plenty of classic games right in a browser window. Remember back in the day, when you were bored, and you'd pull up Tetris in your browser to pass the time? Well in-browser games are still around, and we've come a long way since Elf Bowling.
