H!Zone

Screenshots1 / 2

A first-person perspective of a brick-walled dungeon corridor with pools of lava on both sides of the floor. The player's weapon, a rifle-like instrument, is visible in the lower right corner. A heads-up display spans the bottom of the screen showing ammunition count (54), health/armor bars, and what appears to be radar or minimap elements on the left and right. The far wall features two doorways flanked by torches. The palette consists of dark grays, browns, and bright orange-red lava, rendered in low-resolution 3D sprites typical of early-to-mid 1990s DOS games.

H!Zone Controls — DOS Keyboard Keys

Default keyboard bindings for H!Zone on our in-browser DOS emulator. Plug in a USB or Bluetooth gamepad to auto-detect mappings, or rebind any key from the emulator settings menu.

DOS games use the keyboard directly as the controller — there is no console-button mapping. Open the in-game documentation or check the game-specific options screen for the key layout used by this title.

Rebind any key from the EmulatorJS in-game settings menu (gear icon → Controls). A connected gamepad auto-maps to the same buttons.
