One of the best sites for msdos games I've found is ftp.ulowell.edu.
Go to /msdos/Games and there are several shareware company directories
listed.  IMHO some of the Apogee games are quite good as well as a few
under the Misc directory.

If you're looking for games for windows, try wuarchive.wustl.edu under
/mirrors/win3/games.
