Hello! It's me again. Over 6 years ago, I asked whether it was possible to get "Lure of the Temptress" running in FreeDOS (and yes, once again, I've played it in DOSBox). I eventually agreed to concede that it wasn't.
FreeDOS is very much capable of loading and executing this game.
I'm running a fork of PCem called "86Box," and have set up a FreeDOS 1.3 environment on a virtual machine. I copied the "Lure of the Temptress" files to the emulated HDD image, and tried to run LURE.EXE -- only to be confronted with a message asking for "Disk B." Unfortunately, the apparent disk image files are in .VGA format, not in any format that 86Box can recognize and mount to an emulated floppy drive.
These *.VGA files are not floppy images, but data files belonging to the game. If you copied only LURE.EXE to your directory, then the game fails to find its data files. You simply need to have all the DISK[1-4].VGA files present in the same directory as the LURE.EXE executable.
