If anyone reading this comment has not read the Dune series of books, I strongly recommend that you go out and buy or borrow the books as they are incredible.
It is by watching youtube I set my mind in motion, it is by watching them fast the thoughts aquire speed, the brain aquires a migraine, the migraine becomes a warning, it is by watching youtube I set my mind in motion.
One of my favorite games of the DOS era. Especially because of the music. This game would get a top score from me. I think it's better than Dune 2 which was the more popular game of the two and sort of coined the C&C/Warcraft strategy gameplay.
for me...this is one of the first PC game that i played...SERIOUSLY!!hahaha..for me the idea of spice, travelling thru dessert (and sometimes can get lost) is..amazing for that time :D definitely one that sets bar that time :)
Great game. Still have it on disks and cd. There was a way to bug the ending at least on the disk version. I think if you let the Fremen rebuild the Harkonnen palace after you attacked -and won- you were able to go there without ending the game. The spice demands from the Emperor would also stop (probably because he's in the Harkonnen palace) and thus you could continue finding new sietches and transform the planet.
Loved this game - one of the first games I bought for PC CDROM! This Tie Fighter and Theme Park. I remember thinking these were the best games ever and PC was awsome!! I feel so nostalgic thinking about them!!
I just had a dream that a friend was explaining this game to me and I don't think I've heard of this game since I was a little kid. I don't remember hearing about it, but I'm sure my older bro was telling me about it a long ass time ago.
Have you read the book? it's amazing and better than both movies. We already have semi-remakes of Dune called The Matrix and Avatar since they are the same thing as Dune movies and the books.
Yeah I read the books, they are wonderful. The movie however is still an epic masterpiece. The matrix and avatar are the same thing? stop smoking that shit... it's messing with your head.
Well true hardcore fans of the book usually shun Lynch's movie. Well The Matrix and Avatar share similarities to Frank Herbert's books as both films have messiahs as Neo does have powers while Jake does not. Since Avatar was written in 1993 Cameron says he was influenced by his favorite novel as there are similarities like outcast on exotic planet, both fall in love with native alien girl and join alien tribes, tame beasts, fight for precious substance, villains being similar etc
I salute your clip. I simply love this game. I finished it in day 33. It is very closed with the book. Harah mourns her husband, killed by an youngster from the tribe, not by Paul Muad d'ib.
well, maybe if that book had pictures you would appreciate it, dude. It won a lot of prizes. "Nebula" is only one of them, but why do i tell you all this "crap". You are too inteligent to pay attention to that. Bye!
Is there any way to run this on the newer versions of Windows?

The Dune series are unique. Why?
Dune 1 is the only perfect adventure/strategy blend and certainly unique one-of-a-kind.
Dune 2 is the first strategy game that uses the creations later used in modern strategy games.
Dune 2000 is a new modern strategy game unlike the more primitive Dune 2.
Emperor: Battle for Dune is awesome.

Hi I install this game on my PC and use Dose Box Ver 0.74.
The Problem is I have no sound.
I try the Soundblaster and Adlib Setting but nothing help.
Any idea ??

@Rokko7881, perhaps try download the CD-ROM version of the game. That's the one I play.

This was the best game ever modeled after a movie ever... I fucking loved this game.
It's pretty old for the new crowd I played it in 1993. You could still watch the movie though which I highly recommend.
I would like to see a character driven remake of this film, (not a special effect action movie).

Good old Gurney Halleck's "Okay Paul, I'm going with you" is going to follow me to the end of my days!
Spectacular game, tempted to dig up the old windows 3.1 machine and set about clearing this again.
