Description from the packaging.

From the "Manual of Muad'Dib" by Princess Irulan.

"Know now that the year is 10,191. The known universe is ruled by my father, the Padishah Emperor. In this time the most precious substance in the universe is the spice Melange. The spice extends life and expands consciousness- which is vital to space travel.

Just moments ago, my father ordered the House of Atreides to journey to the desolate planet of Arrakis, or Dune as it also known, to break the spice production monopoly of the brutal Harkonnens."

As the cunning soldier Paul Atreides, you must seize this opportunity to drive your long-standing nemesis, the Baron Harkonnen, from Dune.

To succeed in your quest, you must prove to the fierce native warriors who slave for the Harkonnens that you are the great leader foreseen in their prophecies.

But before you can proceed with forever changing the fate of mankind- you must uncover the traitor who threatens to annihilate you and all who follow the House of Atreides.

  • Adventure-packed strategy game follows the surreal storyline of both the Frank Herbert book and the David Lynch film.
