Story:Dune is a 1992 video game, based upon Frank Herbert's science fiction novel of the same name. Developed by Cryo Interactive, is the first of the Dune computer games. Dune blended adventure with economic and military strategy, and is considered by many the most immersive Dune computer game. Loosely following the story of the novel, the game casts the player as Paul Atreides, with the ultimate goal of driving the Harkonnen from Planet Dune, while managing spice extraction, military, and later, ecology through the native Fremen tribes.
As the player progresses, his troops are equipped with weapons from "crysknives" to atomics, tap into Paul's latent psychic powers, and get acquainted with such characters from the book as Chani and Liet-Kynes.Show more

Awesome game! One of a kind! But beware... if the game comes to GOG, both floppy and CD versions should be included. Why? Because the floppy version is better!
The CD version adds two major changes : voice acting and pre-rendered 3D cutscenes. The voice acting is subpar and becomes quite annoying in the second half of the game, where the gameplay is more about managment than story (you'll here the same lines over and over again).
The pre-rendered 3D cutscenes make the game dull. The 2D graphics were beautiful at the time and still are, the pre-rendered 3D was primitive and look dated today. The cutscene you'll see the most of is the ornithopter travel. In the floppy version the cutscene uses the game engine. As you travel, you'll see the desert take on various colors according to the day/night cycle. You'll see your destination on the horizon before reaching it or maybe spot a place that wasn't on your map. On the CD version, every time you take an orni, you'll see the same boring pre-rendered 3D cutscene. No shifting colors, nothing on the horizon, no surprises.
Keep in mind that this is true of a lot of games that were originally released on floppy discs and saw a "hasty" re-release on CD with a bit of 3D thrown in because it was "the new trend".
I played this game for a lot hours in my childhood. I´ll wish this game come back with spanish (how I was playing) :D
It would be a pleasure to have it available for current operating systems and with some support, it is about time that this jewel leaves the “abandonware”.
I played this game on my old pc, these years i only had a colorless monitor and remember to be the door to Dune universe in my childhood, find the sietchs, learn the weapons and trying to beat harkonnen while reforesting Dune was wholesome, one of the best of all my life
I still have my copy for the Sega CD. It's a great game and I love the voice acting on it. It's definitely a callback to the Lynch movie, but also works on its own. Unfortunately it's not always clear what to do next and a guide DEFINITELY helps.
One of the first games I ever played to the end. Fantastic sound track (which I have on CD too).
I'm struggling to remember any details about the game itself other than really enjoying it.
This would be a must for my steam deck should GOG be so kind as to make it available.
From a time were games just appeared, someone got a hold on Dune. (And Dune II, about the same time), months before we saw it in store. It started a lifelong facination for this world, and led me to the movie, and the books. I remember getting the CD-ROM version, and the flight scenes through the desert blew my mind. Would love to re-play!
Dune (1992) was one of the first PC games I ever played, and it left a lasting impression on me. I actually watched the film only afterward, which led to several aha moments. However, knowing the film isn't necessary to enjoy the game.
The gameplay was intuitive and engaging, making it easy to get immersed in the story. For its time, the graphics were remarkable, vividly bringing the desert world of Arrakis to life. However, what truly stood out to me was the soundtrack—experiencing it through my very first sound card was an unforgettable moment. Just incredible! It would be fantastic if the bundle also included the original soundtrack, as it played such a crucial role in creating the game's atmosphere.

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them.
