Game Information:
Dune is a game based on the science fiction novel Dune by Frank Herbert. Created by Virgin Interactive in 1990, it was a successful game that combined the best of the graphic adventures of the time with some elements of what would later become strategy games.
The collaboration with the company Cryo would provide the game with a very attractive graphical interface, which was combined with adequate graphic requirements for the time and a successful soundtrack (later marketed separately).
It combines adventure with economic and military strategy, and is considered by many the most immersive Dune computer game. Roughly following the story of the novel, the player plays Paul Atreides, with the ultimate goal of expelling the Harkonnen from Dune, while managing the extraction of spices, the army and, later, the ecology through the native Fremen tribes. As the player progresses, his troops are equipped with weapons ranging from "crysknives" to atomic, tap into Paul's latent psychic powers, and become acquainted with characters from the book such as Chani and Liet Kynes. Available for Amiga and IBM PC compatibles, it was one of the first floppy disk games to be converted to CD format, featuring footage from the David Lynch film, dubbing of all the characters, and enhanced 3D rendered travel and location screens. This version (a mix of Amiga graphics and extras from the PC-CD version) was also released on Sega's Mega CD format. Also worth mentioning is the audio track created by Stéphane Picq and Philip Ulrich, released by Cryo (formerly Exxos) on the album Dune: Spice Opera.
