Dune 2000
Details
| Overview | |
|---|---|
|
Dune was created by Frank Herbert in his science fiction novels. The game is mostly taken from the first books where it details the battles between the Atreides and Harkonnen. The game also draws information provided from the unsuccesful Dune movie and the previous Dune games, Dune 1 by Cyro and Dune 2 by Westwood. You start the game by choosing which house you want to command. Your choices are the Noble Atreides, Insidious Ordos, or the Evil Harkonnen. As you battle the other houses the Emperor Padisham IV will attack your forces at inopportune times, dropping his deadly Sarduakar in the middle of your base. Also the Shai-Hulud or Sandworm will constantly be at your back waiting to swallow your units whole at the first chance it gets. Your task on the Arrakis is to harvest the spice. The spice serves a variety of important purposes and since it is only available on Arrakis, it is very valuable. Those exposed to the Spice for long periods begin to develop blue eyes, common among the Fremen. The Fremen are native to Dune and know the planet deeply and over time develop a friendship with House Atreides. |
