Dune: Imperium Reviews

I love this game so much. I'm normally a single-player gamer exclusively, but while this game is fun against AI opponents, I've actually been finding it very satisfying to play against other humans online. I'm so glad that's an option. This is right up my alley too because I like games that "look like games." As impressive as modern 3D immersive graphics are, I'm somehow put off by 3D games, especially from a first-person perspective. I live that ish on the daily, you know? I don't need a game to simulate walking around a world as a human. And I grew up in the era where 3D games were the new hotness and where it seemed every game studio was replacing beautiful hand-drawn 2D graphics with wonky-looking 3D ones and calling it an upgrade. Left a bitter taste, and to this day games involving cards, turn-taking, and a top-down or isometric perspective where you get to move lots of different "pieces" around the board are my jam. This game, being a literal digital conversion of a real board game, scratches the itch marvelously. And it's Dune. I think it could be fun even without the Dune theme, if all flavortext were erased and you had just the base gameplay mechanics to enjoy. But it's extra delightful that you get to feel yourself taking part in the power plays and intrigue among the Great Houses while you play.

Really classy game. Daunting at first maybe. Not overly complicated. Deep strategy with just enough luck to keep things interesting without making it feel overtly random. Plus, Dune is just cool.

Dune: Imperium is a dynamic and exciting board game. The gameplay blends really well with the world of Dune and the intricacies of the various factions in the sci-fi world. The execution on this digital version of the game is flawless in my opinion and there are various challenges to keep the game fresh and interesting, in order to continually push your mind into finding new ways to win.

An incredible adaptation of the board game. Not too hard to learn, fun to play, and offers a wide variety of playstyles from complicated to moderately simple. Expect your first game to take A WHILE, but once you know what all the icons are and what the spaces do, games can be pretty quick, even with 4 live players. The ranked queue needs to be both expansions though, for real. Ix is great, but the game is SO much more fun with all the expansions.

One of my favorite board games and easily my favorite digital board game, it plays insanely smooth, polished almost to perfection!

really enjoyed the time play this board game with others. Love the implementation on the pc. Great job!

Awesome game, tons of different winning strategies. Just the right amount of RNG to make it interesting. Looking forward to picking up the DLC. Highly recommend.

Not since Gremlins have I been so hooked on playing an e-board game. The constant dynamic strategies and win conditions make every game feel fresh and different. Really great Dune lore and feel when playing. Hopefully it will continued to be updated with new modes and cards for awhile.

Love the board game, and this is just a cheaper and smoother alternative to it. great for solo play, well made overall

Actually amazing! Me and my friends got the game in real life and then realised there was a video game version so we've been playing this as well! It can be a little hard to get the hang of but can be reeeaaally fun once you do. Definitely recommend.
