Game cover

Game Overview

Ah, Dune II: The Battle for Arrakis—the granddaddy of real-time strategy games! Before Command & Conquer and StarCraft ruled the genre, this MS-DOS gem dropped players onto the scorching sands of Arrakis and said, "Here’s some spice, now go conquer." Choose between the noble Atreides, ruthless Harkonnen, or sneaky Ordos, then build bases, harvest spice, and crush your enemies under the weight of your army (or a well-planned sonic tank ambush).

What makes Dune II special? It practically invented the RTS formula we take for granted today—resource gathering, tech trees, and frantic mouse-clicking battles. Sure, the controls feel a bit clunky now, but back in ’92, commanding legions of Fremen or unleashing a Death Hand missile felt like pure sci-fi magic. If you’ve ever wondered where your favorite strategy games got their roots, this desert warzone is where it all began. Just watch out for the sandworms—they hate harvesters.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
