About Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty
As a foundational Real-Time Strategy (RTS) title from 1992, you control one of three Houses (Atreides, Ordos, or Harkonnen) fighting for control of Dune. The core loop involves harvesting the single resource, Spice, which converts to credits for building bases on stone terrain and training armies. Be wary: moving on sand attracts massive, indestructible sandworms. Strategy is deepened by unique units and special palace effects available only to your chosen House, establishing many genre conventions.
