Frank Herbert's Dune (video game)

Frank Herbert's Dune is a 2001 Adventure video game based on the 2000 Sci Fi Channel miniseries of the same name.

The game turned out to be a costly flop, and the studio was unable to find creditors to keep operations running.

As Paul, the son of the Duke Atreides's concubine and heir to the throne, the player must earn the trust and respect from the natives of the desert planet Dune, the Fremen, to ultimately become their prophesied messiah and free them from the desolate conditions of the planet.

He also needs to overcome the evil Baron Harkonnen who slaughtered the Atreides family with covert backup from the Emperor.

Dune was a finalist for The Electric Playground's 2001 "Best Adventure Game for PC" award, but lost the prize to Myst III: Exile.
