Some characters have been clearly likened to their movie counterparts. It's even not focussed completely on the externalised action, with some philosophical and religious notions still being hinted at. Major thematic cuts are of course to be expected, but they managed in a way which still makes some inherent sense. Stylistically and content-wise, Dune is a wild mixture of motifs picked from the novel and the 1984 film. This not being all too deep and complex, things would have felt heavily dragging otherwise. This, of course, is due to reasons of gameplay pace. Likewise, Fremen groups take very short time turning into to expert soldiers, and switching the ecosystem of vast areas of desert into green forests is equally quick. Within few days, the player meets various key characters, falls in love, develops considerable superpowers and essentially turns the whole planet upside down. Looking back at a successful game in hindsight, major event occurrences feel too frequent, almost cramped. The one occurrence where the unity of storytelling and gameplay breaks is pace of things. Both as per the needs of gameplay in each phase (taking micromanagement tasks away as overall responsibilities grow) and fully plot-motivated. As far as planning and giving orders are concerned, where initially, Paul has to physically travel and meet each leader, he later develops telepathic abilities to perform such interactions remotely.

Once again, initially, this exploration is heavily guided, but opens up towards much more free style later on.

Speaking of hidden smuggler towns, they, like the Fremen “sietches” need to be found on the map first.

Providing them with equipment either found somewhere or bought in one of the hidden smuggler towns. Commanding Fremen groups to different locations to look for spice, harvest it or train their combat abilities.

In a similar manner, the initially heavily dialogue-based adventure-like gameplay slowly, initially almost unnoticeably, shifts towards strategic planning. There is nothing artificial about it and it works beautifully. Every week, the amount he is asking for will increase exponentially, defining an implicit end date to the game and a clear urgency to progress. The need to harvest spice is clearly established through the emperor's demands which, if not met, lead to immediate game over. The latter aspect illustrates well how Cryo managed to consolidate gameplay needs into a framework which feels organic with respect to the plot. All while satisfying the emperor's ever increasing demands for spice shipments.

The trust of the native Fremens has to be won, the Harkonnen saboteurs dealt with, later their direct attacks fended off and finally, a large scale counterattack has to be launched to gain full control of the planet. The Atreides have been tasked to harvest the spice, the universe's most important substance, but their archenemies, the Harkonnen, are still present on the planet as well. Then gradually opening up the game world and gameplay scope as things go. Giving them simple things to do first, clear tasks from the Duke, his mother or one of the main advisors. And what a game it is they delivered! Beginning the scenario with Paul Atreides' arrival on Arrakis, narrowing the narrative to his point of view, the game does a fine job drawing its player in.
