Arrakis. Dune. Desert Planet. Raise your banner above the vast wasteland before you. As the Great Houses of the Landsraad marshal their forces and their spies, whom will you influence, and whom will you betray? A tyrannical Emperor. The secretive Bene Gesserit. The shrewd Spacing Guild. The ferocious Fremen of the Deep Desert. The power of the Imperium can be yours, but war is not the only way to claim it.

Dune: Imperium blends deck-building and worker placement in a deeply thematic new strategy game where the fate of the Empire hangs on your decisions. Will you seek political allies or rely upon military might? Economic strength or subtle intrigues? A council seat… or a sharpened blade? The cards are dealt. The choice is yours. The Imperium awaits.

In Dune: Imperium, you'll step into the role of one of the leaders of the Great Houses of the Imperium in a struggle to control the planet Arrakis and the invaluable Spice it provides.

The game plays out in a series of ten rounds, each of which is defined by a new Conflict on the surface of the planet; some award critical resources, and some provide Victory Points that will propel you to dominance. But choose your battles wisely: spread your forces too thin, and you'll find your enemies growing too strong to oppose.

Each round, you'll draw a hand of five cards from your deck, which will get stronger over the course of the game as you acquire new cards. Each card can be played in one of two ways: To send an Agent out into the Imperium to gather resources, or to Reveal at the end of the round to purchase new powerful cards. You must maintain a careful balance to get the most of the resources available to you. How will you find your path?

As your game progresses, you'll vie for Influence with four factions of the Imperium: The Emperor, the economically powerful Spacing Guild, the mysterious Bene Gesserit, and the ferocious Fremen of the deep deserts. Earning Influence among the various groups helps you to earn the Victory Points you need...but will you compete with your rivals for their favor, or abandon alliances to pursue other opportunities?

Many strategies are at your disposal, and many paths to victory. The cards are dealt. The choice is yours. The Imperium awaits.

Got the uprising DLC, and must say it's worth it every penny. Very nice gameplay, didn't find bugs, good AI (for me at least), and already had some very interesting plays. Thanks for creating a proper digital version of this very cool board game!

Easily the most enjoyable strategic board game I have played. The cards and their functions are tailored and designed so that they resemble the actual lore, which is rather impressive. However, let us discuss some flaws that need improvement. First of all, not all card play effects are animated (draw a card, gain spice, move up with an alliance), and sometimes the icons are either displayed wrongly or not at all. The EVENT category has been there for years, and no visible progress has been made there. At the same time, a player I know received an email about a potential account termination for writing people in the matches and inviting them to tournaments - the same thing that should have been an EVENT (the same one that says "coming soon" for years) lead by Direwolf. I wrote Direwolf personally and, ironically, still received no answer when offering to collaborate on this project as I also asked if they offer education or training to improve their own product. I do hope this changes as to not cause a conflict of interest when players themselves decide to initiate what community needs, as it would be highly inappropriate and unfair to players. As for the game itself, th…
