Dune: Imperium

Giving it a five star rating because it’s a great port of a board game. However it does feel incomplete without expansions. It’s a must have same in root!

It plays just as well as it does on a computer. I recommend it.

I purchased Dune: Imperium within the first hours after its release on the AppStore, and it has exceeded all my expectations. This digital version is a fantastic embodiment of the original board game, boasting impressive graphics, an intuitive interface, and a smart AI that provides a challenging yet enjoyable gaming experience. The developers have announced plans to introduce the Rise of X expansion in the summer of 2024, further enriching the game’s content and replayability. For this, it undoubtedly deserves a 5-star rating. A slight aside, I initially bought the Mac version on Steam a week ago, only to discover the iOS release shortly after. Despite having to purchase the game twice, I have no regrets. Being able to engage in a match while on the move or waiting in line on my smartphone is a convenience that’s hard to overstate. Reducing the game’s rating for this reason never crossed my mind. The Spice must flow!

Needs a pass and play feature but otherwise well made.

Really great game. I felt it was challenging to learn at first, but now it’s not so bad. Lots of fun ways to win the games, and each win feels great. I’m addicted.

Half this apps features/game modes require an account.. You can’t select the character you wish to play, ‘selections’ seemingly always draft/random EVEN AGAINST BOTS like what!? Stagnated content, given my experience, don’t expect anything meaningful (or otherwise) to get released, new characters etc.. just the occasional fix. 2/5 for having (imo wasted) potential.

Need 60fps gameplay setting on IPad Pro, I believe the IPad Pro’s performance could handle this.

Smooth and sleek. Game is tight and fun. Challenges and skirmishes are a nice way to mix things up for experienced players!

I love this game and cannot stop playing! First though I have to admit off the top that at the start I had some real problems getting the hang of this game. It is complicated even for seasoned gamers, and the tutorials only teach you a fraction of the gameplay, and the instructions are only for the physical board game version. There is a *steep* learning curve. But despite that, I was drawn in by how the game captures so much of and immerses you so deeply in the Dune universe, and so I was compelled to play more. By the fifth time I played (losing *badly* each time even on easiest setting) things started to click and it made a lot more sense to me. And now I am 💯 a huge fan. It’s complex enough to allow varied gameplay and strategy without being just too overwhelmingly much to keep track of. The pacing is excellent. The balance of players and cards and abilities is just right. My only ask is that, when AI players make moves, it goes by so quickly and the cards flash by so fast that you can’t appreciate what they’ve done, so you don’t know what other cards do and more importantly you can’t give their moves enough attention to think about what their strategy might be. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE expansions for “Rise of Ix” and “Immortality,” and for “Imperium: Uprising”—PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE release more! I’ve loved Dune Imperium so much I’ve even gone out and bought the physical games. This is by far one of the best board-game-adapted-for-iOS I’ve ever played, and I’ve played a lot.

Tutorial does not respond in 3rd part. Stops working when “seeing top card”. Game is a waste of money. Do not buy.
