Summary

The Windows Version is great, the DOS version is downright ugly.

The Good

It is somewhat enjoyable, I am a huge Real Time Strategy fan, that's probably what keeps me going, but then I have the great Windows version, so I hardly play it at all, sometimes I do, just for a quick laugh! :-)

The Bad

The graphics are very bad, there are too little options, cutscenes are slow and tough to hear, the animation isn't smooth, and even though many of these things were there in Dune and Dune 2, those games were somehow more enjoyable...

The Bottom Line

Downright Ugly (The DOS version). I certainly advise not buying this, buy the windows version instead!
