Really great game, recommend it

Just a great game.

Bought as a gift. Looks lovely

Its easy to follow. I’m a beginner for these kinds of board games and I played this with the boyfriend who’s an expert and I enjoyed it!

Good deck builder with nice theme

Absolute masterpiece, even better with Ix but get Immortality whilst you're at it. There is no better board game.

Pretty heavy game with a steep learning curve. After you get past that though this is one amazing game, tense, strategic, dramatic!

Even if you don’t like Dune this is a surprisingly good board game and relatively simple to pickup. A good gift.

Virou o meu jogo favorito. O jogo e incrivelmente amarrado, tem diversas maneiras de progredir e muitas estrategias possiveis. Ele nao te penaliza muito por errar, voce pode se recuperar de um erro na proxima rodada. As partidas duram consistentemente 2 horas. Unico defeito sao as cartas de intriga de fim de jogo, pois elas podem virar o jogo inteiro depois que ele acabou.

This is a great game, lots of fun to play. Usually everyone is within a point or two of other players and you really don’t know who is going to win till the end. It’s a combination worker placement, deck building, and strategy game. It has quickly become one of the top games of my group. (Also pretty decent as a solo game especially with the companion app, not necessary to play but interesting if you like that sort of thing)

This is the second board game ever made of the esteemed sci fi novel Dune and boy does it not disappoint. This game is mean and conflict is how you win the game. So many strategies can be done from collecting spice to gain tons of solaris or slowly amass your forces on the planet arrakis and strike when the it is right. The deckbuilding and worke placement gel together seamless and there is less downtime when you can only go to the space where your cards allow you too. This makes the deckbuilding more important as you might want to get cards that will help you gain more influence with a certain faction. If you love player interaction this is definitely the game for you. You will always be engaged in the game as anyone on the table can mess up your plans. All of the elements makes this my 2020 Board Game of The Year.

After playing Dune Imperium for the first time at a friend's place, I quickly knew I'd want to purchase it for myself, even while still only loosely grasping the strategy. This turned out to be the best board game purchase I've ever made, and between this physical copy and the digital version which I also recommend, I've easily played over 100 times by now. Dune Imperium is a combination of a worker-placement and a deck-building game, and while each aspect is relatively easy to understand, the depth keeps everyone coming back for another round. I personally found that the variety in things like the different leaders and available cards made for interesting, unique, and nuanced games every time. I have yet to try the physical expansions, although the mere fact that I've already purchased them must say something about Dune's quality. Highly recommend this game to any board game fan, as I believe that anybody with an inclination towards strategy will find something to enjoy here.
