Also, decompress the PC copy of the abandonware Dune II
Thanks to open source, both Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty and its sequel, Dune 2000, can be played on Mac OS, natively and with some modern improvements.ĭisclaimer: By the letter-of-the-law, abandonware isn't 100% legal but there's no real legal vector to obtain these games, each over 2 decades old. I hoped Dune 2 or Dune 2000 would end up on a service like GOG.com but sadly, it hasn't. I've revisited via emulation a few times. I can't say I have an special affinity for the genre, as pretty much the only other RTSes I've played are the original Command and Conquer and Warcraft 2, but I always liked Dune: The Battle for Arrakis. I assume anyone who is reading this probably knows the place that Dune plays in gaming history, but it's largely considered the title that defined the genre of the real-time strategy (RTS) or the first real time strategy ( even if not entirely correct. I never played Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty on a PC, only the Sega Genesis port Dune: The Battle for Arrakis so it was news to me that you could play Dune II on MacOS. Every now and again, I get a hankering for retro gaming and it ends up on this blog.
