The First DUNE Game! ► Adventure in Dune 1 & DOS - Download & Install
546The first ever Dune game is an adventure strategy that was amazingly ahead of its time. The 3D visuals, pixel art animated faces, and actually good voice acting. With the Dune 2020 movie on the way, these old Dune games are a great way to get back into the universe. As a nostalgic gamer who missed this back in 1992, I seriously recommend downloading and installing Dune 1 and trying some of its gameplay.

#AbandonwareAdventures is a format where I find a good old game that is no longer for sale and play some of it. These are often PC games from my childhood that have been abandoned and I think need to be looked at again. Watch more at gamerzakh.com/abandonware
How to install and play #Dune 1
1. Download and install DOSBox if you haven't already

2. Where to download Dune 1 (you need the iso file and mount it onto a virtual disk drive using something like PowerISO)

3. General instructions on how to install a CD into DOSBox
http://www.sierrahelp.com/Utilities/Emulators/DOSBox/DOSBoxGuide-Install.html
- Basically, once you've mounted the disk image of Dune onto a virtual drive, you need to create a folder for the game. I made a C:\dos folder.
- Then you have to open DOSBox, type mount c c:\dos (or whatever you named your folder). This makes the DOSBox C: drive whatever is in that folder.
- Next, type mount d d:\ -t cdrom -ioctl (This depends as the drive you mounted the Dune disk image might not be your D: drive, it could be E: or F:, so you might need to type "mount d e:\" instead to made the DOSBox D: drive wherever the Dune disk image is mounted).
- Go to D: drive in DOSBox by typing "D:" and type 'install' and it should start the Dune installation process.
- Once the installation is complete, you need to make sure you're in the Dune install directory, which should be called 'DUNECD', so type "c:" to go back to the C: drive and then "cd dunecd" and it should put you in the folder.
- Type 'dune' and it will launch the game. Enjoy!
'#Abandonware' is not a legal term but I always try to source games from Archive.org, a website that is a recognised public library and has a DMCA exception.
