Actually, you can still download and play this on modern platforms. I have it running on my Mac. http://dunelegacy.sourceforge.net/website/ and https://www.myabandonware.com/game/dune-ii-the-building-of-a... brings back great memories. Good read :-)

Dune Legacy is awesome. They added some RTS features that evolved after Dune II like drag select and control groups.

Makes it a lot more playable today without impacting the fel of the game.

I also like that you can get a much larger viewport than in the original, using todays very big resolution screens. I find having 2x scaling and a large Window works best, as 1x makes units too small.
