From 2010 to 2014 Richard Cobbett wrote Crapshoot, a column about rolling the dice to bring random games back into the light. This week, the most important planet in the universe is up for grabs. Time to call Muad'Dibs, because Usul, we have word-sign the likes of which even God has never seen!
Even now, it's hard not to feel sorry for Dune, and indeed, for its creators Cryo. Those aren't words you'll hear often, because Cryo's output over the years was... how to put this politely? It was not good. It was not good at all. (How to put it rudely? Its output was about the same as a sewage plant's intake). Mostly it produced tedious games with for-the-time impressive visuals, specialising in truly boring adventures but occasionally branching out to inflict the likes of Hellboy on the world.
