Secure the Spice and Solari in Monopoly: Dune

If reading the novels, playing Dune-inspired video games, viewing the 1984 film, and watching the 2021 movie isn’t enough Dune-ness to hold you over until Dune: Part Two, you must not fear (fear is the mind-killer).

Instead, you can now preorder Monopoly: Dune, the most recent edition of the classic board game from The Op | Usaopoly. It’s the spice — and maybe the tension that accompanies all Monopoly family game nights — that will make this board game an instant hit for Dune lovers. 

Those in House Atreides and House Harkonnen, or any other house for that matter, can venture across the sand of Arrakis as they move around the board. The board features characters from the franchise, such as Paul Atredies and Lady Jessica, as they appear in the 2021 and 2024 Dune films. Images of Zendaya as Chani, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan Corrino, and other characters from different factions fill the game board spaces. 

Fans can buy, sell, and trade influence with Solari, a custom Dune currency, in place of dollars. Players move around the board to establish Leverage (Houses) and Loyalty (Hotels) with collective tokens that mirror objects from the franchise. Players can choose from a Ducal Ring, Crysknife, Gom Jabbar, Muad’dib, Maker Hooks, or Ornithopter as their game piece. 

Chance and Community chest cards are now Fate and Politics cards, further immersing the player into the Dune universe. Bankrupt others of their precious Solari and all they have to their name in this friendly competition. 

Remember, “he who controls the spice, controls the universe.” Good luck!

Fans can preorder Monopoly: Dune today at shop.legendary.com for $44.99. Monopoly: Dune will be available at other retailers later this month.
