Flash - Completed - Behind the Dune [v2.36.2] [David Balsamique]

I dont get why some give it such high ratings,the game is not much in terms of gameplay or even scenes,sure the art is pretty but doesnt justify it at all.

The story is boring and doesnt make much sense,like for example: Dicktor (pun intended) uses a poison to kill you but hits your mother and she survives though magical plot armor,she is found out and you just spank her and she is back in your employ and party.

Father and security guy are killed in a raid,just like that,you have to travel all around to do practically nothing but just click generic dialogue which sucks.

Few scenes that are generic,repetitive and meh overall.

Few items and ways to use them,much traveling for few gain,characters are shallow badly,like you just have to answer 3 questions to get a random woman you dont know as concubine,too much plot armor overall and weird things like having sex with the female captain that killed your father and choking her to death with your penis,this is in the game no joke.

+ Many assets and character models and traits are copy and pasted from his other game.

I'm not familiar with the plot of Dune, so maybe a lot of references passed me by, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the game! A variety of girls are shown from the best sides, partly in standard poses, partly in unique events. Cool illustrations are complemented by good animations. The game almost never forces you to grind resources and allows you to display the next target on the map as part of the current mission. Very cool, I did not expect that a game that occupies less than 50 megabytes will give so much juicy content.

This was really good. Played through 3 times already, even with the in-game gallery unlock option.
Cheat option was a really good option for persons who not into grinding.
Really good art for such a small filesize.
Would definitely recommend.

A very fun game, quite short but it manages to both do an erotic parody and hit quite well most major plot points of the book. It was amusing to see the scenes with Irulan begging for Spice (and a good idea to include her since her history paragraphs from the book wouldn't really work in a game).
Also it was nice to have this game to pass some time before the Dune part 2 movie.

Considering how pervy Frank Herbert got as the series went on, this game is actually a rather amazing tribute I think he would have enjoyed himself. As someone who truly loved the series growing up I know I love it. Hope this keeps going and drawing on the world as even a true Herbert nerd appreciates the details. Overall just so well done in every aspect.

God I love this game so much. It is a damn hot game, one of the best ones on this site and the only one I ALWAYS come back when an update drops. I can't believe how small the file size is compared to how much content it has.

Truly a work of porn art. The parody aspect of it is on point, the art is simply amazing, animations are fluid and characters are good and varied. Truly a gem in its own right. On every upcoming update and David Balsamique game coming, I'm there everytime.

The game gives you enough power progressively to keeps you interested and to explore its mechanics. It also features different scenes and endings depending on your actions and choises, it even has extra content and different locations to find stuff on. It never feels empty nor senseless to explore and interact with every character.

TL;DR: one of the best games in here. Try it out, it is quick and delivers. Great art, good animations.

[v2.0.2]
Played it long ago.

-Story, Originality

The plot is pretty basic and nearly identical to the source book/film, but with h-variation.
Still feels unfinished.

-Renders
The art is cool, drawn one.

-Sound
Some music plays in the background and it is enough.
As far as I remember there were some basic h-sounds too.

-Playability
You can finish it probably in 1 hour and see most of the h-scenes.
If you know what and where to look for.

-Performance
While playing the game I had flash-game vibes and it felt good.
And no lag of course.

-Bugs
Didn't see any.

-Animations
Similar to flash games, smooth and pleasant.

-Voice Acting
Didn't even remember if there were any.

-Grammar
Didn't find any mistakes.

-Amount of content
After so many years there is a big amount of h-scenes and content.

The greatest Flash H game you will ever play. Lady Jessica is a top tier MILF. The artist style is one of the greatest I've ever seen. To this date the developer is still adding new content. Give it a try! Specially if you are into M&S Wincest.

This game is also known as:
How I learned the plot of Dune
10/10 plot with extra plot
Sandworm management simulator

ACTUAL REVIEW:

Behind the Dune is a visual novel-point and click adventure-management flash game. You progress through the story like a VN, click to move around areas, find story items hidden in areas, and mine spice while avoiding sandworms.

PROS:
It's a flash game with a shit ton of content. Lots of scenes, and the gameplay isn't that bad either. Give it a try even if you're not interested in Dune, you won't regret it.

CONS:
There's only one save file. There are many plot choices you can make.

For a game this small this game has tons of content to explore and a branching plot line with multiple endings. Thats unheard of in many games. Yet this beast of a game only has 60 MB or so yet you can play it for hours. The only thing I would change is that 1 save slot we have on our disposal. With game this rich in choices its a crime not to have more save slots.

This game has animations. Sex scenes. Plot and very good looking characters. All you could wish for from a game and it has little to no memory needed for it to run. No gigabytes of download needed for hours of content. Its the most compact and content packed erotic game I ever seen. MB to CONTENT ratio is insane. I really wish all erotic games collectors give it a try. It is one of the best 2D erotic games ever created.

cannot tell anyone this is how i learned the plot to dune which is a shame cause this is super fun and well animated. lots of characters, interesting scenes, good writing, not frustrating to play. hope to see more games like this

Enjoyable game as is. The scenes are enjoyable and you can progress pretty straight-forwardly. If there were more music options to select from, that would be nice but overall good game. Characters are written alright

Excellent art-style game, with little oversimplified gameplay.
Different bodies are fine drawn in 2D Flash.
The graphics of each location and environment are well depicted too.
There is great fun in playing this game.

Game looks is almost finished, but really looking forward to the next update!

Suitable for a fap session.

Surprisingly long for a flash game and a very good one at that.

It's very tiny, at 21MB, and it delivers the good stuff quickly.

Do take a close look at the monitor in the first room of the palace and turn off a possibly undesirable feature.

Even when Flash is old and discontinuos, this game has very good looking art, comic style but modelos are hoy and gameplay can extend for a few hours if you want ti unlock the 100% if scenes. The spice mining doesnt have the clearest mechanics but despiste that you have here an amazing game un small size with hidden quests, bonus scenes, varios endings, etc. 5 stars.

A classic for sure. It's got that unique yet pretty art style with a wealthy amount of scenes. Has some point and click adventure style gameplay. The story is made with good will towards the source material and has multiple endings. It's so polished, it's hard to believe this was made in flash. Has a variety of fetish and vanilla that keeps things fresh.
I only need the walkthrough for one scene, I got 99% scenes on my own. So the puzzles weren't too cryptic imo. I only wish there was a slightly better Jessica ending.

Reviewing version 2.33.2

Great illustrations and scene, really loved the art style, but i felt like the scene diversity was a bit poor, and the story pretty simple.

There is some spoilers i guess, but since you can't tell what is parody or not ...

Great story albeit kinda short, with scenes of satisfying quantity and quality. Big fan of where everything is at this stage, looking forward to future updates to this game.

Although the story is quite linear, you have a surprising amount of control over what scenes you want to view and with who, rather than being railroaded as in a VN.

Great!

I did not expect much from a Flash player based game but i'v been pleasantly surprised
The story goes great though i found it was too short, many sex scenes with a unique drawing style that were all hotter than the other.

Some may find fetishes or depictions of some things a bit too much, but it just goes quite perfectly with the Dune setting it would have been a shame not to include them

I hope the dev keeps up working on such great things!

Great game!

The scenes are top quality and there is plenty to be found. The artstyle is unique, in my opinion, in a good way.

I ended up replaying the game and going through it twice since there is also some replayability to a few choices you make along the way.

I contemplated giving it only a 4 since it did feel like it was lacking content or that some parts were rushed, but even though I felt that way at times, the game is just to great when compared to what most other similar games have to offer.

5/5, a must play.
