Leaders such as Hundro Mortani are simple, he allows you to start with an intrigue card and pay 1 spice to move your Freighter using your Signet Ring. Prince Rhombur simply makes Dreadnaughts more effective, and then on the other end of complexity, you have Tessa. Her Snoop tokens can pay off very well but require you to plan ahead of time to get the most of out them. Coggan, Devan (January 7, 2020).

What to know

Rise of Ix follows the same design philosophy as the base game, which is one of simple beauty. The simplistic design keeps the expansion’s price reasonable but maintains a pleasing look anyway. The board additions match the same quality as the base games board, with a visual design that looks nice and is easy to understand. William, Chris (November 24, 2020).

Sure it does technically fix many of the issues I had with the first game. End game intrigue cards have less of an impact, and the renewed importance on Spice and Solari passively dials down the perceived strength of the Sword Master and Mentat. From the time you start playing Rise of Ix, those two spaces finally resemble what they always were, an option instead of a must-have.

The goal of Rise of Ix is unchanged from the original Dune: Imperium: to end the game with the most victory points. Setting up the expansion. Image by Paul Benson. Setup Instead of using any Conflict I cards, 5 randomly selected Conflict II cards are placed on top of 5 Conflict III cards. Dune Imperium was already one of my favorite games, and Rise of Ix elevated it further. I prefer complex games, and Rise of Ix does add some that I enjoy even more. But it does so in an easy-to-learn and approachable way, assuming that you already knew how to play Dune Imperium in the first place. Epic Mode is a bit misleading. It doesn’t actually make the game any longer, as there are still only 10 rounds. That’s unfortunate because my only other complaint is it sometimes feels like Dune Imperium ends too early. However, if you have a group that routinely ends the game a couple of rounds early, Epic mode is the perfect solution. My PerspectiveMuch like I was able to win without ever getting one of the powerful dreadnoughts, in another game, one of my opponents won without ever acquiring their 3rd Agent. One of the delights of playing Dune: Imperium – Rise of Ix is that there isn’t one set strategy that will win you the game. You must play both strategically and tactically, adapting to the cards in your hand and the other players’ moves. a b c Sanda, Clayton (December 28, 2018).

In a couple of the games that I played, I had players that had never played the base game before, yet they didn’t have any problems learning Dune: Imperium along with the expansion added in. It provides new and meaningful choices, making you think a little bit harder as you play, but in a good way. I’d hesitate to call Rise of Ix an essential expansion. However, I don’t personally see playing Dune: Imperium at any point in the future without it. Dune: Imperium – Rise of Ix accomplishes that sublime task of making what was already a really great game just a bit greater.
