Current Events > what game is the emperor playing in DUNE 2 *marked spoilers*

(+) Yeah! (+)

He's playing a board game and it looks like go except they have some larger pyramids that he moves like a rook.

Have they ever talked about this game in Dune lore? Or is it just that? Go with some kind of rook piece that can move around? Perhaps the rook piece is symbolic of the spacing guild--after all the emperor will move a large pyramid quite literally to Dune at the end
