Might work better as a version of Monopoly. Here are some suggestions for the Chance and Community Chest cards:
SOMEONE YOU THOUGHT WAS DEAD IS ACTUALLY ALIVE. ADVANCE 5 SPACES.
THE MYSTERIOUS STRANGER IS SOMEONE YOU KNEW IN THE FIRST VOLUME. GO BACK 10 SPACES.
EVERYONE ELSE IS INVOLVED IN A CONSPIRACY AGAINST YOU. MISS A THROW.
PAY A ONE TRILLION CREDIT FINE OR HAVE A MYSTICAL INSIGHT.
TURN INTO A GIANT SANDWORM AND EAT ALL THE OTHER PLAYERS.
etc etc...

Oops! I forgot about the flashing crystal teeth. It's been a few decades since I read this!
(As I make my way through this series again for some reason after many years, I do find this book to be the weakest so far; but mainly the first half. Okay, maybe the first three quarters. There remains (for me) some good, and rather unique, stuff in there though. And some of the crazy mystical speeches at the end actually do (for me) tie some of the ridiculous things together and stimulate thought. But I can also understand a certain recurring exasperation with this narrative.)
That's what little sandworms are made of.
