3.0 out of 5 stars Prepare to be Schooled!, April 4, 2006

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh GX Duel Academy (Video Game)

Unlike previous Yu-Gi-Oh games, this one is more than just duels. It also is about schools! You've got the normal battling to earn points to build decks. But, you also have monthly exam days that consist of written exams (10 multiple choice questions out of a large number of possible questions) about the cards themselves, a timed duel where you have to win with the cards in the setup in a set amount of time, and then a practical exam using a deck and having to perform the specified actions for the exam (play traps, play spells, do fusions, do rituals, do direct damage, etc.). This game requires a lot of knowledge of the card game over all.

The rating drops from 4 to 3 stars for me because it is a pain to complete the packs. Also, if you fail your exams, you go back down to the loser dorms and have to work your way back up again.

A good game though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Next Generation Yu-Gi-Oh!, January 20, 2006

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh GX Duel Academy (Video Game)

I suppose this game really depends on if you like the angsty, oh-my-god-death-eaters-run! plot or a more child-oriented, live like a rebel kid, plot. I love both. In this game, you can duel anybody you run in to really, as well as take tests (easy if you watch Yu-Gi-Oh! or Yu-Gi-Oh! GX at all). The funnest thing is probably dueling teachers... (REVENGE!!!)

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh GX Duel Academy (Video Game)

well fist of all you actualy live in a dorm!
more then just dueling pasa tests buy cards make friends etc.

the only downside is that people don`t use the decks hey use on the TV show
bye!
