4.0 out of 5 stars Different from the card game, but fun, December 10, 2002

By	Alyx "deaexmachina" (Notre Dame, Indiana) - See all my reviews

A couple caveats first: If you play the card game, get this premium version - it comes with Harpies Pet Dragon, Metalmorph & Red Eyes Black Metal Dragon, good to play or trade. If you don't play the card game get the regular version and save yourself five bucks. Second, if you only own a PS2, you can play this but you have to buy a PS1 memory card - this is especially important if you're giving this as a Christmas gift, if your kid doesn't have a PS1 memory card he's going to be cheesed that he can't save.

In this game, you roleplay as Yugi, and the storyline takes you to fight lots and lots of duels. They're a bit different from the card game. Your deck is populated with weaker monsters that you play together to make stronger cards (somewhat like fusion, but without fusion cards or the stronger monsters actually being in your deck). These can be hard to figure out, but over time you'll get better at it (some guides are also available online). You also designate a zodiac sign for each card, which can give it an advantage or disadvantage against other cards (so always check your opponents' cards). As you duel you get better cards that fuse into even better things. You can also free-duel against anyone you've beaten in the storyline to get more good cards.

What didn't I like? You have to be Yugi, and I'd rather be Kaiba :) Overall, if you like Yu-Gi-Oh, you'll like this. Especially if you don't have real people around to duel with all the time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for 3 years of fun, November 9, 2003

By A Customer

Not very good graphics. But the challenges are hard and it's worth it when you win the duels. I've been playing this game for 3 years and it's still fun.
