Product Description

Editorial Review
It’s important to note for Yu-Gi-Oh! fans that this is a stand-alone board game, not part of the main Yu-Gi-Oh! card collecting and dueling game. The rules are simple, but there are enough interesting twists to keep it interesting and fresh, with lots of room for strategy. Players--whose goal it is to quest for a magical pyramid--assume one of four characters, with each character represented by a game token and a card reader. The card reader is the most interesting aspect of the game, as it makes the value of each card vary by character; making your choice of character a matter of tactics more than which one you think looks the coolest. The game pieces all have nice detail, especially the character tokens that are detailed down to the level of facial expression. If the flimsiness of the game board makes it less than heirloom quality, that’s a small flaw in an otherwise fun and well-thought out game.--David Stoesz

5.0 out of 5 stars One of best board games around, November 21, 2002

By	matt & cj's auntie from guam (Dededo, GU USA) - See all my reviews

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

My nephews, ages 5 and 9, are game board fanatics -- they have 4 different Harry Potter games, Pokemon Monopoly, Wizards chess, and now, this Yugioh Millennium game. This is the most fun of all! There are 2 types of battles with 4 different types of challenges -- using monsters, dice, and other games. Not only is the game lots of fun and fast-paced, but it also brings out different strategies depending upon which character you play as [that is, depending upon if you're Yugi, Kaiba, Joey, or Mai, you'll want to get certain monster cards and will go to battle based upon what monsters your opponents are showing at that moment]. It may sound complicated, but after one or two games, you'll get the hang of it and enjoy it. It's one of the best investments in games I've made for my nephews.

2.0 out of 5 stars disapointed nephew, April 9, 2004

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

this game was a gift to my nephew aged 6, he grew tired and frustrated as the instructions i received in the box was a half a page long and had no real help at all! sentences like, and i quote: "the other cards put over there" with no diagrams of any sort, how did i know where "over there" was for all i know it could have been on my head! the game is okay when you realise how to play it but i would be firing the instruction writer, and telling him to learn how to make sense, if he knows english! to people interested, seek further instruction on the internet, and good luck

1.0 out of 5 stars complicated, but its yugi!, January 8, 2003

Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 

My kid loves everything Yugi, so whileI did not think this game was fun or easy to learn... he loved it right away. It has a weird tray to hold the parts and many different shape and size cards in box, but it is too small for the cards. So it is hard to pack up and makes a mess when you open it. The figures are nice and look like the show. And most important for kids, it has the Millenium puzzle.
