Players must duel with the townspeople to collect cards, decipher clues and solve puzzles in an effort to become the greatest Duel Master of them all! [Konami]

Modern TCG fans will probably either love it for being simple and different, or hate it for being old and unlike the current game.

PSX Nation

Daunting difficulty and narrow appeal...There are teeth of mine I'd pull with a pair of pliers rather than play this card game ever again.

GamePro

If you're not already a master, skip this game and try your luck with the real cards first.

GameZone

I would ultimately recommend this for either someone who has played the card game before or someone who has a lot of time to go through and write down or memorize the card combos and fusion results, since everything is trial and error.

GameSpot

An incredibly deep game, and being able to play with all the physical cards you own makes this game the ideal companion piece for avid collectors who want to see their cards duke it out in 3D.

This game has class. You can expect the unexpected. You'll never know what wil happen next so buy this game now if you had the guts.

8 because you need to play good people in the beginning then later you have to play meadow mage like 200-300 times to get MBD and other good cards, the graphics are okay for a ps1 game, the storyline is exicting, you do get to move around a little, and theres a little RPG.

This game is very good. I play it every day and I am trying to get 999,999 starchips. If you have patience and play it very often, it may be possible to get the magic amount in 2 or 3 years. And if you have 3 memorie cards you can get every card. It sure deserves a 10!

This game is quite fancy.......very good graphics.... OK, all people might be asking where to get good cards, especially to people who are fighting NiteMare, DarkNite, Seto 3rd, Heishin 2nd, High Mage Kepura, Labyrinth mages, Neku, and his accompany.... Tips.... To get good cards: TRY BATTLING THE LOW MEADOW MAGE he gives good cards such as: Dark Magician (2500/2100)=mercury, mars Skull Knight (2650/2250)=mercury, mars Gaia The Fierce Knight... (2300/2100)=mercury, jupiter and lastly... METEOR BLACK DRAGON (3500/2000)=mars, sun believe me...he give good cards! to get the ultimate equip, battle pegasus for this: the MEGAMORPH (+1000, atk:def), try getting an S, Tech rank. That's all i can give. Thanks!
