I know this can be said for any simulator, and people decry how sports games aren't a replacement for playing the actual sport - and that's true - but Yu-Gi-Oh!'s a bit of a special case. This is a bit of a double-edged sword, but I also don't think it can replace the feeling of using physical cards. I could draw a card and realize it was the exact same useless spell card that's already in my hand and that doesn't do anything in the situation I'm in. It can be useful to have double of one card or another, but most of the time I found that it hurt me rather than helped me. When I used legacy decks - the same that were used in the show during specific battles - instead of my own custom deck, it was frustrating to see so many repeating cards. More is always better in this regard, I just don't think it changes the game enough - though I realize there's only so much you can change a Yu-Gi-Oh! game while retaining the series' core mechanics. In practice, it doesn't make for a drastically different game. It adds, like the name implies, Link Monster cards along with an increased roster and about another 2,000 or so cards. Link Evolution is an updated version of Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist that was released in 2015. There are no microtransactions in Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution. Opening up the packs and seeing which cards you've received scratches that itch of opening up a loot box without actually needing to spend any money. Collecting cards is a huge element to any Yu-Gi-Oh! game, whether it be digital or physical. You'll need to strategize differently and no two duels will ever play the same way.īy participating in duels, you'll win Duel Points that can be redeemed for new cards. This essentially adds double the amount of content to the game because you're using an entirely different deck of cards. Those who want to take a spin and duel as the villain can do so in reverse duels. The game then walks you through the duel by telling you which cards to play and explains the rules that you'll need to know. The first match in each series is a tutorial match that is impossible to lose as it's predetermined which cards you and your opponent will draw. Should you get tired of the original series, you can jump right on ahead to Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal, Arc-V or VRAINS. While you need to play the duels in a specific series chronologically and can't skip around until you beat the previous opponent, you can choose between each series without needing to completely beat the previous one. If you're a hardcore Yu-Gi-Oh! fan, there is a lot to love here. It's every kid's dream for anyone who grew up watching the show and collecting the cards. It features over 150 iconic battles across several generations of Yu-Gi-Oh!, with 10,000 cards at your disposal (many of which need to be unlocked first).
