This game is mediocrity incarnate and yet I have an immense soft spot for it, mostly due to nostalgia and perhaps some degree of brain rot.
The turn based combat is extremely slow and meandering with very little in the way of depth and complexity. In the extremely unlikely event that someone decides to play this and also happens to read this prior, please do so on an emulator and use the turbo/speed-up functionality to cut down on the mind numbing length of certain attack animations.
To me, the real draw to this game is pretty much solely in collecting Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters and picking your favorite ones to add to your characters' teams of 3. It's fun to see the creatures on the cards be represented in an RPG context and I always found it cool to see your monsters in the levels/maps that you progress through moving about as you command your characters from point a to point b. Admittedly however the novelty wears off very quickly because 95% of what you do in this game is thoughtless tedium.
