This 3D board game consists of a series of duels, which are played with cards. The game has been split up in a Campaign Mode, in which you take on all levels of the Monster Coliseum on your own, a Free Battle Mode where you play skirmish matches against enemies defeated in the campaign, and a versus mode to take on a human opponent. Before starting, you have to choose a symbol, assign parameters to it (based on monster points, action points and power points) and buy a starter kit card deck. In a typical campaign game, you start in the entrance hall, where you manage your cards and monsters. To duel, you choose one of the four areas with five levels each, and defeat the opponents. New monsters are acquired by winning the match. The turn-based duels are played as a card game. Both characters start with a deck of cards and a number of health points. When a health status reaches zero, the battle is over. You attack your opponent by summoning monsters and assigning abilities to them. Trick cards can be used to gain both offensive and defensive advantages. Before each duel, you have to pick a monster that is up for ante, and the fighting is influenced by various parameters, including the land form you are playing on. Less

Neat, epic and fun to play.
This review is for the PlayStation 2 version

Capsule Monsters brought to life, if I had to summarize. The graphics are beautiful, including the characters design, the field, the pieces, the monsters...everything was really well made and rich. The characters got voice acting and it's great. As a strategy game, it's very well balanced, you do have to build strategies and think carefully if you want to win, it's challenging and fun, and as you can choose your element in the beginning of the game, you can play over and over again using different strategies each time, involving different types and attributes of monsters. If I had to make this game even better, I would add more characters, make it possible to play as other main characters to experience their own storyline (not just Yugi's), add even more monsters and add more challenges/stages. The story isn't anything elaborated, and I wouldn't expect it to be considering it's a Capsule Monsters championship. I had a lot of fun playing this game, I think any Yugioh fan would enjoy it as well, it was a very nice experience for me.
