Great PvE but iffy PvP
The PvE is really fun and great to play with new stages to progress too and a steady stream of events coming out that add new characters to duel and new cards to collect. The gem system in this game is pretty generous as well as they reward you a substantial amount for playing the game in which you can spend in the store to open card packs and build up your deck. The PvP is quite fun too, however once you start going up in the rank system you’ll find yourself dueling against people with advanced structured decks. You’ll soon realize that your going to have to spend large amounts of money opening packs to get specific cards and then resetting packs to open them again just build up your desired deck. I have spent more money than I should have on this game just to build advanced decks so I can at least stand a chance against people in the higher ranks. Crazy thing is I could probably build the exact same deck in real life for way less, I wish there was a option in where you could buy individual cards for a set price rather than gambling your money on packs hoping that you get that one specific card you need.Show lessChris A Chavez
That nastalgic itch I keep stratching
This game is a gem of the mobile gaming app store. Truthfully it's a game I continue to keep playing off and on. I've even started over a few times; still enjoying and loving every moment of them. It makes me want to be 10 years old on back on the school yard challenging my friends to d-d-d-duels, then I'm reminding through playing of my years in middle school selling cards for money on the side. As you can see this game really touches my heart strings. I'm a bias Komani fanboy but this game still okay perfect for a mobile market. (So generous and such addictive gameplay). The company has had the best history but if they can handle this property well and keep making great Monster Hunter games (also love) I'll keep giving them my money. Mind you, I've gone through both playthrough moments of "paying to win, good sir" to "um...free to play only plz" and both espects were equally as enjoyable. The gameplay is perfect and easy. Super straight-forward so anybody or fan can play this game. YOU DONT EVEN HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO SPELL "Yu-Gi-oh" TO ENJOY IT! Yuu-gee-ohh? U-Ji-oh? Oh forget it! Just let me keep playing.Show lessNayr1226
Pay to win to actually do decent in the game and op metas
I regret spending a dime on this game wish I could refund it and then delete this game, this game is fun at first but then you realize you have to pay to win to get decent decks, the metas are too op and spell/trap cards where just having them in your deck can guarantee a win if played right. Destiny hero’s, pray that they don’t start with mask change, they can play drilldark and special summon another monster, they both attack and drilldark has piercing damage so rip to your defense set cards and then the other card can attack too, both doing a lot of damage but then oh they play mask change and summon masked hero aniki and attack the same turn your dead, or you can start by putting aniki and another person out with drilldark, aniki attacks your monster kills it with its large attack and then boom because you killed that monster his ability is you get another mask change then attacks with drill dark 1 and then he uses mask change on him and boom your dead, oh and he can attack directly and that’s just one meta that tons of people use, don’t even get me started on some of the others, if that sounds fun download the game and pay to win because if you don’t good luck getting any where in the gameShow lessLiamlukecage1999
Player since day one but...
There are a couple of huge issues which might ruin the entire game. Connection issues are number 1 on the list. When im dueling a newb they take forever once they see im messing with them and then i LOSE because of a connection error? My connection is perfect and i have an Iphone? Won’t even get into that further its obviously an issue on the games end of things. That is MY main issue. Number 2 is mostly for everyone else although there are time when even i can’t get around this card. Yubel has to be banned. Thats it. Not nerfed. Banned. That card has so many flaws and its like being able to use victory dragon in a real world tcg tournament. Come on guys get rid of it before you see half your player population decrease. Up to you but these are the biggest issues. Pay to play and all the other mumbo jumbo can easily be bested if you put time and grind like i have. Fis those two issues i mentioned above and the game will be more enjoyable. And thank you for the game itself, as i also appreciate the work put into a game like this which is why i gave it 4 stars still. But please fix what was mentioned above.Show lessTheBoss224
Best Card Game Period.
This is by far a 5 star mobile game. If you enjoy the strategy it takes to play these games then this is the game for you. Do not listen to reviews that say you have to pay money to be competitive. It’s just not true. You can be lazy and spend the money if you’ve got it. Will say prices aren’t to unreasonable in this game. But you can also grind in this game. If you play it right and go for your stage challenges and unlock all the playable characters. You can get about 2,000 gems from every character in the game. It is not hard to get everyone to lvl 30 it is what I did and I’ve had no problem playing competitive. Also every time a box comes out the kind developers give away at least 500 gems. Not to mention the 5,000 gems you get when you start. So they definitely let you decide which way you want to go with your deck. On top of all that there are several events that happen all throughout every week with chances to get good cards. Every event eventually makes its way back around and you can get another chance if you missed out before. So as you can see this is a great game with loads of opportunity to make yourself great in however play style you like to duel.Show lessArmored Warlock
Awesome game....but
Ok ok ok listen up yugioh duel links is a awesome game hands down one of the best card games I’ve played in a long time..graphics nice game play nice animation nice...but that is where it ends....I gave it a 3 stars mainly due to the sheer amount of modders that is on the game..it makes pvping with another person almost non existent...like for instance how can someone have 2 turns or 3 turns when you have not made a single turn ? Questionable correct? Also certain damage mods it’s ridiculous...I know most of these card and when you summon a 7 or 8 star card that is supposed to have a tribute of 2 or more cards just pop up with no special summoning card or special summoning effect on the previous card or on the 7+ star card that was just summoned raises red flags..I know my yugioh played it for years and I know almost every rule there is..and when no special effect or summoning card or skill that allows a 7+ star card to be summoned and go from 1300 atk to 6000 atk during atk phase only that throws a huge red card...it’s a good game if you challenging the game itself but if you pvp just know likely chances of modders fighting you is about 65 to 76% most from Mexico Brazil and foreign countries and also Canada as well. Just a forewarning for any who wishes to pvp.Show less808nofuks
The whole strategy element is gone😭😒😩☹️😡😡😡
I wish I could say the game is as good as the well, game (the card game I mean) But the skillfulness has been drained by IAP and using “ structure decks” as crutches. You don’t even have to have a brain you just activate tons of field spells and monster effects to make certain incredibly weak monsters incredibly strong so even if you use your creative deck that doesn’t cost any money and you’re still going to lose regardless of strategy. The opposite of the card game you can cheat in so many ways with money I mean I know that real cards cost money but I can’t help that. For example I fusion summoned an incredibly strong with two thousand nine hundred attack. It’s about to destroy a monster with 1000 attack when my opponent activates about five field spells then it’s attack rises until it’s the same as mine. Five seconds later my fusion goes to waste in the graveyard then she summons like some other monsters that are related to that monster and they are also incredibly weak and then she activates the same field spells over and over and over and then monster affects that make those incredibly weak monsters incredibly strong so she directly attacked me and I lose! seriously? 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡Show lessPython 🐍
Probably the best card game app available
I really enjoy this app. I played Hearthstone but it felt like such a horrible grind just to get cards that were remotely useful. This app gives you so many options to get competitive fairly quickly. You can definitely pay for packs, and I have honestly considered it (because I legitimately want to support this app, not actually because I need the cards) but the nice thing is I don’t feel like I have to in order to play competitively.
I want to throw a special shout out to one particular feature that really deserves recognition: the vagabond. If you don’t know his reputation just do a quick google search, he has challenges that make it hard to win but used super op decks that seemed to always get the best draws. With the recent changes to the vagabond I see him as a really valuable resource in the game. His challenges are a little bit better tuned, and the XP gains are still wonderful. The thing that really adds value, though, is that the vagabond gives you the chance to look at his deck after dueling him. His decks are taken from high ranking duelists, so this is a great way to see what the best players are using, what’s meta, and what is being tech’d in certain decks.
Overall this is an easy 5 stars. I have personally recommended this app to friends by word of mouth and I will gladly continue playing it!Show lessCartercr
Massive cuts to F2P gems
Konami has decided the gem amount we got from events was too much, and has been drastically cutting the amount you can get from playing the game. Removing it from new character level up rewards, dropping the minimum reward from events from 5 to 1 ( you had a small chance of even getting them already) and gutting the amount we got from events we’ve already had - one going now used to give 600 over a few days, it has since been reduced to 200 over the same time period. They also greatly reduced how much you get from daily log ins, which already wasn’t even enough for a single pack from a box of 200 packs at 50 gems each.
On top of the reduced gems they give us, they’ve also decided to increase the number of packs in mini boxes from 80 to 100. These mini boxes were generally the best way for F2P players to have relevant decks for the meta, so naturally it makes sense for Konami to make it harder to get the cards you want from them. It’s ridiculous, and at this point I’m not interested in sticking around to see what else they try to “improve” I would not recommend playing with the directing Konami is taking the game, I would recommend staying away completely and for people already playing to either drop the game or refuse to spend any more money on it.Show lessmyfirsnamewastaken
Love the game itself but pvp is a disappointment
First off let me say that I have loved Yu-Gi-Oh since I was a kid and I like how the game has certain cards that are unique to some players as well as skills. However as I got more into the game I noticed that the new boxes that came out featured more and more cards that harmonize together and have chaining effects without the player having to come up with a strategy to use them. This is a problem I feel because it takes away from the originality of coming up with your own deck and trying new ideas you may have. I believe that’s what made yu-hi-oh the great game that it is because of the originality and prowess each duelist showed with their own deck.
Even so this concept of getting all your monster, spell, and trap cards from the same box and just using them as they come requires almost no thought or skill to use especially when you use them with a character’s skill that’s made for them. This is overall my only problem with the game the pvp has become way to easy for players who choose not to put as much thought into how their deck is formed and it makes duelists who are amateurs able to become high ranking the pvp players just by spending a little money on boxes. Again I like the game but this is a real problem that in my opinion should be addressed more going forward.Show lessMidnightblack86
