I don’t care as much because I have mine but for anyone new seems like they’ll be their opportunity to receive Basically budget URs, SRs. Been playing since it first came out love it! ### 4/5 — Almost 5 stars *2026-08-05, version 2.8.0* Amazing platform and execution of creating a true duel atmosphere. I would give 5 stars but although the game is free, greed has took the forefront. Enjoy one good deck because obtaining URs has become an obvious scam to force users to pay for gem bundles. Basically killed the free to play concept. One ranked ladder system is also ridiculous, with so many possibilities, the ladder has remained the same since creation with occasional events that only get played for the chance to finally get gems for playing and sitting through full games. ### 1/5 — Yugioh is mid now *2026-08-05, version 2.8.0* Grew up on this game, the idea for the app is brilliant but the fact that everyone has turns that last an hour now and everyone is a sweat that trys to otk you it’s not even fun anymore. Need to make a mode that only allows classic ruled up to synchro summons and it would fix the issue for alot of players ### 2/5 — Cant even login *2026-08-05, version 2.8.0* I would love to play if it wasnt for the fact that every update release time, you have to add another hour due to staggering logins…. ### 1/5 — Games getting boring now *2026-08-04, version 2.8.0* To many copy cat duellists using the same decks because there ranked the best ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-03, version 2.8.0* Bien playing forever ### 1/5 — What’s the point of importing cards from Neuron? *2026-08-01, version 2.8.0* Just spent hours and hours scanning hundreds of cards to build my original decks digitally. Imported them into Master Duel to finally battle with them, and it’s prohibited. Even in the solo offline modes. Absolute rubbish. ### 2/5 — Almost good *2026-07-31, version 2.8.0* The game is good but other players that are already very good at the game are in ranks for new players not allowing them to have fun losing every match ### 5/5 — I love Yugioh *2026-07-31, version 2.8.0* Been playing with my kids since they were 5 years old ### 1/5 — Trash game based on luck! *2026-07-28, version 2.7.0* Going first format coin toss is “50/50” but guaranteed with the bots you win 20-30% Leaving you at a disadvantage. Probably the worst game to be invested in. Dont even waste your money with the high prices for little regards. They know how to make a bad game and They only care for money so probably shouldn’t spend. If only they cared to fix the problems. Fix the game bc it shows how little they care ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Was good all the new cards are basically cheats *2026-08-14, version 2.8.0* This game was fun when it first came out but it’s not anymore. All this can is now is 20 min of waiting for the other guy to reuse the same card over and over till they destroy everything on yours ### 1/5 — Trash game based on luck! *2026-08-13, version 2.8.0* Going first format coin toss is “50/50” but guaranteed with the bots you win 20-30% Leaving you at a disadvantage. Probably the worst game to be invested in. Dont even waste your money with the high prices for little regards. They know how to make a good game bad and They only care for money so probably shouldn’t spend. If only they cared to fix the problems. Fix the game bc it shows how little they care. Ratings dropping as they should be. And they add awful events with poor ban lists. ### 1/5 — Dj Lee *2026-08-13, version 2.8.0* Same thing no love but I only love the original version game not this update! ### 1/5 — Connectivity *2026-08-12, version 2.8.0* I always loose connection to the game server mid duel and it is soooooo frustrating ### 1/5 — Need to fix the spam *2026-08-11, version 2.8.0* Spamming summons and basically who get to go first ### 1/5 — Rank system sucks! *2026-08-10, version 2.8.0* The rank system is pretty good when you’re going against real players, but when they make it where you go against a bot with a deck that full counters yours is just unfair and not fun. ### 1/5 — Disgusting unbalanced manipulated game *2026-08-10, version 2.8.0* If you want to keep your mental healthy, stay away from this evil game. yuigoh is a disaster now, only one can play the game even there are 2 players. Totally no fun at all. ### 1/5 — The worst match making *2026-08-10, version 2.8.0* My first game I was pared with an expert ,not the tutorial ,on the first live game I played. There would be no point after that so I gave up but no other complaints with the game ### 1/5 — Trash system *2026-08-09, version 2.8.0* It’s ridiculous how hard it is to build a decent deck, and then when you finally do, losing a single duel means you get absolutely nothing for your time—not even a bit of Battle Pass progress. There’s literally no incentive to keep playing. ### 1/5 — Can we stop with the unlimited special summons for this game. *2026-08-08, version 2.8.0* I was a 1998 dualist and I love yugioh very much when I was a kid now I am adult and I am ashamed there’s so many different mechanics in this game don’t get me wrong I like it but the problem is these opponents keep special summons monsters all over and over again and get a big boss monster who has flipping 1,0000 ATK points >< and lose!!! Geeze. Make few laws about special summons on turns that way we can do something to summon our monsters too for balance but geeze man yugioh magic is gone … ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This is awesome *2026-08-15, version 2.8.0* This takes me right back to watching the og show as a kid ### 5/5 — Mutt *2026-08-14, version 2.8.0* 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 ### 5/5 — h.e.l *2026-08-12, version 2.8.0* sooooooo good me and my siblings have been having a blast ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS GAME!! *2026-08-11, version 2.8.0* TOP5 ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2026-08-07, version 2.8.0* This game makes you more susceptible to depression and self harm 10/10 would recommend. I’d actually give this game 11/10 but maxx c is still legal. ### 5/5 — Good fun *2026-08-07, version 2.8.0* I have this game on ps4 I like it’s hard at times but still a lot of fun ### 5/5 — This game sucks please bring back yugioh cross duel *2026-08-06, version 2.8.0* Please petty please do it ### 5/5 — Incredible *2026-08-05, version 2.8.0* I don't enjoy playing the physical TCG as much because disagreements about game interactions and rulings can sometimes take away from the experience. In Master Duel, I never have to worry about that. I can play for hours, improve my skills, climb the ranked ladder, and work my way up to Master Rank. I hope that one day they release a version of the game with fully animated 3D monsters like the old Nintendo games. Even if it had a more limited card pool, I think it would make duels feel even more immersive and exciting. ### 5/5 — Yu gi oh master duel *2026-08-05, version 2.8.0* Best game ever keep pushing this will last a century if u keep it up the cards are really understandable their good can make builds that don’t even to the deck and still beat tankers with different cards this game getting keep up the good work Konami god bless y’all ### 5/5 — Good but… *2026-08-04, version 2.8.0* It’s good good everything is made great but the way yugioh has gone you gotta wait 20 minutes for the opponent to finish his/her turn for his combo to finish which is stupid so much for the good old classic card game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
