    This game was Great! AWSOME! Windwaker on the other hand is the epitome of evil. The cell-shading they used makes me puke for eight days! Ocarina of Time was the best game ever. I didn't expect Windwaker to be better, but they could have at least tried! Oh, and by the way, Yugioh The FalseBound Kingdom was a masterpiece! A shining example to all other RPG's, and believe me, I This game was Great! AWSOME! Windwaker on the other hand is the epitome of evil. The cell-shading they used makes me puke for eight days!

A shining example to all other RPG's, and believe me, I have played A LOT of RPG's! This game's story was also exellent. Most games don't even have half of the story this one had. If you want a challenging yet fun game, inlayed with a rich plot and first-class gameplay, BUY THIS GAME!… Expand

    It might have only takin me 3 days to complete I still like the game, and gameplay might be a bit slow, but the game is still fun and the graphics and sounds are amazing, you can hear every grunt made by your monster! This isn't quite my favorite Yugioh game but it was second best!

    Great Game and all but the gameplay is too slow when you fight a battle sometimes you fight for an hour or if you go right for the boss maybe ten minutes. Ive heard when you complete kaiba and yugi storylines joey appears as a main char and does the winged dragon of ra. Im not sure but I think they got it messed up a bit because when you select yugi at a new game slifer comes at you but Great Game and all but the gameplay is too slow when you fight a battle sometimes you fight for an hour or if you go right for the boss maybe ten minutes.

    After Reviewing this game I found its only downfall was its game pace. It's a great mergance of two good genres. All of you who are bashing the game have to take a less impassioned standpoint and look at this game a little more objectively. Give it a chance!

    Such an underrated game, the music is good the story is decent enough, and the gameplay is really good aswell.

    Now those scores are just ridiculous this game was hugely misinterpreted by the looks of it.

    Its technical shortcomings are easy to ignore and once you grasp the unique gameplay, it turns out to be quite a lot of fun. Definitely recommended for fans, they're sure to have a ball.

    Even with relatively few RPGs on the GameCube, Falsebound Kingdom's relatively simple approach isn't that captivating - unless you're a Yu-Gi-Oh fan who is a newbie to the RPG genre. [Jan 2004, p.141]

    All of the elements were there to make this an addictive and challenging title. Instead, it's a slow-paced and confusing jumble.
