    Beneath the wave of nostalgia I've replayed this game recently to see my opinions of it, and the game holds up well. Game plays well, the AI is relatively good (I've found that a few enemies have set strategies that are pretty predictable, but that's really no different from facing a normal human so it passes), the music holds up fairly well, all I can minimum for a game is to have a goodBeneath the wave of nostalgia I've replayed this game recently to see my opinions of it, and the game holds up well.

It's chess, but Yu-Gi-Oh Chess with stuff like leveling up, type matchups, and evolution. If you're a Yu-Gi-Oh fan, it holds up very well, so give it a try if you can snatch a copy nowadays! Expand

    This game design tests your strategy and is loads of fun building your capsule monster army. It's beautiful designed and very unique. To me it's a must play!

    A mecânica é ótima, trás inúmeras possibilidades. Talvez o maior problema seja o pouco que podemos explorar das criaturas aumentando de nível, evoluindo. O jogo é rápido para concluir, mas muito lento para iniciar as cenas de batalhas entre as criaturas. Como hoje (2020) está tudo mais veloz, darei uma nota que acho compreensivo se eu jogasse na época. Outro motivo é porque não exploraramA mecânica é ótima, trás inúmeras possibilidades.

  1. As a turn based battle game however, it’s not very good. You are given a small amount of creatures, a single strategy that will win almost every time, and lackadaisical enemy AI.

    For the rest of us [non-Yu-Gi-Oh! fans], it's a passable strategy RPG. [Jan 2005, p.107]

    At least mildly accessible and appealing even for entry-level fans. [Jan 2005, p.72]
