Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution Review | For the hardcore Yu-Gi-Oh! is at its absolute best when you are in a back and forth battle where both players are trading life points and their graveyards are full, and anything that makes that occur more often would’ve been better. Difficulty levels may have been, well, difficult to implement, but they would have made this a lot more balanced and enjoyable. operates at pretty much a master level when it comes to making moves. Conversely, there were plenty of matches where I knew I was going to lose after just the first three turns as the A.I. This sort of randomness is ultimately just part of the card game, but in a story-based mode it could have been in a more set manner to avoid such situations. Facing off against somebody as fearsome as Seto Kaiba should always be a terrifying task and a difficult battles, but there were some matches that I just steamrolled him as I got a better starting hand. The one disappointment with this mode is that it highlights how random the card game can truly be, especially when there are no difficulty modes for the A.I. Once a battle is completed, players can then play it from the opposite side and gain additional rewards that way. There are also several ways to play each battle as players can use the character’s card deck from the story to make it true to the show or use their own deck that they are building (which is great if you have an awesome deck and want to smash the competition). With some fun dialogue before and after the fights, this is a great trip through memory lane for anyone with more than a passing appreciation for the anime. The lengthiest campaigns top off at over 30 battles and the shorter ones are just a few battles short of that number.

It features all of the legendary duels from each of the six television series and is broken into each show individually, so if you just want to play the story of ZEXAL or ARC-V you can do just that. The biggest draw for fans of the anime will be Legacy of the Duelist‘s campaign mode.
Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution Review | A trip through memory lane The card game has continually built upon its solid as ever base, which is definitely a good thing for those that continue playing it, but it can be hard to grasp at times for a lapsed player.ĪLSO: Sony buying Insomniac Games is a great response to Microsoft’s studio purchasing spree The game has become a lot more complicated than simply understanding how your trap cards work and when to activate them, although this core knowledge is still needed. While I once thought that the idea of fusion monsters was out there, there are now everything from synchro and pendulum monsters (which each have several different properties that players will have to read up on before using) and the hilariously named xyz monsters. Of course, a lot has happened in the many years since I was a hardcore Yu-Gi-Oh! fanatic. And despite some missteps, this expansive entry made it easy to believe in the heart of the cards once again.
Naturally, I was excited to check out YU-GI-OH! LEGACY OF THE DUELIST: LINK EVOLUTIONfor the Nintendo Switch as it had been quite some time since I dusted off my Duel Disk. It was a transition into a more complex trading card game and its excellent cartoon and manga was the gateway drug that made plenty of kids believe in the “heart of the cards.” I had lost interest by the time that the main series had ended and spin-offs like GX and 5D’s had begun airing, but the series played an important role in my childhood. Yu-Gi-Oh! became popular at the perfect time in my adolescence right after people stopped trading and playing Pokemon cards and before the nerdiest students got into Magic the Gathering.
