Starting with the first series and its comparatively simple mechanics, the narrative has expanded over the years to include characters, cards, and mechanics from the GX series all the way to V-Rains. It brings its long, storied history and thousands upon thousands of cards into one long online mobile card game. But that hasn't stopped it from being a blast to play during these strange times.įor fans of the series past or present, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links serves as an All-Stars game. Entering its fourth year now, by limiting the play space, deck size, and shortening turns, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links cleverly reimagines the hit 2000s card game for bite-sized battles: presumably to suit the pre-pandemic busybodies on the trains.
