In episode 80, this card was used as part of a Duel Puzzle that Crow Hogan, Jack Atlas, Yusei Fudo and Bruno had to solve in order to find out who stole Yusei's program. On Bruno's attempt, he activates the effect of "Tragoedia" to take control of this card by sending "Bird King Alector" (who was Level 4 through "Cost Down") from his hand to the Graveyard. Bruno chooses to take control of this card as its effect will prevent the Password Robot's set "Mirror Force" from activating. Bruno then activates "Tribute to the Doomed" to destroy "Green Gadget". This makes the ATK of "Stronghold the Moving Fortress" 0 as "Green Gadget", "Red Gadget", and "Yellow Gadget" were not all present on the Password Robot's field.
