The ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' anime and manga series introduces an original card game created by Takahashi. Different names can be used to refer to the game depending on where it appears:
*'''''Magic & Wizards''''' ('''''M&W''''') — the original name of the card game, used in the original ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' ([[Yu-Gi-Oh!#Yu-Gi-Oh! (original manga)|Japanese]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh!#English manga|English versions]]) manga, ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! R]]'' and in the Japanese version of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! RGX (manga)|Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]''. In the case of the English manga, the game is renamed ''Duel Monsters'' in later-released chapters.
*'''''Duel Monsters''''' — used in Toei Animation's ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' anime, the second series ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' anime ([[Yu-Gi-Oh!#Japanese anime|Japanese]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh!#English anime|English versions]]), manga ([[Yu-Gi-Oh!#English manga|English version]] only), and [[Yu-Gi-Oh!#Movies|movies]]. The name is introduced to replace ''Magic & Wizards'', probably due to its similarity to ''Magic: The Gathering''.
*'''''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game|Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game: Duel Monsters]]''''' ('''''Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG''''') — the original name of the real ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' card game released by [[Konami]], used mostly in Asia.
