Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters is the second Yu-Gi-Oh! video game, following Yu-Gi-Oh! Monster Capsule: Breed and Battle. It is the first game in the Duel Monsters series, followed by Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters II: Dark duel Stories, and the only game released for the Game Boy. It was published in Japan by Konami on December 16, 1998.[1]

Cards

Thirteen of the cards Takahashi designed for the game.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters features 365 cards. This consists of:

Game options

The title screen and main menu

The following options are available at the main menu:

  • Campaign (キャンペーン kyanpēn): the game's story mode. Face AI opponents.
  • Versus (たいせん taisen): battle other players, using the Game Link Cable.
  • Trade (トレード torēdo): trade with other players via the Game Link Cable.
  • Records (せいせき seiseki): statistics and other information about the player.

There is also a password menu, which is only accessible by entering a secret code at the main menu.

Campaign

The player must defeat each character in a stage five times to advance to the next stage. A character that has been defeated five times can be Dueled additional times for more cards. Defeating Maximillion Pegasus five times causes the ending credits to roll. After that an additional Dark Stage appears, with Yami Yugi as an opponent.

Here are the list of characters that a player may Duel against:

Stage Image Opponents
Stage 1: Ship Stage 1: Ship
Stage 2: Duelist Kingdom Stage 2: Duelist Kingdom
Stage 3: Simon Muran Stage 3: Simon Muran
Final Boss Final Boss
Dark Stage Dark Stage

Versus

Players can battle other players, who have the same game, using the Game Link Cable via the Versus menu. The Deck can be altered before the battle, from this screen.

After a battle, the winner can take one card from the opponent's trunk. After every ten battles, the player is awarded a certain card.

Trade

Players can trade cards with other people who have a copy of the game, via the Game Link Cable.

From the trade screen, the player has three options, "chest", "check card" and "exchange card". The player must open the "chest" menu and select which cards they wish to trade. They can review the cards they have selected in the "check card" screen. The cards are traded when both players select "exchange card".

Communication Fusions can be conducted by trading certain cards.

Records

The records screen shows the player's name and communication battle statistics.

Obtaining cards

Starter Deck

The player starts the game with a 40-card Starter Deck which includes 33 Monster Cards, selected randomly from a pool of 100 monsters, as well as seven Magic Cards, which are always the same.[2]

Starter Deck

Monster Cards

Opponent drops

When an opponent is defeated, the player is given a card.

Each opponent has a different list of cards the player can get for beating them, with each card on the list having an assigned probability of randomly obtaining it. See Joey Wheeler (Duel Monsters 1) § Drops for example.

Victory bonuses

Each opponent also has a list of cards the player obtains after defeating that opponent a number of times in multiples of ten, up to 100.

Communication bonuses

By battling against a certain number of different opponents, using the Game Link Cable, certain cards could be unlocked, as summarized in the below table.

The card #347 "Tremendous Fire" was notoriously powerful in this game, with the ability to instantly inflict 5000 damage. It is also considered one of the most difficult cards to unlock, requiring to battle 200 different opponents.

Because no official method of erasing a saved game was ever published, players could not easily keep resetting a second copy of the game to face more unique opponents. However, there is a secret method to erase the saved game coded into the game. To achieve this, players can press the following buttons at the title screen: , , B, , , , , , , , B + . Other non-standard methods of erasing the save file involve directly tampering with the cartridge, which risks damaging it or the console used to play it.

# Card Number of battles
289 Change Slime 10
015 Flame Swordsman 20
026 Battle Ox 30
329 Dragon Capture Jar 40
004 Baby Dragon 50
051 Armored Lizard 60
340 Goblin's Secret Re 70
316 Electro-whip 80
011 Sword Arm of Drago 90
349 Spellbinding Circl 100
016 Time Wizard 110
090 Gyakutenno Megami 120
066 Kojikocy 130
052 Hercules Beetle 140
346 Ookazi 150
317 Cyber Shield 160
079 Megazowler 170
073 Kairyu-shin 180
022 Summoned Skull 190
347 Tremendous Fire 200

Trading

Cards can be traded from other games using the Game Link Cable.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters can connect with other copies of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters. Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters II: Dark duel Stories, the Japanese edition of Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories (Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters III: Tri-Holy God Advent), and Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 4: Battle of Great Duelist can connect to copies of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters.

Communication Fusion

A Communication Fusion can be performed using the Game Link Cable, while connecting to either a second copy of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters or Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters II: Dark duel Stories. This requires the two Fusion Material Monsters, as well as #289 "Change Slime". "Change Slime" has a chance of being included in the Starter Deck. After that it can only be obtained with a chance of 1/2048 per Duel, against certain opponents, or as the first communication bonus, after battling against ten different opponents.

The player gets to keep the card permanently, if they conduct a Fusion using this method.

Because #067 "Perfectly Ultimate" requires a total of eight Communication Fusions to obtain, each of which requires a copy of "Change Slime", it is considered to be an extremely difficult card to obtain.

Fusion Monster Material 1 Material 2
037 Gaia the Dragon Ch 038 Gaia The Fierce Kn 039 Curse of Dragon

Ante

After a communication battle, the winner must take one card from their opponent's trunk.

Passwords

Left: The guidebook, showing how to enter passwords and giving the password for "Stuffed Animal".
Right: Issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump, mentioning Game Boy passwords, while depicting "Fairy's Gift" and "Flying Penguin".

Nine of the fifteen secret cards in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters can be unlocked via passwords. These passwords use kana, rather than numbers or letters. Each password is the name of a staff member who worked on the game, or who worked on the manga series at Shueisha at the time. This was probably done because Duel Monsters was released before the first OCG set, Vol.1.

To access the password entry, the following button sequence must be entered on the main menu: , , B, , , +B, B. This requires frame-perfect input to succeed; if the game is being played on an emulator, the password entry can also be accessed by changing RAM address $DFDE to 0x06 and pressing B.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Perfect Master BOOK, released December 21, 1998, contains the password for #354 "Stuffed Animal".

The 1999 #9 issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump, released January 25, 1999, contains the passwords for #361 "Flying Penguin" and #363 "Fairy's Gift".

Temporarily obtaining cards

Fusion Summon

The Extra Deck does not exist in this game. Instead, Fusion Summons are performed during Duels by trying to Summon a monster from the hand on top of a monster on the field. The game features 2,159 fusions, resulting in 52 different monsters; often the same monster can be Summoned using a variety of Fusion Material, though eight of the monsters have only a single possible fusion.

All but one of the fusions in Duel Monsters use only monsters as material. The exception is #063: "Harpie Lady Sister", which is fused by equipping #062: "Harpie Lady" with #318: "Elegant Egotist". In the ROM, this fusion is handled as an effect, and is not stored with the monster-only fusions.

While the player does not receive a permanent copy of a monster Summoned by fusion, if a fused monster was not previously encountered, an entry for it is added.

Evolution

#278 "Petit Moth" and its stages evolve into other cards after being on the field for one turn, in the order shown below. Permanent copies of the evolutions are not added to the player's trunk, though if the player has not previously encountered one of the evolutions, an entry for it is added, similar to fused monsters.

#278 "Petit Moth" → #056 "Larvae Moth" → #072 "Cocoon of Evolutio" → #057 "Great Moth" → #067 "Perfectly Ultimate"

Only one copy of "Petit Moth" can be acquired per game, by defeating Weevil Underwood one hundred times. Permanent copies of its evolutions can only be acquired by Communication Fusion.

Having only 300 ATK and 200 DEF, and with AI opponents attacking when they have a stronger monster, it is usually difficult to keep "Petit Moth" on the field for a turn; there are only thirteen monsters in the game with a base ATK of 300 or less. "Petit Moth" can be protected in a few different ways:

  • Tristan Taylor does not have any monsters with more than 300 ATK, so will not attack an Attack Position "Petit Moth".
  • "Petit Moth" is strengthened by all Field Spell Cards in the game. By default, this would only increase its stats to 390 ATK and 260 DEF, which would not be enough to protect it from any additional monsters (the base ATK values featured in the game jump directly from 200 to 300, and from 300 to 400). However, "Petit Moth" is a special case: instead of its stats being increased by 30%, they are increased to 750 ATK and 450 DEF, except for when #330: "Forest" is active, which instead increases its stats to 975 ATK and 585 DEF. These boosts are enough to protect it against dozens of additional monsters (over a hundred in the case of "Forest").
  • #348 "Swords of Revealin" prevents the opponent from attacking for three turns.

The game's code allows certain Equip Cards to be used on "Petit Moth". However, since only a single card can be played per turn, and because "Petit Moth" evolves at the beginning of its controller's turn after being Summoned, it is not actually possible to equip any cards to "Petit Moth" before it evolves.

Rules

This game predates the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game and contains its own rules for Duel Monsters, most of which are based on the manga rules.

Deck construction

  • A player's Deck must contain exactly 40 cards.
  • A Deck can have up to 40 copies of the same card.

Duels

Setup

  • Each player starts with 8000 LP and five cards in their hand.
  • In campaign, the human player always goes first.

Playing cards

  • Except for the first turn, the player draws one card at the beginning of their turn.
  • A player may play one card per turn.
  • A player can Summon a monster into one of the five available zones or activate a Magic Card.
  • If a player attempts to Summon a monster into a zone occupied by another monster, the game will attempt to fuse the monsters. If the Fusion is valid, a new monster will be Summoned into the zone. If the Fusion is invalid, the second monster will replace the first.

Modifying ATK/DEF

  • Certain Magic Cards will modify the ATK and DEF of a chosen monster by boosting or reducing it by a number of stages. A monster has its ATK and DEF increased by 60% for each stage. A monster cannot be boosted by more than two stages.
  • Field Magic Cards can affect any monsters on the field, specific to the effect of the card. It may either increase the ATK and DEF by 30%, decrease them by 30%, or have no effect. There can only be one Field Card active at a time. This increase/decrease does not count towards the number of stages.

Battling

Battle screen showing #048 "Sangan" attacking #167 "Ancient Jar"
  • Each turn, the player must decide if each of their monsters is going to attack or defend.
    • If "attack" is selected, the monster is put in Attack Position and must attack a monster on the opponent's side of the field. If there are none, it will attack the opponent directly. A monster cannot be left in Attack Position at the end of a turn, without declaring an attack, unless it is the first turn or another card is preventing it from attacking.
      • When a monster attacks a player directly, the monster's ATK is deducted from the LP of the attacked player.
      • When a monster attacks an Attack Position monster, the monster with lower ATK is destroyed and the difference is deducted from the LP of the controller of the destroyed monster. If both monsters have the same ATK, they are both destroyed.
      • When a monster attacks a Defense Position monster: If the attacking monster's ATK is higher than the defending monster's DEF, the defending monster is destroyed. If the attacking monster's ATK is equal to or lower than the DEF of the defending monster, the difference is deducted from the LP of the controller of the attacking monster, and neither monster is destroyed.
    • If "defend" is selected, the monster is put in Defense Position.
  • The turn ends after the player has chosen an action for all of their monsters.

Winning

  • When a player's LP are reduced to 0, the other player is the winner.
  • If a player's hand is empty, the Duelist with the higher LP wins
  • If a player has all five "Exodia" pieces in their hand, they win.

Promotional cards

Each copy of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters came with three cards randomly selected from the following set of ten cards:[1]

The cards in this promotional set were from Konami's Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, a set of 21 cards that also included the Yu-Gi-Oh! Monster Capsule: Breed and Battle promotional cards and the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters meeting experience card. All of these cards were printed as Holofoil Rares and are Illegal because they predate the OCG and use a completely different card design.

Game guides

Two game guides for Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters were published in Japan by Shueisha: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Perfect Master BOOK, published on December 21, 1998,[3][4] and Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters Perfect Master BOOK Volume 2, published in January 1999.[5] Neither guide included any bundled promotional cards.
