In the course of normal gameplay, there are a number of ways a card can be permanently or temporarily obtained:
 
* In the player's [[#Starter Deck|Starter Deck]]
 
* By entering a [[#Passwords|password]]
 
* By random drop after winning or drawing a Duel
 
* By milestone drop after winning a multiple of 10 times against a given opponent, up to 100 wins
 
* By taking part in a number of linked battles, in increments of 10, up to 200
 
* Monster fusion, using the link cable
 
* Temporarily by monster fusion, during a battle
 
 
However, certain cards cannot be obtained by any of these methods, and therefore must either be traded from a later game, or apparently cannot be obtained at all. Cards which cannot be permanently acquired are listed below, with notes on how they can be temporarily acquired where known.

===Opponent drops===
 +
When an opponent is defeated, the played 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 obtaining randomly it. See [[Joey Wheeler (Duel Monsters 1)#Random drops]] for example.
 +
 +
Each opponent also has a list of cards the player is guaranteed to obtain after defeating a number of times in multiples of ten, up to 100. See [[Joey Wheeler (Duel Monsters 1)#Milestone drops]] for example.

===Trading===
 +
Cards can be traded from other games using the [[wikipedia:Game Link Cable|Game Link Cable]].
 +
 +
''Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters'' can connect with other copies of ''Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters'', as well as ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters II: Dark Duel Stories]]'' and the Japanese edition of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories|Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters III: Dark Duel Stories]]''.
 +
 +
===Fusion Summon===
 +
The [[Extra Deck]] does not exist in this game. [[Fusion Summon]]s can be performed in Duels by trying to [[Summon]] a monster from the [[hand]] on top of a monster on the [[field]]. Often the same monster can be Summoned, using various different Fusion Material.
 +
 +
By summoning a monster this way, the player only gets the monster for the duration of the Duel.
 +
 +
===Link Cable Fusion===
 +
A 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! Dark Duel Stories|Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters III: Dark Duel Stories]]''. This requires the two Fusion Material Monsters, as well as "[[Change Slime (DM1)|Change Slime]]".
 +
 +
The player gets to keep the card permanently, if they conduct a Fusion using this method.

Each opponent also has a list of cards the player is guaranteed to obtain after defeating a number of times in multiples of ten, up to 100. See Joey Wheeler (Duel Monsters 1)#Milestone drops for example.

# Card Number of battles
015 Flame Swordsman 20
026 Battle Ox 30
329 Dragon Capture Jar 40

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, as well as Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters II: Dark Duel Stories and the Japanese edition of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters III: Dark Duel Stories.

Fusion Summon

The Extra Deck does not exist in this game. Fusion Summons can be performed in Duels by trying to Summon a monster from the hand on top of a monster on the field. Often the same monster can be Summoned, using various different Fusion Material.

By summoning a monster this way, the player only gets the monster for the duration of the Duel.

Link Cable Fusion

A 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 III: Dark Duel Stories. This requires the two Fusion Material Monsters, as well as "Change Slime".

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

Passwords

The first screen of the password feature.

Nine cards in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters have passwords. These passwords use kana instead of numbers or letters, and each one 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, though it is not known why so few of the cards in Duel Monsters have passwords, especially since at least nine individuals are listed in the credits, but only six of them had passwords, and since Duel Monsters includes 15 secret monsters, but only nine of them can be unlocked with a password.

Title screen

The following cards cannot be obtained by any of the above methods, apart from trading with another game.

Gameplay

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters features 365 cards, with the last 15 cards being secret. The basic rules differ greatly from the OCG, and are generally simpler.

  • There are 315 Normal Monsters (from number 001 to 300, and from 351 to 365) and 50 Spell Cards (from number 301 to 350) in the game; these are the only types of cards featured. None of the cards are Forbidden or Limited.
  • While there are no Fusion Monsters (and thus no Fusion Deck), fusions can be performed by trying to summon a monster from the hand on top of a monster on the field (e.g. "Ansatsu" + "Darkfire Dragon" = "Flame Swordsman").
  • Monsters only have an ATK, DEF, Type, and description. Levels, Attributes, and Alignments are not featured in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters, and monsters can be summoned without tributing.
  • There is no Deck Cost and no limit to the number of copies of one card which can be in a Deck, but the Deck must contain exactly 40 cards and the player can only have one Deck at a time. There is no Side Deck.
  • Each Duelist's hand consists of five cards.
  • Each turn has the same layout:
    1. The turn player draws a card.
    2. The turn player must play one card from their hand. If their hand is empty, the Duel ends and the Duelist with higher Life Points wins. Only one card can be played from the hand each turn.
    3. The turn player must attack with or switch to Defense Position each monster on their side of the field.
    4. The turn ends.
  • The player always goes first in a Duel, but does not draw a card and cannot attack on the first turn.
  • Battle screen showing "Sangan" attacking "Ancient Jar".
    Attacking works the same as it does in the OCG and TCG.
    • If the attack target is in Attack Position:
      • If the monsters have different ATK, the monster with the lowest ATK is destroyed and its controller takes battle damage equal to the difference.
      • If the monsters have equal ATK, both monsters are destroyed and neither Duelist takes battle damage.
    • If the attack target is in Defense Position:
      • If the attack target's DEF is greater than the attacker's ATK, neither monster is destroyed and the attacking monster's controller takes battle damage equal to the difference.
      • If the attack target's DEF is lower than the attacker's ATK, the attack target is destroyed and its controller does not take battle damage.
      • If the attack target's DEF equals the attacker's ATK, neither monster is destroyed and neither Duelist takes battle damage.
    • If the opponent has no monsters, the turn player can attack the opponent directly. In this case, the opponent takes battle damage equal to the attacking monster's ATK.
  • The player receives a card after every win or draw. Milestone drops are also awarded after every 10 wins against each opponent, up to 100 wins per opponent.

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.
