Hone your battle skills as you take on over one hundred duels in this addictive and challenging adventure.

Konami has messed with the format of its card-based empire, but now it has found a home. In order to get you to explore the new overworld map and fight everyone, The Sacred Cards gives you Duelist Points for battles won. Collect enough of these and you can access better cards and increase the size of your deck. While vets may find this limiting, it helped me to understand and manage my deck and trunk effectively. Regardless of your skill, everyone will be thankful for the improved battle interface. Sounds like I liked this game. Well, maybe I did.
