As an avid Magic the Gathering player, I’ve never had much reason to look in to Yu-Gi-Oh!, but after spending a little time with Yu-Gi-Oh! Bam Pocket, they’ve definitely got my attention. The game itself is like a simple, yet complex (Oh, the cliches!) version of card war. You drop creature cards with power values, potentially buff ’em up with spells, and mash ’em together. It all works out really well, but I’m not sure I’m fully wrapping my head around the deck building strategy yet.
I’m definitely pleasantly surprised by this release, and will definitely get deeper into it once it hits the US at 11:00 PM tonight. I’m curious though, of the Yu-Gi-Oh! players out there, how closely does this resemble the actual paper card game?
