Decent writing, loyalty to the series, and branching paths really contribute to an enjoyable storytelling experience. All of it executed better than what one could possibly expect, and for that, this game definitely gets some props from me at the story front. The characters all seem to retain most of their personality traits from the television series, and the story progresses decently, with two different “timelines” happening depending on the side you take. The story here is odd to say the least, as I never thought I’d be combining my European history with my children’s card games, but it works well enough. Everything starts off rather fast, but there is a nice opening cinematic that does explain the story well enough for you to understand. The faction of the White Rose headed by Kaiba and YuGiOh villains, and the faction of the Red Rose, headed by Yugi and the other heroes of the series. They all go by the same names, but they’re actually historical people divided up into two factions. With a story mode based on the actual English War of the Roses, you play as a duelist summoned from the future by characters from the anime. The graveyard lottery system used to get you more cards from your opponents. Our subject for today, Duelists of the Roses created a unique, and yet not so well received gameplay style loosely based on the popular card game. There were some, however, like today’s subject, that kind of took a different route. What was a young Abyssal to do? Well, luckily for myself, there were video games made! Most of them pretty loyally following how the card game played out. Sometimes though, as a kid, I couldn’t find a whole lot of people to duel all of the time. Although the game has somewhat lost its luster over the years with all of its expansions on rules and card types, I still like to go back and duel every now and again.


The strategy, the fun, the players – all of it has just been a huge part of not only my childhood, but my high school days as well. What else could I possibly confess to? Well, turns out, I’ve been a huge nerd for the Yu-Gi-Oh card game from a young age, and still am.

I’ve confessed to being a closet sports fan, and a fan of professional wrestling. I seem to have had a lot of confessions made during my tenure at the Bacon.
