The first time I played this, it was the Yu-Gi-Oh card fever. The cheesy movie (distributed by Fox) got released on DVD in our shores, and the series was definitely ongoing. So naturally, brand identification played a big part in this.

The gameplay is... blah, the pacing will make you snooze and the cutscenes are boring. And you know what? I never really finished it, I didn't want to end up sleeping all day!

But still, the slow pacing will probably make for long play sessions if you're the type who buys games and, regardless of good or bad, tries to really play it and end it. So... a long playtime facade for value? How cheap.

Overall, this game is for the most die-hard of the Yu-Gi-Oh bunch, if ever there still will be anyway. (Oh wait, in my country there probably still is, LOL.)
