alongside characters that appear in the series. It takes place in Ancient Egypt and in modern times. Throughout most of the game, the protagonist is Atem, the Prince of Ancient Egypt. After the high priest Heishin overthrows Pharaoh, he sets out to free Egypt from Heishen?s rule. It is later revealed that Heishin seeks to usher the return of Nitemare, an ancient evil wizard. For modern times era, the protagonist is Yugi Mutou. He is taking part in a tournament when he is tasked by Atem with retrieving relics that the Prince needs to complete his quest, which are held by some of the contestants in the tournament.
Game Play : This game plays differently than the TCG, because it uses the prototype rules that were originally being considered when the card game was first being transferred over from the manga. Many rules such as Tribute Summons, Effect Monsters and the need for "Polymerization" to perform Fusion Summons are eliminated. Also Ritual Spell cards demand specific tributes (For example, when you activate "Zera Ritual" you may have a "King of Yamimakai", a "Ryu-Kishin Powered" and a "Wicked Dragon with the Ersatz Head" to offer them as tributes and finally summon "Zera the Mant")
