Plot

In Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Duel Academy the player is in the role of a new student which has just enrolled in the Duel Academy (which was founded by Kaiba from the original anime series).

Gameplay

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Duel Academy is primarily a card battling game, but also has story and even some basic role playing elements. The basic rule set is almost identical to other Yu-Gi-Oh games that use the real life card game rule set, but this time around features the characters from the Yu-Gi-Oh GX anime series rather than the original.

The player starts off in the Slifer Red dorm. Once all of the duelists in the Slifer Red dorm have been defeated, then it moves on to the Ra Yellow dorm followed by the Blue Obelisk dorm.
