The manga series that inspired the card game that swept the globe! Tenth-grader Yugi always had his head in some game-until he solved the Millennium Puzzle, an Egyptian artifact containing the spirit of a master gambler from the age of the pharoahs! Possessed by the puzzle, Yugi becomes Yu-Gi-Oh, the King of Games, and challenges evildoers to the Shadow Games...weird games with high stakes and high risks! The diabolical Player Killer, Pegasus’s second gaming assassin, challenges Yugi to a Shadow Game! In the shadow of the Castle of Dark Illusions card, an army of lurking monsters hungers to steal Yugi’s life points-and if he loses, his actual life! Then the action moves into underground tunnels beneath Duelist Kingdom. There Yugi and Jonouchi must conquer the maze of the Meikyu Brothers in a two-on-two duel. Waiting in the Brothers’ deck is the Gate Guardian, lord of the underworld and one of the most powerful monsters of all.
