A popular Japanese trading card game and media franchise featuring strategic dueling with monster, spell, and trap cards. Known for its complex rules and competitive tournament scene.
From Japanese 'Yū-Gi-Ō' meaning 'King of Games'. Created by Kazuki Takahashi as a manga in 1996, combining 'yū' (game), 'gi' (play/technique), and 'ō' (king/champion).
Yu-Gi-Oh! has sold over 25 billion cards worldwide, making it one of the most successful trading card games ever created. What started as a manga about various games evolved into a card game phenomenon that rivals chess in strategic complexity.
