Developed by Konami, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Duel Academy arrived on the Game Boy Advance in 2006 as a board, card or party game.

It landed about 5 years into the GBA's life. Other notable GBA releases from 2006 include Mother 3, Rhythm Tengoku and Drill Dozer. Among the 43 GBA board, card & party games in our database, it ranks #17 by legacy score.

It is part of the Yu-Gi-Oh! series; on the GBA you can also try Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards, Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel and Yu-Gi-Oh! The Eternal Duelist Soul. The series also appears on other systems with Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories (GBC) and Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour (DS). Konami also made Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Castlevania: Circle of the Moon and Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance for the GBA.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.
