Based on the cards which appeared on the ''[[Duel Masters (anime)|Duel Masters]]'' anime, [[Recursive Adaptation|which in turn were based on]] the ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'' cards that appeared on the manga, the [['''''Duel Masters]] TCG''''' proved popular enough on its own to compete with ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! (Tabletop Game)|Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' and ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'' as one of the most -played TCG[[Trading Card Game]]s.
 
Gameplay-wise is quite similar to it'sits [[Spiritual Successor|Spiritual Ancestor]] ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'', having 5 civilizations (fire, water, light, darkness and nature) with cards that should be played by paying "mana" from your "mana pool". One big difference from Magic is that PRACTICALLY''practically EVERYevery CARDcard'' can be used as "mana" (not only "terrains"), giving the game more flexibility against "dead draws" than almost any other card game. To win the game one must successfully attack his opponent directly, for which one must first destroy the "shields" (cards that are randomblyrandomly set at the begging of the match as defense) and any other defense the opponent decides to play, while protecting one-selfoneself.
 
It spawned a few games for the GBA and for the [[PlayStation 2]].
