From Janime
Duel Monsters (デュエル モンスターズ
Dyueru Monsutāzu) is a collectible card game produced by
Industrial Illusions. In the manga the game is referred to as
Magic and Wizards. Every Yu-Gi-Oh! anime refers to it as 'Duel Monsters'. Starting off in the early
manga
as merely a card game that is popular in America, Duel Monsters has
gradually increased in importance, starting with the revelation that its
creator
Pegasus J. Crawford based the game off relics found in his travels through Egypt, to massive tournaments such as
Duelist Kingdom and
Battle City using state-of-the-art
Kaiba Corporation holographic technology - and even further, in filler arcs such as
Doma and spin-off series such as
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters GX, entire
Duel Monsters Worlds
have been revealed in other dimensions. Despite these later steps away
from the game's origins, Duel Monsters' Ancient Egyptian roots still
define it.
