In a fit of nostalgia I bought Yugioh: Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution. I watched the original show as a kid and played the game at recess, but never went any further than that. The game was on sale for a couple bucks on steam.

I gotta say, this is a great amount of content for the price (again, I bought it for like 5 bucks). You can play through the show's storyline (every season) with all of their dumb little decks, and after every duel, you unlock a "reverse duel" where you can do the same fight but from the antagonist's perspective. If you complete all of the duels involving a particular character, you unlock their "challenge duel" where they use a themed meta deck with actual combos and interesting win conditions. Because this game has every season of the TV show, there's at least a hundred different characters you can fight like this. Every time you win a duel you get some of your opponent's cards and money to make your own custom deck. The online is dead though, which is fine, I'm just playing this to relive my childhood watching the show.

I've been kinda hooked, even though I haven't been a Yugioh fan since 4th grade. I feel like a kid again. I just wish the Pokemon TCG or Magic: the Gathering had a modern game with a story mode like this.
