This is your world; a shattered place lost in time after a cataclysm that wiped out all traces of the duels. Click on the blinking Chapter Node to start your adventure. With Yugi's help, you have started training for the BAM tournament. The person behind it is known as the "Organizer", whose identity remains shrouded in mystery. What's even more mysterious is that you were sent you a personal invitation, even though you had no prior knowledge of BAM! Anyways, you're not quite ready to duel on your own - you still need to learn about Spells! You're making amazing progress, and you definitely show serious potential... Is it just a coincidence that the Organizer sent you a personal invitation to the BAM tournament? After all, some legendary duelists have also started showing up... You're up against some serious competition! It's time to go out there and test your skills - who knows who you'll meet? Checking out a B!-T resulted in a brush with B!-Sec. The Hologuard made a big deal out of it. All this is pretty mysterious: you don't know anyone involved in the organization of the BAM Tournament, yet you get a personal invitation but are not allowed to go anywhere near the Training Facility... You head back to Yugi's studio: maybe he can help you make sense of it all? The Ghouls kept ambushing you and they're clearly more interested in you than in your cards. Why? Plus, you received a personal invitation from the Organizer of the BAM tournament, even though you had no prior knowledge of BAM or its rules... Who is the leader of the Ghouls? Is he - or she - connected to the Organizer? The only way to find out is to keep moving forward! Your encounter with the leader of the Ghouls confirmed that there is something in you that makes your BAM potential highly valuable. No doubt that Yugi, Yusei and Akiza have felt that and want to help you however they can. But the leader of the Ghouls - whoever he may be - has other intentions... it may not be too late to catch up with him to find out! Why did your Friends turned against you? There was no reason with them, as though they were brainwashed? Could the leader of the Ghouls be behind this? You lost track of him towards the end of the level, then... you couldn't remember what happened. Yugi found you unconscious on the other side of town. How did you end up there? But more urgent matters surfaced when Yugi learned of the disappearance of his friend Joey. Just as you set out to look for him, Seto showed up and requested to see how your skills had improved. You showed him, alright. As for Joey's wherabouts, X marks the spot: it seems he's been kidnapped and is held captive in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of town. With Yugi's help, you disabled all the B!-Ts that locked the entrance to the factory. Seeing how many Ghouls you had to defeat to get inside, Joey must be close... You rescued Joey but had to duel with him to bring him back. But no sooner had he recovered that Marik, the leader of the Ghouls, showed up and challenged you! You managed to beat him, but only to have B!-Sec show up and arrest Yugi. You had barely escaped with Joey and made it back to the training studio when you had a chance encounter with Yusei: only to learn that it was now Akiza who was missing! You accepted Yusei's request and the both of you split to look for her... Thankfully, the figure that had been following you didn't mean any harm. It was Crow, Yusei's friend: a skilled duelist and a worthy ally. But first you had to prove your worth through a few duels against him! Crow and you regrouped with Yusei. Together, you were able to hack your way into the hideout of yet another mysterious stranger. Will you find Akiza and learn the identity of her kidnapper? You rescued Akiza, but Devack got the best of Yusei and Crow before they could do anything. It was up to you to defeat him and rescue Akiza. As you ran away towards the exit, more of your brainwashed friends tried to prevent you from escaping. Would they ever snap out of it? As you got closer to the exit, a feeling of dread came over you... Hadn't it been for your B!-T hacking skills, you would all have been dead, because the building would have self-destructed. However, you still had to plow through hordes of Hologuards before you could get out... and fight a new powerful duelist! Luckily, Yusei and Crow handled it from there, so that you could get Akiza to safety. Things were getting worse by the minute: you were now officially a fugitive! As expected, everyone turned against you... When will you get some rest? Throughout your struggles against Devack, you never stopped thinking about Yugi and how to rescue him. Joey's plan to pose as a B!-Sec officer bringing you, the fugitive, into custody was simple yet perfect... except for one small detail: how would he be able to get his hands on a B!-Sec uniform? Who would have thought Seto would be the one helping you make it come true? All you needed to do was quench his thirst for duels... Joey's plan worked out alright. You managed to get deep inside B!-Sec headquarters, and judging by the number of B!-Ts you had to hack, Yugi was definitely held prisoner nearby... And indeed he was! Before leaving B!-Sec, Yugi wanted to investigate the corrupted Hologuards. It turned out that someone had hacked their source files and tampered with the code. That someone was Marik, who showed up with a few corrupted B!-Sec Hologuards just as you were about to clean the corrupt data. Too bad a big blast knocked Yugi and Joey out... A mysterious figure appeared through the hole created by the blast: Roman Goodwin! So Roman was behind the brainwashing of your friends! Thankfully, Yusei, Akiza and Crow showed up just in time to handle the extra opponents. With only Roman standing between you and freedom, you took a few steps towards him... only to be stopped in your tracks by... Akiza? You managed to make Akiza snap out of it after a few duels, only to have to go through Devack again. Roman used the opportunity to flee. Realizing he was losing, Devack tried to flee as well, but you caught up with him! After going through the remnants of the corrupted B!-Sec Hologuards, you confronted Devack in an ultimate duel and defeated him... but not before he could prick you with a neuro-needle! Why did you turn against your friends? What is it with you? You friends, now free from the brainwashing, even tried to stop you, to no avail. Devack had stunned you before fleeing, a parting gift of sorts that brainwashed you! But your friends brought you back at the peril of their lives. Is it all over, now? On the eve of the BAM! tournament, you were reflecting with Yugi on what had happened when Marik tried one last time to get you. You successfully managed to defeat him and his Ghouls - for now, you guess. But one question remained unanswered: why was everyone trying to get you? What's so special about you that Marik, Devack and Roman would go to such great lengths to get you? Maybe you're not who you think you are?
