Japanese & American Real-world Adaptations
The real-world adaptation of Dungeon Dice Monsters was initially released as a collectible dice game in Japan, almost exclusively using the same rules from the TV Show and video game for play. Seven booster packs of the 20+ monsters were released for Japanese play, and 3 booster packs and a number of Toys R Us demo monsters were released for the English game.
Dungeon Dice monsters was converted in early 2002 as Yu-Gi-Oh!: Dungeondice Monsters, with 137 figures and cards scheduled for release. However, it never really caught on and was cancelled within a few months. The rules are slightly different, and many of the monsters from the card game were used to expand on the barely touched game. The game was produced by Mattel. There was also a video game based on the 'Dungeon Dice Monsters' series which was released on the Game Boy Advance video game system on Feb 12, 2003.

“Let those flatter, who fear: it is not an American art. To give praise where it is not due, might be well from the venal, but would ill beseem those who are asserting the rights of human nature.”
