However, there is no automatic select in option screen or indications on screen. So if purchased without a book, you will never know this except by accident. Cards that cannot be used at that time are darkened (once a monster has attacked, its card darkens.) Pressing start will end the player's turn. Cards can be played in attack or defense mode, face-up or face-down. Hence, a monster can be played in face-down attack mode. However, the card flips over after it attacks.
