Kingdom Hearts
Disney meets Square in this inspired RPG.
Have you ever seen a Disney film? Have you ever played a Final Fantasy game? If you answer yes to any of these questions then I have just the game for you. I can’t understand what possessed Square, the makers of the final fantasy series, and Disney to create a game that contained characters from both of their fields. Whatever it was I think they have hit a real winner.

To be honest this game defies any kind of real explanation. You play Sora (voiced by none other than Halley Joel Osment) a young boy who lives on an island with some friends, Riku and Kairi. Sora has a real obsession with Kairi and Riku is the elder of the two lads and fancies the pants of Kairi, too! I then need to tell you that Sora has been having some pretty screwed up existential dreams recently where his gloriously animated body is falling through sky and water and all manner of crazy hallucinogenic stuff. He finally ends up on a stained glass window of Cinderella and you then have to choose your weapon (sword, shield or wand) and you are told of a group called the ‘heartless’. He tells his two friends, who then question what is beyond their island and if their existence is real. They decide to leave the island by building a boat but some nasty big shadow people come along and cause loads of agro. We then get a cut-scene of Donald going to visit King Mickey who has gone AWOL. The heartless have dropped you away from your friends in a new world and you meet up with Donald and Goofy who keep calling you the keyblade master. You then have to travel to lots of different worlds as the heartless are destroying them one by one. All the worlds happen to be related to Disney films. Phew… I think that is about the measure of it.
What you actually do is very broad as well. I chose the sword as my weapon and I am not sure how much that affects the story but you basically have to run around hammering the hell out of various huge monsters, which once defeated increases your power level. The monsters are generally themed to the world they inhabit; for example, in Agrabah they all have turbans. You then have smaller missions to do in each world and on-going missions that keep reappearing like finding all 99 Dalmatian puppies or fighting in the various tournaments at Hercules’ Coliseum! To travel from one world to the next is also a game within itself. You have a Gummiship which you can add many different parts to, such as armour, engines, weapons, cockpits and warp drives, and then fly it through space dodging through obstacles and shooting other ships until you make your way to the world you desire. What it has to do with the grand scheme of the game I’m unsure but it is a pleasant relief from the hacking and slashing.

When is k.h2 is released
ok...well the dark keyblade, if you mean OBLIVION which rocks, it is in Hollow Bastion in the area where you find out Ansem is in riku... jump up on the side of the room and follow the pipe thing all the way around, you'll see a treasure chest which it is in... then ursula, find the dolphin in of the big areas, select hop on, it may take many tries, but it will take you upstream to the sunken ship, from there you fight the shark, and I think you can figure out the rest... if not tell me
Do have any hints or tips?

Kingdom hearts is Awesome!!! I just got it for my birthday!
I love Kingdom Hearts! If you like Final Fantasy,or Disney you WILL like this game. I also think you'll like the begining song "Simple and Clean". You can find the words in the packet that comes in the game box. As I said before"I LOVE KINGDOM HEARTS!"
This game is bad. I'm still shocked to see how people praise this insult of a game. The story is definetly the best part of this game - Final Fantasy meets Disney. It actually works surprisingly well and the story will keep you interested throughout. Sound is also very good, specially the Music and voice-overs. Graphics are above-average - not the best out there, but still worth mentioning. Unfortunately, that's where the dream ends. Once you start PLAYING the game, you'll realize the gameplay is awful - a button-mashing experience from start to finish. The Platform sequences are horrible because the character has trouble jumping. It feels like a fat elephant. The AI is almost non-existant, and the camera... oh, the camera! Don't even get me started on that one... let me just say I had a better time with Blinx - yes, the camera is THAT bad.
Too bad this game will sell on hype alone. "Final Fantasy meets Disney" and the beautiful graphics will sway you to buy it, but under the pretty shell this is one of the most disappointing games of the year.
If you value your money and if you have any hint of intelligence, you'll steer away from Kingdom Hearts. Maybe next time they'll do it right.
Kingdom Hearts Has To Be The Best GAme Yet! The Graphics Are Great and Besides The Whole Setting Is Just Perfect. This Is One Game You Cannot Get Tired Of! Except One Thing..... I Wanna Play As Pluto !
You meet Riku so many times in thisgame the fist time is Destiny Islands where you and 5 other friends live. But the second time is in Travese Town when you get the mysterious KEYBLADE. In Traverse Town te KEYBLADE dosen't go to Riku. In Aragaba whn Riku kidnappes Jamine The Keyblade doen't chose him. At Monstro The Whale When Riku runs away with Pinchio The Keyblde dosen't go to him. In Neverland the Keyblade dosen't go to Riku. But now when you get to Malefiecent's Castle Hollow Bastions wher you were born the keyblade just happens to go Riku.
no!
Of course he's the Chosen One! It said so in the Journal if you actually looked! And to all you people who think KH sucks then YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING! And, yes, there will be a KH2. If any of you pathetic freaks got to the end then you'd see the trailer to the next game.
when will kingdome hearts 2 come out
riku is the best looking guy in the world!
My friend says that at the end Ansem takes Riku into the doors forever is that true?<p>
Actally ansem is destroyed forever but the darkness in him was not and his darkness binds Riku to the door.
Can anyone tell me when you get the secret ending who the guy is swinging the two keyblades is?
hardest boss Sephorath
i love kingdom hearts i screamed when i got it for christmas
Hey Zai! i agree kingdom hearts is the BEST! well so far any way! i got stuck at the part where Sora goes out to save the raft in the storm and all the heartless come. What do i do???? Please help me.
sora90 you sound like you know this game back to front-please help me!!! i am mega stuck on the bit where Sora goes out i the storm and all the heartless come-i just can't beat them-what do i do????
Look, you go to the secret place where the drawings are on the walls. Give it a rest!!! I admit, kingdom hearts is an amazing game, but it was nt very challenging, and I also thought there would be loads of secrets that youd be surprised to find, but there was just this secret ending after collecting everything.....I liked zelda 64, for those reasons.
One thing I did love clouds cape! it is Sooooo fantasic! Im going to make my own.
oh wait, before you go to the secret place you have to go to the little island where you used to fight riku, there you see him and then a whole whopping cinematic scene blows over and you get the keyblade.....THEN go to the secret place.........
the kingdom hearts game wont let me go on to agraba and i've beaten the phil's cup. so what do you yhink is wrong.
the game is difficult,but i think it is the one for me and my friend drew james
thankyou for bringing out this game
i HAVE K.H and LOVE IT! It has all the cool levels and is hard but not that hard.I want to know if there is gonna be a KH 2 so I can play that! KINGDOM HEARTS RULZ!!!
i think dis game is gr8. it is soooooo cool + i play on it everyday.sum1 plz reply 2 me or i will get sad luv lucy
i think that kingdom of hearts is so boring.i dont like it and i dont play on it and i'll never will so somebody answer me plz and tell me how u like it.lv mirander
hey every knew info on K.H.2 it should be due some time in august 2004 after its due date the prequel to K.H. will be soon availible so just a while more and you'll have you K.H. cravings fufilled
I can honestly say this is my absolute favorite game EVER! nothing can compare, nothing is so rewarding as completely, and i mean completely, beating this game. i've mastered it! WEE!!! its the greatest game to come around since... ever!
Oh hi! No problem, but this other games i told you about are only avaiable for the computer exept baldurs gate: dark alliance, but this baldurs gate game (there are 5 of them) is not as good as the other 4. if you want to get this games, they are very old but they are the origins for most of other rpg-games. i don´t think that you will like them, because they´re some kind of different than KH (more brutal, a complicated and fantastic story, dufficult battle system...) i just told you about them because they are my favourite games after final fantasy... (i´m a total ff-freak...) but maybe you will really like them like i do...
Because they had to get differant names untill they are able to return back to their own worlds. It says it in the game.
does n e body know n e thing bout kingdom hearts 2? if so, can u tell me?
To make a long story short, this game sucks......
I love Kingdom Hearts, but I stink wayyyyyy bad. I'm at Atlantis. Can'ya people give meh tips? All appreciated! Thanks.

WOW KINGDOMHEARTS 2 look at ansem in riku's body just that his eyes of darkness have been reaveled by light so he has to were a blindfold to make sure he won't be sesible to the lightwhen he takes the blindfold off fire works come out!
In Hollow Bastion after replacing the going through the librbary and moving gates, I come back out to the Gates Entrance then touch the red crystal that triggers the platform to move overhead- How do I reach the platform that is moving over me? I can't get up there to get to the chests and the other side of the building.
I just beat kingdom hearts! But i didn't get the secret ending...well i know how but it's too hard to get it...but i love this game!!! i love riku!! I love ansem!! I heard that riku is going to be the guy with two keyblades wow!! I love riku so much!!! well anyway one of the unknowns is defintly riku older...yay i love riku
Hi!!
I really love Kingdom Hearts so I'm basing one of my biggest projects on it. the only problem is I can't find a decent picture of Ansem. I would draw him but he would turn an incrediably cool/evil-looking- person to a stick figure. Do you know where I might be able to find a picture?
I have completed the game about 3 times and I'm still not bored but I want to know how to get mystery goo
YO! how do you beat ansem??? help needed bad!
Does anyone happen to have or know where to get a good Ansem picture?
Go to Kingdom Hearts Planet. I forgot the url so do a search. They actually have an ok full-body picture somewhere on the page
sora90 you sound like you know this game back to front-please help me!!! i am mega stuck on the bit where Sora goes out i the storm and all the heartless come-i just can't beat them-what do i do????<p>
Leanne all you do is go towards the door where the secret area is and then go cross the bridge above the seaside shack and you see riku and you get the keyblade then go back to the door and you fight the boss.
Hey everyone I heard alot about Kingdom hearts,yes it's a great game and yes there is a second Kingdom hearts coming out but there is also a 3rd too. but there is another rumor that a movie of kingdom hearts is coming too. And I know a little more about kingdom hearts 2. The guy in the black hood that is asking for Sora is Riku. And Riku might be the main character this time.He is probaly the one with the two keyblades. One of the unknowns could be Ansem and the others could be an older version of Sora and Riku. The girl on the beach is Kairi is anyone wants to know. Because remember, Kairi was waiting for Sora to return? Well she probaly never left that spot and still waits for Sora. And Sora has to find the door of light. I think there are two rikus and two soras. they are the heartless rikus and soras. And it's true that Sinten is the new heartless ruler or controler whaterver. but that's not all playstation 3 is coming in 2005. And i think kingdom hearts 2 is coming in 2006. Or probably in 2004 i don't know. but Kingdom hearts is the greatest game i ever played. and i mastered it in three days.
Also if you look close enough youll fin that the figure has reddish hair.
its actually a good idea paul, i mean think about it none of us know more than anyone else, so you never know....
Riku is really hot is he going to be in another version of kh
Hello, i just want t know where u got ur info, because i heard a different story. it's all really confusing realli, i heard that the guy on the top of the building is riku's body free from ansem and flooded with light. the guy with the two keyblades is really riku from another form, according to one of the ansem's reports there are four worlds, anywa, it is all really confusing, i g2g, pleaze, pleaze, PLEAZE HELP ME!!

Just to let the creaters know,I think Riku is MAD HOT!!! Anyway This is the Best game of all time. I beat it a million times and I even got the secret ending,but I still can't get enough. It's the greatest of all time. I can't wait for part 2.....but I'm going to be 14 in two years. So the creators best to hurry up wit' making part 2. I'll be waiting....hee hee.
Sincerely,
one of the biggest fans
I tried to look and got nothing. They said they weren't goin' to give any info.
the guy is sora swinging his keys
riku is on the building
???? about the girl on the beach right now
this game is hard at times.but yet again it's not.I think that the beginning of the game needs a little work.
when you go out to the storm all you do is first head to the secrete place then you go over to the little piece of land where riku was when the option to fight him was availible you should see riku there and then theres a cut scene its that simple any othere questons just ask
hey to all you kingdom hearts fans iv'e got some what of some info on the sequels to K.H. since i work for square i have leads to most of the ideas, well there will be a sequel and there will be more than just one more in fact we have planned to take it to the limit and make it go to i think it was like part 4!!! bu theres more we are infact making a prequel to the first K.H. game it will tell the story of how sora and kari AND riku came to be on the island also it will go deeper in to the ansem reports and show him while he was working on them and it will tak about king micky and his kingdom and just other stuff like that but yeah K.H. 2 lost hearts should be out some time around august of 2004 but if there are any questions just ask because i would know now wouldn't i since i worked on the project
--peace
hey beating ansem isn't realy a power thing the first time although it helps its just a matter of timeing and knowing when to go for him and when not to but the only attack the first time you fight him you have to look out for is the binding (when ansem's little ghost guy dissaperes he jumps for you :bind) but if you aviod that you should beat him in no time
Okay, many of the people who post here are total morons. But for you few who have actually mastered the FF series, Kingdom Hearts provides an opportunity to see a few of the newer FF characters. (and some older ones on the wall of the secret spot ^_^). The game is too easy though, i got to lvl 99 in my first month and i kicked Sephiroths butt after my 3rd try.. at lvl 75. God sin harvest is annoying.
The camera angles were dissapointing and the combat system left something to be desired... but aside from those flaws its a good game, although not for everyone.
I think that they will make a 2 one butt I need help I'm on the 1 world can any body heip me and the kid who did not like it 2 bad
i was wondering when the second Kingdom Hearts is due out. i am so mad that at the end they didnt tell u if sora gets back to kairi, if riku gets out, and where king mickey is. oh, and can u ppl tell me since king mickey was behind the dorr with riku, is he trapped there?
hey. i am soo poed that i didnt finish the hades cup. i missed out on so much. but, at the end of the game, you cant save, so maybe ill go back and do that. um, and do u know when KH2 is due out? im dying to know!!
I use the correct magic on the idiot white mushrooms three times but i still don't get a mystery goo. why?
You have to get all the dalmations,finish all the hercules cups and also seal all the keyholes
The most powerful weapon Sora can obtain in Kingdom Hearts is Ultima Weapon. It can be made at the Moogles' Synth Shop in Traverse Town, and shows up on the list only when all the other items on the Synth Shop list have been made at least once. Once it becomes available, these are the items you'll need and which creature drops them:
* 5 Lucid Gems — Wight Knight (Halloween Town)
* 5 Power Gems — Pirate and Pirate Ship (Never Land)
* 5 Thunder Gems — Aquatank and Screwdriver (Atlantica)
* 3 Mystery Goos — White Mushroom, Black Fungus and Rare Truffle (various locations)
* 3 Gales — Angel Star and Invisible (End of the World)
justin is actually Tan.Oh and if you need any help just ask
Of course he's the Chosen One! It said so in the Journal if you actually looked! And to all you people who think KH sucks then YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING! And, yes, there will be a KH2. If any of you pathetic freaks got to the end then you'd see the trailer to the next game./i
im sry, but I beat the game, and watched all of the end... now im kinda confused, where exactly was the trailer for kh2 because I really wanna see it.
stephanie,
you think its a bad thing that ur gonna be 14 in 2 years and still enjoy playing Kingdom Hearts? I am gonna be 15 in 16 days and I still think this game absolutley rocks! :) and could you tell me how to get the alternate ending?
Are there more hidden bosses, i have only beaten 4 (polaros, sephiroth, kurt zisa, phantom) Is Riku Ansem or something like that because after the ending movie there was a secret ending where a grown - up Riku fought against shadows or something like that... When will Kingdom Hearts 2 come out???
Hi! You have to do 3 things to get the alternate ending! First of all you have to fill up every key-hole in every world you can. 2. You have to win the Hades - Cup in Olymp. 3. You have to rescue all 99 puppies. I´m sorry if the words are not the same but I´m playing the german version...
I´m 99% sure that it´s Kairi when she´s grown - up!
The girl is Kairi! I´m 99% sure of it.
Hey! Maybe you´re right... There are still many players who think that they are the best players in the world because they have beaten Sephiroth and they are really making things worse... I totally agree with you but I´ve also beaten Sephiroth and my Sora and my two companions are on level 100 but I don´t think that I´m the best player in the world but I know a lot about Kingdom Hearts...
I did those 3 things... I have all 99 puppies, I beat the hades cup, and sealed every key-hole... I think... there isnt one in Monstro is there? other than that I have every thing done, yet it didnt show me the alternate ending....hmmmm
I think what im missing is Ultima weapon.... do you have to have that?
did any of you guys wait through the credits and see the...uh... I think its a preview for the next game? holy cow it is sooo cool! this guy, who has to be riku grown up, because it also shows kairi grown-up on the island... but whats confusing is I think Sora might be the one that is missing this time. it asks you where sora is, and reminds you that you are the one that will open the door to the light, so the next game must be about finding micky and the door to the light... I cant wait!!!
Just tell me what is the problem?
Oh yes... I have the Ultima Weapon for Sora. I don´t know if you need the Ultima Weapon for the alternate ending but I have it and I´ve seen the alternate ending... Maybe you also need the secret weapons for Donald and Goofy. I don´t knwo a lot more but I have them all... Maybe you must beat all hidden bosses or gain 100% of the game... I´m not sure because I have done all this things and the alternate ending appeard! And one thing: I´m pretty sure that this ending where you see Riku fighting many heartless, the preview for KH2 is the "alternate" ending...
