Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

This KH game is different that the others, but still a really enjoyable game. There are flashes from the first game in it that make it very enjoyable for Kingdom Hearts fans.



Playing it on the 3DS is the only way I could do it. I needed the analog stick like with Sony platforms.

Pros
-talking to nearby people gives you a lot of free items
-can access old missions
-clear missions to follow -- can't get stuck on what to do
-interesting plot
-for KH fans, there are flashes from the original KH, so it's very enjoyable for us fanatics
-easy to synthesize and equip new gear
-every mission has treasure chests
-can triple magic level, magic use, and level panels

Cons
-very controlled tasks -- can't freely travel to a world outside of a mission, even if it is a repeated mission
-no mini-games, just "Challenges" (no finding the dalmatians or anything)
-not as many worlds as the original games
-equipping gear and leveling up takes up limited "Panel" spaces. For example, if you level up, you need to use one of your (say 20) available panels to actually equip your increased level. The same thing goes for casts of magic, usable items, etc. You do get more panels as the game progresses.
-Limited backpack space and some treasure chests are impossible to reach

Overall, the game is quite enjoyable, but unless you are a big Kingdom Hearts fan and want to play all of the games and get all of the plot of the series, it isn't a game you need to play. If you would like to try Kingdom Hearts, definitely play KH, then KH2.
