ngl so fucking fun and love the worlds and music in this one
soriku time (cranks up the mlm to 11)
Incredibly Underrated. I would give whoever came up with flowmotion the most insane head.
For the life of me I could not get past Young Xehanort as Riku. Since I sold the OP Balloon attack I had no way of cheesing it so after about 10 hours of failing I just gave up and watched the ending on Youtube.
i love you meow wow
Pretty good KH game. Not my favorite combat system though.
I had and have never played a kingdom hearts game. Except for when I was 11 and this came out i wanted it more than anything. I played it and knew nothing about kingdom hearts at all lol.
Why couldn't Nomura put Symphony of Sorcery in KHII to replace Atlantica?
Everyone who hates the flowmotion system just hates fun
10/10 best KH game, has Quasimodo
This is a very good Kingdom Hearts game. I continue to be impressed by the handheld offerings of this franchise. I had no idea how powerful the 3DS was. The visuals are insane, comparable to KHII and better than BBS on the PSP.
Beyond the graphics the game also does a great job utilizing the 3DS features. You constantly use the stylus in fights and also to interact with adorable dream eaters. They seriously nailed the inputs for a device with no triggers and only one joystick.
Mechanically the game is also on point. You always feel in control and the leveling of abilities/stats through your dream eaters is super fun. It took me a minute to grasp all the interlocking components but once you do its a blast.
Story wise it is KH. So take it or leave it, you should know what you're getting into by now. I personally really liked the story and thought that it actually wasn't too confusing by the end. Playing this in preparation for KHIII makes me feel very confident in what is happening timeline wise and what to expect from that game.
My only complaint is the bosses, specifically the end game. Overall this is a relatively easy game. You go to worlds, beat guys up and maybe have to redo a boss once or twice. That is until the end game. The final segment had, and I'm not kidding, 6 boss battles in a row. They are all also exceptionally harder than any previous part of the game. It felt like I was playing a nice game and then right at the end they told me to get fucked noob. It was so challenging and completely unfun. I like a challenge but it coming out of no where and then just dragging on from boss to boss to boss was tedious.
Still glad I played it. I would highly recommend it to KH fans (obviously) but also to anyone who wants to see what the 3DS is really capable of.

Regrettably, Dream Drop Distance showcases the most interesting, heterogeneous level design in the entire series since KH1, only for it to be trivialized by a broken movement system. Enemies are mostly well designed, and the combat system from BBS returns, but without its best features and suffering from even worse balancing issues. The plot retains the series' imaginative charm and introduces interesting new concepts, but loses itself to convoluted, terribly bad writing.
Gameplay: Broken but good
Music: Really Good
Replayable? Nah
Streamed? No
Extra Notes? Was super fun to play through, but definitely shows how square tried the grid from World of Final Fantasy and failed with this one.

Every time I bring up the fact this is my second favourite Kingdom Hearts game, everyone (EVERYONE) goes wild at me. Like come on! Have you PLAYED this game? It owns! Some of you need to just hang out in that Fantasia world for two hours like I did
WAIT, this isn't a Pokemon game?

HATE HATE HATE HATE
Birth by Sleep was the beginning of the end for the KH franchise but this is the game where I really started to realize how out of touch it had become with what made the first few games great.
I have no idea how no one talks about how this is one of the best action RPGs Square Enix has ever put out.
i love you riku
i don’t think there’s a person alive that can accurately and concisely explain what happens in this game. probably the most convoluted mess in the franchise ever since recoded, and makes me baffled that this is the same series that made Kingdom Hearts 2.
i love this game! can be a controversial take but i stand by it. i feel the same way about re:coded as i do about this game: this is kind of a microcosm of everything i love about kingdom hearts, all in one package. this one just has the addition of dream eaters! who could dislike that?
as a non-numbered title, the combat is more about skills you use in a "deck," but this is (as with birth by sleep) its best iteration. i love the direction of riku's character in this title.

by far my favorite kh game, and it'll take a lot for another installment to dethrone it. i'll be the first to acknowledge that it strays from the mainline gameplay, and naturally a lot of players hated the drop system bc of that, but switching between sora and riku kept things feeling fresh to me. the virtual pet lover in me adored taking care of my dreameaters, and flowmotion felt so organic that i've missed it ever since.
prob the weakest over all but still fun
Very much a bridge game but I quite like it. Dream Eaters are a neat addition and it was fun to see Riku get to be the hero this time
you cannot convince me that riku is not in love with sora i'm sorry
meu fav
Se você conseguir tolerar um clusterfuck de história, problemas de balanceamento, e ideias subdesenvolvidas, perceberá que ainda assim, Dream Drop Distance faz mais certo do que errado.
kingdom hearts but in 3D. It has a cool opening in the 3ds version
flow is fun but the rest of the game is questionable
KH 3D is odd... And I can't tell if I mean that as a compliment or an insult. It has interesting ideas, to be sure, but it just kept striking me as an odd way to do things. The switch between leads is an interesting concept (hopefully they experimenting with what they did in BBS), but the payoff of it at the end hardly makes up for the time limits. That's right, you have a set amount of time to achieve your goal before you're emergency exited from the room to the other lead. It's frustrating, especially as someone who loves to explore and see what's going on in every corner of the room (like I always did in previous games). The game brings a very interesting story, and gives us a lot of hints towards the expected end of this saga... but I don't think I can recommend it to many.
