The card battles are tedious and annoying. Some of the cards do not work like you think they will. Sometimes the story lags. But it is worth it for the bonus stuff and an introduction to chain of memories stuff. I should have played this first. Its mostly a pain because in the previous game, I relied heavily on constant physical attack and not very much magc. BTW, if you get this, do not sell off all of your 0 level cards like I did. They are useful later on and an extremely tedious pain to have to go back and try and accumulate some.

Just another great shopping experience. THe game arrived perfect condition, and on the time expected.speedy delivery!!

if youre a true fan of kingdom hearts you need to get this game. at first the gameplay can be a bit confusing since its different from the other kingdom hearts games, but throughout the game you get used to it. plus, by playing this game you can better understand the plot of kingdom hearts II. Sure you could always go online and try to get the story but its no fun that way.

This is the first Kingdom Hearts game I have ever played, and it was a great experience. I loved this game so much that I reached the maximum level (Level 99).

In this game you enter a castle where everything is controlled by cards. These cards have pictures of items, magic, and weapons on them. You can collect diffrent types of these item, magic, and weapon cards. You can even summon Disney characters, like Donald Duck, Goofy, and even cloud from Final Fantasy 7. Each card has a number from 0 to 9. Numbers 1- 9 change the strength of the cards and 0 should be used after an enemy uses a card. If your card is a lower number than the enemy's card, your card will be under powered by the enem's card. You can even chain together cards into combos. For example, if you put 3 thunder magic cards together, you get a move called thunderaga which damages all the enemies in the battle field. So this game has a lot of strategy.

Kingdom Hearts has a great story line and amazing graphics.

Graphics 5/5 *****
Story 5/5 *****
Battle System 5/5 *****
Strategy 5/5 *****
Replay 3/5 ***
Length 4/5 ****

The levels are very diverse and all have to do with a diffrent Disney movie.

In conclusion, I am sure you will like Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, and will find it an enjoyable experience.

If you are a fan of Kingdom Hearts, this game is great for you. However, the fighting system is not as good as Kingdom Hearts I and II and probably becomes boring after playing for hours.
