Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

released on Mar 29, 2012

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance is the seventh game in the Kingdom Hearts series. It was originally developed for the Nintendo 3DS hand-held system. It is a direct sequel to Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts coded, and the epilogue of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Utilizing the 3DS's high-spec graphics processing, the game's graphics are near on-par with those of the PS2 titles, and make use of the system's 3D technology to add immersion when falling from high places and flying far distances. The 3D effect is used more for "going into the screen" rather than things popping out.

Here the story started to be a shit. Gameplay is good but not enough. Very disappointing

There is no good Kingdom Hearts game that uses the command deck.

This was my first Kingdom Hearts game, years and years ago when they first announced the third one, which turned me onto the series in the first place. The Pixar characters were enough to get my attention, and the only modern console I had was the 3DS, so it all seemed pretty natural to pick it up. I couldn't have known 😅

The problems with this game's story are ones that the whole series suffers from, just too much required reading to have any inkling as to what's going on.

Fortunately, YEARS and YEARS later after on-and-off exposure to the story, with practice playing other games, seeing the tie-in movies and all that jazz, it's a rewarding enough experience.

I really like the dream guys, I like that it's a little less consequential, I like Sora's outfit, I like the story, and I love the gameplay, but it's very very very hard. I think I'm pretty good at video games but this one can get grindy and the bosses are completely nuts, often in unfair ways.

Regardless, yeah, I think I'd recommend dream drop distance, but specifically to people who have played other games in the series, and do yourselves a favour and play the remastered version on something other than a 3DS.

Played this game on 3ds emulator but camera kept crashing

My main mistake with this was playing on hard, thinking that it wouldn't be super hard. The difficulty is so vastly different and random from game to game, that I was not prepared for what I got, and ultimately I quit.
