Kingdom Hearts 1 was a game I expected to not click with as much being Disney related with Square Enix being involved in the mix. However, after having Sora in Smash for a year now, I was excited to try it and man this game was so good.

The story of the game itself was great with Sora, Donald and Goofy having to find the king, Riku and Kairi, while learning what the Heartless plan to do, and with the worlds being iconic Disney franchises too. The combat was fun to play with too recently being into action RPGs after all, while adding things like the summons as Disney characters, the customisable abilities Sora can learn, and the fact that any weapon can get the job done regardless of level.

However, there were some issues with the game. Despite this game being originally released in 2002 for the PS2, this game's camera controls were rather funky and had to fight it sometimes in battle. The AI is very dumb, especially with Donald, and the platforming is a little wonky. Other than that, I really liked this game and can't wait for the other games.

Also the post game content was glorious. The additional cups in Olympus Coliseum, one of which you fight goddamn Sephiroth! The unknown hooded figure that ties into KH2, the third game in the series...still cool tho.
