KH4Real, Feb 21 2013 01:13 PM

Indeed look at Star Galaxy Square begins to love browser games.

Youthful Z, Feb 21 2013 01:29 AM

why do people keep saying its for pc when it really is for web browsers? i just want to say with it being a browser game it will work on mac. i almost got confused with what you can play it on...

RoxSoxKH, Feb 20 2013 11:30 PM

Looks like a really awesome name,  wasted on a really pointless game.

J. Severe, Feb 20 2013 08:27 PM

Logo looks awesome. I love it. "Neat" to everything else.

Weiss, Feb 20 2013 08:24 PM

It means what it says. Self-explanetory.

Well, kh 1.5 is the next game since you asked what's next.

Nweintraub, Feb 20 2013 08:23 PM

It means what it says. Self-explanetory.

Weiss, Feb 20 2013 06:11 PM

Uuuoooogh...what next?

what is that supposed to mean?

Shana09, Feb 20 2013 06:03 PM

The first ever? Then what about...

  1. Kingdom Hearts Final Mix?
  2. Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories?
  3. Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix?
  4. Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix (+)?
  5. Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days?
  6. Kingdom Hearts Coded?
  7. Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep?
  8. Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded?
  9. Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix?
  10. Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance?

Did it occur to you that these were side games? Or have you forgotten about every single one of them?

 

A side game is when they create a game that is cannon and fits in the story but doesn't show the original main characters.

Bridge games is a plot device game that connects two major games.

Main games are...well main games.

Spin offs are games where they aren't cannon and they don't fit in the story line.

 

1) That's just a remake of the first KH1 game, not a side game nor spin off.

2) That's just a remake of CoM (ALSO A BRIDGE GAME), not a side game nor spin off.

3) That's just a remake of KH2, not a side game nor spin off.

4) That was just a deluxe set with KH2FM and Re:CoM, not a side game nor a spin off.

5) That was a side game, since it doesn't feature the main characters. But guess what? Many games have these, and these are essential to the plot line, so it's not a spin off.

6) It was a side game that features the data version of the main character, Sora. Not a spin off, plus it was for the mobile only for the people in Japan.

7) Tricky here. It's a main game like Nomura stated "Kingdom Hearts 0" but at the same time it can be a bridge game. It's mainly a main game though. Not a spin off or side game.

8) Remake of Coded for the other regions in the world, a side game but not a spin off.

9) A remake for BBS, not a side game nor spin off.

10) Bridge game between KH2 and KH3. 

 

 

I hope this clears things up.

1. same as kh1 with added content

2. Remake of com for ps2

3. same as kh2 with added content

4. that was a combo set of kh2fm and re: com

5. that was a main game in the series

6. main game in the series on japanese phones only

7. prequel game of the series

8. remake of coded so that more people could play it do to coded being only on jap phones

Not being a numbered title doesn't make it a side game.

Uuuoooogh...what next?
