KINGDOM HEARTS RE:CODED NINTENDO DS

Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded is a remake of Kingdom Hearts Coded that was released on mobile, only in Japan. The game is set after the events of Kingdom Hearts II, when Jiminy's Journal (where the events of Kingdom Hearts I & II are recorded) is plagued with bugs. In order to decode the information from the log and debug it, King Mickey, Donald, Goofy, and Jiminy Cricket scan it. With the help of a digital Sora, recreated from the Diary's code, they begin to explore the Diary's worlds to reveal what is missing.

Upgrading and acquiring abilities is done by installing chips and unlocking support abilities and command and accessory expansions in the stat matrix. The Matrix also includes cheat tuners which are used to alter gameplay elements such as game difficulty, item drop rates, and more.

Along with the usual Action RPG elements from the Kingdom Hearts series, the game includes gameplay elements from other genres. In some worlds or boss battles, the game mechanics change completely. Some are side-scrolling or third-person shooter levels, and even turn-based RPGs.

After reaching a certain point in the game, each world can be revisited to try and get higher scores, find new areas, and do side quests.
