KINGDOM HEARTS.
This series has been with my since my early teenage years and it definitely left it's mark. Starting with the very first game for the Playstation 2, Kingdom Hearts was everything you'd want in a game; an amazing story, a memorable set of main characters, Disney characters, not-so-dull gameplay, and so much more. As per publisher Square Enix's clear set of standards, the graphics were beautiful, especially during the time of the first game's release in 2002 (14 long years ago)! As of late, most of us Kingdom Hearts fans have been anticipating the release of Kingdom Hearts III. Unfortunately, the wait continues.
In the mean time, Square Enix has released a mobile Kingdom Hearts game called Unchained χ. Unchained χ is a re-release of the original Kingdom Hearts χ that was released exclusively in Japan for web browsers. Released on April 7, 2016 (about a week ago now) Unchained χ is made for mobile devices, both Android and iOS, so the ease of access is pretty great. Unfortunately my phone is lacking in memory space, so I downloaded KHuχ on Bluestacks on my laptop. It plays perfectly fine with a mouse, so there aren't any problems there.
My player card. Such a noob. You can connect your game through Facebook to sync your data and play with friends who also play the game (through a party system). You can change everything about your avatar, including the face and the hair, whenever you choose to. You can also purchase new clothes and accessories for your avatar via the "Avatar Board" using avatar coins. Another thing is that when you start the game, you chose a "Union" to join. I suppose it's like a faction for you to join and there are five to choose from. I personally chose Vulpes. Keep in mind that you can only make a party with people who are in your faction!
The home screen. Don't mind my character doing some weird moves. You can run around the town and bump into fellow players.
Here's the pop-up menu with everything you need for your mobile gaming experience.
So many quests to do, so little time (just kidding) o_o!
In game. Basically a click and drag system. I like it though. You use upgradeable medals (bottom left) in order to do special attacks. Otherwise you just hit heartless with your basic attack. If you take a look at the big "7" next to my HP bar, that's your current overall charge for the special attacks. Each medal has a certain cost so if you use the Mickey medal (charge of 3), then your overall special gauge will drop from "7" to "4". Each quest has three objectives that you want to complete in order to get one, two, or three stars on the overall quest. Don't forget to pick up the sparkly items on the ground and open the chests!

So all in all, I'm pretty hyped about this game. I can't wait to see how the game progresses as I continue to play. If you're a KH fan or even just looking for something new to try out, give Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ a go!
