Go back in the Kingdom Hearts timeline. Taking place between the events of Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II is 358/2 Days. Which tells the story of protaganist's Roxas' time within Organization XIII a group of powerful Nobodies with some evil motives.

The graphics in this game are some of the best the Nintendo DS has ever seen. The cinematic cutscenes are beautiful and fun to watch. The gameplay graphics hardly ever experience any malfunctions of any sort. The graphics are marvalous for for 3-D DS game. This is in reality one of the most beautiful looking DS games out on the market.

The gameplay plays a lot like its predecessors(excluding Chain of Memories)but more or less it plays like th first one. There are many new types of Heartless and some old ones return for nostalgic fans. You see a lot of familiar faces ranging from Disney characters like King Mickey, Aladdin etc. to old friends like Riku. The bosses are bigger and better than ever before. Although I do miss the optional Sephiroth battle.

The multiplayer works like a charm and allows you to play as members of Organization XIII and other fun characters. You can play in a wide variety of multiplayer modes adding a lot of depth and replay value.

This game has a fantastic musical score and even has some remixes of old songs for people who have played the first games. However while the plot could have used a bit of sorting out the storyline is very deep and may have you weeping at the end of the game. Overall this is a must play game in my opinion and may quite possibly be the best game I have ever played on a Nintendo DS.
