Kingdom Hearts Official Strategy Guide

I love the game, and l love it even more with this book! EXcelent! I mean, you don't ever get frustrated and this is an easy game to get frustrated in! Doesn't make the game any less fun, but more since you don't get frustrated. Grab the game and the guide and have a blast!

After purchasing and playing KINGDOM HEARTS, I got addicted. However, after advancing rather quickly in the game, I got stuck between Monstro and Atlantica. I scoured the Internet, but it soon became a hassle to visit the net anytime that I reached a point I couldn't get past. So, I broke down and purchased the Official Strategy Guide. I'm really glad that I did. This is an awesome strategy guide! Without it, I would not have beaten Kingdom Hearts. The information contained within has also helped me beat 2 out of the 4 super bosses (I have yet to beat The Phantom and Sephiloth). Advanced gamers may not find this book useful, but just about everyone else who plays Kingdom Hearts will.

This is just about the best strategy guide I've ever seen. It has:1. Clear, well-organized lists of all the items, weapons and spells in the game, accompanied by short descriptions that provide useful information.2. Excellent character profiles that enable you to customize your party to the fullest.3. A pitch-perfect beastiary with, from what I've seen, accurate statistics for every beast in the game, including bosses.4. A clearly written walkthrough. While some of the hints and descriptions are a little lacking in detail, this is a very large game, and providing step-by-step illustrations could have proved even more confusing or just ruined the fun of playing the game through.5. Ideal boss fight strategies, providing more information about the boss than about how you should deal with it, allowing the player to adjust their style of play to each new bad guy while not wasting time.6. The simply cool addition of a map and stickers to keep track of your progress with puppies and Trinity Marks. At first I though this was cheesy, but it's a great way to track your progress.The last bit is the most important though: this is a guide through the game, not a step-by-step, this is how you beat the game, kids, completely outlined with no room for interpretation rulebook, giving you the freedom to enjoy the game at your own pace and in your own style.

This guide is filled with all the things a good strategy guide must have: clear maps, practical strategies, helpful tips and comprehensive item/accessory listings. You get the complete bestiary, complete with weaknesses, locations and pictures. This is particularly helpful if you need particular items from particular enemies for item synthesis (all of which, both enemies and their respective items, are meticulously detailed in this guide in a clear layout). You get walkthroughs of every world, every step of the way -- and if you've played this game, with the expansive worlds it features, you know this is absolutely necessary. It would have taken me at least three times as long to navigate through Atlantica (the Little Mermaid stage) without this guide, but thanks to its clear delivery and direction, I whizzed through it. You get strategies for all bosses and hidden bosses that actually work -- including warnings of special attacks and effects (i.e. - the tips for the Ice Titan keep you from getting frozen to death by his giant freezing attacks). In short, this guide does exactly what a good strategy guide is supposed to do -- it helps in every area of the game from walkthroughs to navigational difficulties, and reveals all hidden possbilities. If you want to master this game, or if you're having the slightest trouble getting through it, this guide will make sure you're an expert in no time.

This guide was awesome and of great help to me! You can't get any better than this right now. The BradyGAMES Signature series continues with Kingdom Hearts. This guide is jampacked with detail after detail, maps upon maps, and boss stategies upon boss strategies of help!However, there is at least ONE spoiler in the guide (the only spoiler actually) that you may want to wait and it just so happens to be in the last few pages (in other words the final boss), so take your time with this one and use as you go through the game and don't be like me and read the whole walkthrough before you even start!BUT the guide has so much to offer.
