Square Enixs mash-up of Disney and Final Fantasy has always been praised for its music, and Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory is a great way to relive the nostalgia. Check out our PlayStation 4 video game review!

 

 

The longer the The Lion King, and more is a delight. The game is a visual and musical treat and does a great job making the levels feel like Kingdom Hearts from top to bottom. With Melody of Memory trying to take on some qualities from the mainline Kingdom Hearts games, it can often suffer from what feels like unfair presses as inputs feel more like attacks than carefully timed presses. What it doesn’t have in precise rhythm perfection, it makes up for in Disney and Kingdom Hearts charm.

A Trip Through Disney History 1w1q13

Songs make or break rhythm games. Even when the mainline Kingdom Hearts games falter, one thing is for sure, the music is amazing. Whether you want the original songs from the games or a taste of the Disney classics it is all here. From big-time favorites Frozen’s Let It Go, to tracks from the most obscure Kingdom Hearts spinoff game. As great as the music is, if you are not already a fan of Disney or Square JRPGs, it will not do much for you. But, if you have played all of the games and love the tracks, the game is a fantastic trip down memory lane as you relive the series most emotional moments. Kairi is retelling the events of the games so far, and there is a bit more story to enjoy that takes place after Kingdom Hearts 3, but it is far from the focus. None of the stories are done justice in this way, and the best way to get into the series is still to play the games from the beginning. This is a game for Kingdom Hearts fans, and except for the classic Disney memories it offers very little for anyone else. But that is okay! Melody of Memory does not try to be anything more than it is. A solid rhythm-action game for fans of the series and a great way to relive some of the games’ greatest moments and songs.

Having trouble with the game's challenge? Just "Let It Go."Having trouble with the game's challenge? Just "Let It Go."
