balanced and fun free-to-play game – KINGDOM HEARTS Uχ Dark Road Review

Like all free-to-play games, KHuX routinely reminds you of the numerous opportunities to drop real cash for in-game items and progress but unlike other games *cough*Tapped Out*cough*, the game feels well balanced and is very enjoyable without paying anything (I have yet to make any in-game purchases). While the jewels currency still feels worthless and the exchange rate to real world money looks very unappealing, I have still be playing the game since shortly after launch and enjoying it's time killing ability. The story is really the only reason for the 4 star rating. It is spread very thin over many missions and very loosely tied to the original console games. I would go so far as to say it actualy breaks the cannon as you meet so many characters who we see again in the original games and who don't like like they have seen keyblade weilders before. It's a nitpick for sure but in a game like this trying to sell itself on the story connections to the franchise, it's glaring.
