==Tutorials==
===(Introduction)===
;Tilt (L-stick) a little to walk, or a lot to run.
;You can adjust the camera by tilting (R-stick). Press (R3) to reset the camera behind Sora.
;To jump, press {{button|c}}.


;When a green {{color|situation command|lime}} appears above the list of commands, that means you can press {{button|t}} to perform a special action.

===Combat Basics===
;Attacking
Press {{button|x}} while '''Attack''' is selected to attack with Sora's Keyblade. After landing an attack, you can keep pressing the button to chain together a '''combo'''. At the end of the combo, Sora will unleash a powerful '''combo finisher'''.

;Blocking and Evading
Press {{button|square}} without moving and Sora will '''block''' enemy attacks. If you are tilting (L-stick) when you press {{button|s}}, Sora will '''dodge''' in that direction instead of blocking.

;Locking On to Enemies
When you approach enemies, Sora will automatically target the closest enemy visible on the screen.

If you press {{button|r1}}, Sora will continue to stay locked on to that enemy. Once locked on, you can press {{button|r2}} to cycle through other targets.

===Casting Magic===
You will learn a variety of '''magic''' on your adventure. To cast it, use {{button|dpad}} to select '''Magic''' from the Command Menu, then choose from the list that appears and press {{button|x}}.

Magic depletes the '''MP Gauge'''. If the gauge runs out, it will automatically begin recharging over time.

You can speed up casting by assigning magic to '''shortcuts'' via the '''Customize''' menu.

===Switching Between Keyblades===
Sora can equip up to three Keyblades at the same time. To switch between them, move the cursor to '''Attack''' on the Command Menu and then user (d-pad left/right).

You can change Keyblades as the situation demands—even in the middle of a combo. Try it if you want to add an extra layer of technique to combat.

===Free Running===
While moving with (L-stick), you will automatically climb up small ledges and hop across narrow footholds. You don't need to make the jumps yourself.

Hit a dead end? Don't give up! You can '''run up walls''' that are '''faintly glowing'''. Take a good look around for places you can go!

===Save Points===
Those shining patches on the ground are called '''save points'''. You can refill your HP and other gauges by standing in the light.

Press {{button|t}} while standing at a save point to open a special menu you can use to save your progress, return to the Title Screen, and more.

===The Moogle Shop===
Branches of the '''Moogle Shop''' can be found from world to world, each selling valuable items you'll want to stack up on for your adventure.

The moogles are always getting new items in stock, so check back regularly. Do plenty of shopping, and you may receive a nice reward down the line.

===Flowmotion===
If you tilt (L-stick) in midair and press {{button|s}} to air slide toward walls and poles, you can trigger special moves known as '''flowmotion'''.

Press {{button|s}}} while in flowmotion to do a '''superslide''' that lets you quickly traverse great distances.

You can also press {{button|x}} while in flowmotion to perform powerful '''flowmotion attacks'''.

===Team Attacks===
During your travels, Sora's friends may call for a '''team attack'''. If you see a green '''team attack command''' appear above the Command Menu, press {{button|t}} to use it.

Some team attacks are useful for exploration, while others deal a punishing blow to enemies. Try them all and learn what they can do.

===Grand Magic===
As you use magic to inflict damage on enemies, a gauge above the Command Menu will fill and eventually produce a situation command for the '''same magic at a higher tier'''. This is called '''grand magic'''.

Grand magic does not require any MP to use.

===Formchanges===
As you deal damage to enemies with your Keyblade, a gauge above the Command Menu will fill up and eventually produce a green '''formchange command'''. Press {{button|t}} to use the command.

While formchanged, your combos will become more powerful and you will gain access to a devistating finishing move that can be activated by pressing {{button|t}}.

The formchange will end once you use the finishing move or after a set amount of time has passed.

===Attractions===
While engaging enemies, you may see a '''green circle''' appear around one of them. Attacking the marked enemies will cause an '''attraction command''' to appear. Press {{button|t}} to use the command.

Attractions are wild, eye-catching attacks that strike a wide radius. Which ones appear depends largely on where you're fighting.


===Synthesis===
At the Moogle Shop, don't forget to drop by the '''Workshop''', where you can use '''synthesis materials''' you collect in your travels to create new items.

;Collector's Goals
When you visit the Workshop, you will automatically leave any synthesis materials you've collected with the moogles. Based on what you've collected, you may be presented with rewards.

===The Keyblade Forge===
While you're at the Workshop, you can spend synthesis materials to '''power up your Keyblades''', increasing their Strength and Magic stats and unlocking '''new abilities'''.

If you're struggling with the enemies ahead, powering up your Keyblade could be a solution.

===Photo Missions===
As creative as the moogles are, sometimes they need a burst of inspiration to come up with new ideas.

Travel the worlds and bring back photos of the subjects the moogles tell you about, and you'll be rewarded with '''brand-new synthesis recipes'''.

===Kupo Coins===
If you are holding a '''kupo coin''' when Sora runs out of HP, the power of the moogles will rescue Sora from defeat.

You can buy one kupo coin at a time at the Moogle Shop. The coin will be spent automatically when it is needed.

===Shotlock===
'''Shotlock commands''' allow you to lock on to multiple foes (or the same foe multiple times) and unleash a whole volley of projectiles at once.

;Controls
Hold R1 and move (L-stick) or (R-stick) to lock on to the enemies of your choice, then press {{button|x}} to unleash the shotlock attack.

;Shotlock Types
Each Keyblade has unique shotlock commands. Some are projectiles, while others can be used to heal Sora. In some cases, locking on to the maximum number of targets will result in a more powerful attack.

;The Focus Gauge
Shotlock commands deplete the '''Focus Gauge'''. To refill the gauge, you'll need to visit a save point, collect Focus prizes, or use items.

===Rail Gauntlet===
While riding rail gauntlets, you'll need to defend yourself from foes.

Tilt (L-stick) to aim the reticle, then press R2 or {{button|x}} to fire orbs of light.

You can jump by pressing {{button|c}}.

===Airstepping===
While targeting with the shotlock reticle, you can also press {{button|s}} to instantly move to the last targeted location. This is called '''airstepping'''.

Airstepping doesn't deplete the Focus Gauge, so you can use it whenever you like.

===Keyblade Formchanges===
Some of the Keyblades that you obtain are capable of changing shape, or '''formchanging'''. Each Keyblade has its own unique formchanges.

While a Keyblade is formchanged, you will gain access to different combos and magic, as well as a devastating finishing move that can be activated by pressing {{button|t}}.

When you formchange the Keyblade, Sora's appearance may change accordingly, and you will gain access to a new set of specialized abilities.

Some formchanges are better for defense, others for casting magic. Experiment to see what works best for you.

===Formchanges: Counter Shield===
The '''Hero's Origin''' Keyblade can be formchanged into a defense-oriented weapon called the '''Counter Shield'''.

While formchanged, hold {{button|s}} to '''continuously guard''' for a set period of time. Blocking enemy attacks will '''charge''' your shield a maximum of two levels.

Pressing {{button|x}} while the shield is charged will activate a '''unique reprisal''' based on the level of charge.

===Voyage Across the Ocean Between===
;Controlling the Gummi Ship
Press (L1) or (R1) to '''start traveling forward'''. Press the button again to '''brake'''. You can do a '''U-turn''' by pressing (L3).

To travel more quickly, use a '''boost'''. Press {{button|c}} to expend one unit of your Boost Gauge and gain a burst of speed.

;Getting Help
To view this screen again or learn more about gummi travel, press (Options) to pause the game, then select '''Help'''.

;Attacking with the Gummi Ship
There are certain objects you can break open with attacks to clear a path or reveal items. Press {{button|x}} or (R2) to '''fire your weapons''' in the direction of the reticle.

;Avoiding Danger
Press {{button|c}} to '''roll''' in any direction. Use rolling to avoid collisions with asteroids or get out of the way of enemy attacks.


During your travels, you'll want to keep a close eye on these areas of your screen:

;(1) World Markers
These indicate new worlds you haven't visited yet. Fly toward the marker to reach the world.

;② HP
If your HP reaches zero, your ship will be destroyed.

;③ Boost Gauge
Using boosts will deplete this gauge one unit at a time. The gauge will recharge over time.

;④ Gummi Radar
Check the radar to keep tabs on nearby Heartless and treasures.

===Gummi Missions===
Complete '''gummi missions''' to obtain valuable items.

;Reviewing Your Missions
Press (Options) to pause the game, then select '''Information > Gummi Missions'''.

;Collecting Rewards
If you have completed a mission, you will receive rewards for it the next time you open the Gummi Missions screen.

;How to Get New Missions
New missions are added automatically as the game progresses. Check back after reaching new areas. You never know what might be waiting for you!

===Prizes===
You will sometimes '''obtain prizes or other rewards''' for defeating enemies and exploring the Ocean Between.

;(1) EXP Prizes
Collect these to level up your gummi ship and increase your cost limit when building ships in the editor.

;② HP Prizes
These will restore a small amount of HP to your ship.

;③ Items, ④ Unique Items
These generally contain gummi blocks and valuable items, respectively.

===Expediting Travel===
Want to get from point A to point B a little faster? Here are a few ways:

;(1) Nebula Lines
Enter the tunnel of light to race down it at high speed. You can exit the nebula line by pressing (L1) or (R1).

;② Boost Spheres ③ Boost Rings
Touch these for a temporary burst of speed. The rings also change your direction of travel.

===Gummi Battles===
Watch out for the '''Heartless markers''' on the gummi radar! Approaching these will trigger battles.

;Battle Rules
The rules of combat vary from battle to battle. Check the rules in the upper left of the screen when you start the battle.

;Battle Difficulty
The stars on the Heartless markers tell you how difficult each battle will be. If you're still at a low Gummi LV, you might want to steer clear.

===Battle Controls & Screen Layout===
;Battle Controls
The controls change slightly when you enter combat. Tilt (L-stick) to move your ship up/down/left/right. Hold {{button|x}} or (R2) for continual fire.

;Screen Layout
In the upper-left corner of the screen, you'll see: '''① Your score ② Enemies defeated ③ Your battle rank'''

Rack up a high score to increase your rank from E all the way up to A. The higher your rank at the end of the battle, the better the rewards.

===Treasure Spheres===
'''Treasure spheres''' contain rare items just waiting to be unlocked.

;Step 1: Shoot the Sphere to Activate it

;Step 2: Connects the Circuits
Locate the '''① gears''', then keep shooting them until you fully rotate them into position and connect the '''circuits'''. Keep your eyes peeled; some gears are dummies that don't actually do anything.

;Step 3: Profit
If you have successfully connected all the circuits, the treasure sphere will unlock.

You can exit the minigame with (L1) or (R1).

===Blueprint Fragments===
'''Blueprint Fragments''' can be found scattered across the Ocean Between. Collect all the fragments in a set and you will be rewarded with a valuable '''special+ blueprint'''.

To claim your reward, press (OPTIONS) to pause the game, then select '''Information > Gummi Missions'''. You will receive the special+ blueprint at that time.


===Constellations===
During your voyages, you will discover '''constellations'''.

;Photographing Constellations
Press (pad) to bust out your Gummiphone and take a picture of any constellation you find. Not only will this unlock gummi missions, but you'll also be '''awarded a blueprint for the constellation you found'''.

;Claiming Blueprints
Press (OPTIONS) to pause the game, then select '''Information > Gummi Missions''' to collect your reward.

===Links===
Links are magical manifestations of Sora's friends that he can summon to his side. To use them, select '''Link''' from the Command Menu.

Links require a '''full MP Gauge''' to use, and they reduce your MP to 0. In exchange, the friend you summon will '''fully restore your team's HP'''.

===Links: Meow Wow Balloon===
Press {{button|c}} to bound into the air and '''inflate Meow Wow one size at a time'''.

The, press {{button|x}} to '''deflate and barrel into enemies'''.

Select '''Game Help''' from the Main Menu to learn more about the camera controls.

===Lucky Emblems===
The Gummiphone will auto-detect any '''lucky emblems''' or other noteworthy subjects in frame and display a hit indicator.

The hint indicator will turn yellow if you are shooting at the correct angle and distance, or red if the distance or angle is wrong.

An icon will also appear in the lower right to tell you what's being detected.

===Little Chef's Bistro===
At Little Chef's bistro, you can transform the ingredients you've gathered into delicious meals.

Eating the cuisine you prepare will grant you beneficial effects like '''temporary stat increases'''.

The recipes available at the bistro '''depend on the ingredients you've gathered''', so be sure to scour each world you visit for the makings of new and powerful recipes.

===Classic Kingdom===
Select '''Classic Kingdom''' from the '''Gummiphone''' menu to access the game selection screen.

Press {{button|t}} to view the controls for the currently selected game.

To exit a game, press (OPTIONS) to pause the game, then select '''Exit''' to return to the game selection screen.

You never know where you might find new games to play, so keep your eyes peeled while exploring worlds.

===Formchanges: Double Arrowguns===
The '''Shooting Star''' Keyblade can be formchanged into a projectile weapon called the '''Double Arrowguns'''.

While formchanged, hold (R2) to take aim and automatically fire a stream of shots toward foes.

===Chop the Ingredients===
'''Chop the ingredients''' quickly and safely!

Rapidly tilt (L-stick down) to chop. Once you've finished with an ingredient, tilt (R-stick down) to bring out the next one.

You have a '''limited time''' to cook. Watch the hourglass at the edge of the kitchen.

===Grind the Pepper===
Use the pepper grinder to '''season with style'''!

Once the egg has cracked, press (L1) and (R1) simultaneously to drop it into the bowl.

You have a '''limited time''' to cook. Watch the hourglass at the edge of the kitchen.

The secret to delicious cuisine is imagination.

When the swirls of imagination appear, that's your cue to stop moving (L-stick)/(R-stick) and press (L1) and (R1) as delicately as you can.

===Flambé the Food===
Achieve the '''perfect flambé'''!

Tilt (L-stick) in a circle to pour. It needs to be just the right amount.

Once you think you're ready, tilt (R-stick down) to flambé!

You have a '''limited time''' to cook. Watch the hourglass at the edge of the kitchen.

The secret to delicious cuisine is imagination.

When the swirls of imagination fill the screen, that's when you should tilt (R-stick down). No sooner, no later. Be very careful not to overpour!

===Cuisine Bonus===
The '''cuisine''' you cook with Little Chef grants you temporary stat bonuses.

By eating a full course—starter, soup, fish dish, meat dish, and dessert—you'll gain an extra ability as well, known as a '''full course bonus'''.

;Step 1: Placing Blocks
Select a block with (d-pad left/right), then press {{button|x}} to place it.

;Step 2: Wrecking It
Press {{button|t}} to have Ralph punch the first block he placed, producing an explosion in the direction of the glow.

If other blocks are hit by the explosion, they will detonate as well, setting off a '''chain reaction'''! Keep that in mind when placing blocks.

Certain blocks can be moved by approaching with a Gigas and pressing {{buttons|t}}.

===Attractions: Magic Carousel===
Press {{button|x}} just as the spreading ring of light overlaps the outer circle to launch enemies into the air and deal a ton of damage.
