Game:Playing Card



The Queen of Hearts appears alongside the Card Soldiers and Crank Tower as a boss in Wonderland.

Kingdom Hearts
After Sora presents his evidence to the Queen of Hearts she refuses to let Alice go. Card Soldiers hoist her high above the courtyard, using the Crank Tower. In order to rescue Alice from her cage, Sora must destroy the Crank Tower while at the same time fighting of the Card Soldiers and the Queen of Hearts.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
The Queen of Hearts again orders the Card Soldiers to attack after Sora claims that he is the "true thief." In this game, however, Sora only fights the Card Soldiers and not the Queen of Hearts or Crank Tower.

Strategy
The cards wield polearms and should therefore be considered dangerous even when at a distance. They cannot be killed, merely knocked out. Your actual target is the Tower.

Unlike most enemies, the Crank Tower has "endurance" instead of HP, meaning that it takes a set amount of hits to defeat it, and the strength of those hits do not matter. The gear handles have an endurance of 9, while the Tower itself has an endurance of 24. By landing strong combos on it, you can stun all of the Card Soldiers temporarily.

Start by knocking out all the Card Soldiers to give yourself time to attack the tower. This will allow to complete several combos on the crank handles. One or two Card Soldier may wake up while attacking, but they will be quickly stunned by the combos on the Crank Tower. There are four handles you must destroy before you can begin attacking the tower.

Sora can also attack the Queen. If you do, she will topple over and the Cards will be stunned for a short period of time.
