Walkthrough:Kingdom Hearts II/Twilight Town

The 1st Day
You start the game by controlling Roxas. Follow the tutorial shown for now.

Apparently, Roxas and his friends are accused to be thieves since some of the town's residence lost their photographs. But, not only the photos are stolen, but the word "photo" itself can't be said, as if it was also stolen! Seifer and his gang try to pick up a fight with Roxas by accusing them to be the culprits. Choose a Struggle Bat and be prepared for a fight against.

The fight against Seifer is not hard. Keep attacking him and you should deflect his attacks. When Seifer shouts "Isn't this romantic!?", just move away as he will leap into the air and do a straight-forward thrust to the ground.

After you humiliated Seifer, a strange white creature appears and steals Pence's camera. He might be the culprit so Roxas decides to run after it. Follow it into the hidden in the woods. Roxas will now battle the strange creature.

Don't stress too much on this fight, as your attacks will have no effect on it. For now, just use the "Reversal" reaction command and attack it to pass some time. Also, be careful when it's curling up on the ground, as it will kick you. Just jump out of the way to avoid it. After you gained the Keyblade, you can actually hit the creature, so use the Reversal reaction command to confuse it first, and use the opportunity to attack. To prevent the creature from attacking, you can just use Reversal and attack it two times, rinse and repeat.

The 2nd Day
View the cutscene as tries to persuade the others to go to the beach together. They have no money though. After the cutscene, you will appear in front of a Save Point. Save the game if you want to. Now, as mentioned before, they have no money. So they will have to work for now. Select one of the 6 jobs available (3 more are available at the Tram Common). It's recommended to play the minigames until you gain at least 1200 munny to get the AP+2 bonus. Gaining 2000 munny will automatically advance the story and give you the AP+2 bonus, but it's still recommended to get 1200 and meet Hayner by the Train Station, since you won't get to keep the 800 extra munny and will still get the bonus AP.

Station Plaza jobs

 * Mail Delivery: Roxas will be on his skateboard and he must deliver 5 letters. The route is pretty much linear, and to deliver the mail, you need to press the "Deliver" reaction command near the letter's receiver. There are 5 receiver in order, a boy in green clothing, a pigeon, a man in green clothing, and then you'll have to grind after delivering the letter to the boy to get to the pigeon above the gate to Tram Common, and finally turn to a corner to deliver the final letter to a lady in white shirt. To get the maximum payment of 50 munny, you need to deliver the letters under 20 seconds.


 * Cargo Climb: Roxas will have to push a cargo to a garage uphill... by hitting it with his Struggle Bat. Do the 3-hits combo on the cargo to make it move a bit, and after the second combo finisher, the cargo will jump. Hit the cargo, and it will move forward at high speed, making it easier for you to get it inside the garage. To get the maximum payment of 50 munny, you need to move the cargo inside the garage under 30 seconds.


 * Grandstander: Roxas will have to perform in a show by juggling a ball... again, by hitting it with his Struggle Bat. When the ball is on the ground, hit it once, and jump immediately and continue with a 3-hits air combo. The ball will fly higher when the combo's finisher hits, giving you the time to land and jump to combo it again. But timing is crucial, only do the combo when the ball is in front of you after you jump. Otherwise the combo's finisher won't hit the ball and the ball will continue to fall, reducing your number of tries by one. To get the maximum payment of 50 munny, you need to juggle the ball (hit the ball) at least 20 times.

Train Common jobs

 * Poster Duty: Roxas will have to travel around the area to post Struggle competition posters. These posters can be placed on spots that has a yellow box with a yellow 4-points star in the middle of it. Try to find 3 poster spots that are near each other. Also, each time the "Post" reaction command appears, press immediately as Roxas will leap forward and place a poster, which is much faster than pressing it in front of a spot. To get the maximum payment of 100 munny, you need to place 20 posters under 1 minute 30 seconds.


 * Bumble Buster: Roxas will have to exterminate bees by, yet again, hitting them with his trustworthy Struggle Bat. Each group of bees can go down in 2 hits. They can also attack Roxas, while the damage itself is very small, it can stagger Roxas for a while, making you lose some valuable time. For this minigame, it's better to not use Lock-On so Roxas's attacks can take out more bees rather than focusing on one. Before the second group of bees appear, it's better to move to their side and attack them on a vertical line, since most of the time all of the bees are hit and thus, finishing the minigame. To get the maximum payment of 50 munny, you need to exterminate 8 groups of bees under 20 seconds.


 * Junk Sweeper: Roxas will have to clean junks by... again and again, hitting them with his Struggle Bat. Since there are no time limits, you can determine the fastest way to dispose of the junks. Junks will be destroyed when hit by another junk, and you can send junks flying by hitting it with a combo-finisher. So determine which junk you should fling so it can hit the most junks. A much slower but reliable way is present, you can literally push the junks by running towards them to gather them in one spot and finish them with a combo. This will take a really long time to do though. To get the maximum payment of 50 munny, you need to dispose of the junks without using more than 10 hits.

You can choose whichever job you want to play, but it's highly recommended to play the Mail Delivery game as it only took 10 seconds per game (8 if you're really good). After trying it for a while you should memorize the locations of the mail receivers and deliver the mails in one go.

Regardless on how many munny you collected by doing jobs, the total would still be 5000 munny (technically the more diligent you are in collecting those munny, the lazier the other gets). But, it seems all those hard work are for waste, the munny pouch is stolen! And now Roxas and the others will have to postpone their plan...

The 3rd Day
You will be in the Usual Spot. Head over to the Station Heights for now. Pence and Olette are here... but just as they about to talk to Roxas, they froze! A strange girl then appears, telling Roxas to go to the Old Mansion. Roxas heads to the Woods as he sees Dusks floating around chasing him, he know he had no choice but to retreat. As he runs to the Sandlot, he meets Seifer and his gang. As they hold off the other Dusks, Roxas is left to face one of the Dusks.

This battle is the same as when you fight a Dusk before, just use Reversal and avoid its attack.

Seifer and his gang appears to be frozen as well, and as the Dusks lunge themselves towards Roxas, he wakes up in Station of Serenity. Pick up a weapon of your choice and be prepared for a battle.

You will fight against three Dusks this time. They will also gain new attacks, whenever you see them floating in the air, jump away as they will drop to the ground and headbutts you. And they're walking in the air, stay away from them as they will use their arms like whips to attack whatever's below them. Use the Reversal+2 hits technique and this battle should be done in no time.

Open up a treasure chest that just literally appeared out of nowhere to retrieve a Potion. A door and a save point will then appear. Save the game if you wish to and head towards the door to continue to the Station of Calling. 2 Dusks will appear on the first stained glass stair. At the second pillar, you'll encounter 3 Dusks and a treasure chest containing a Potion. At the second stained glass stair, you'll encounter a pair of Dusks. And at the third pillar, you'll encounter 3 Dusks and a door. After beating the Dusks, head towards the door and be prepared for a boss fight.

This big guy is called the Twilight Thorn. At the beginning of the battle, you'll be in a scripted fight, in which you'll have some reaction command pressing to do. After Roxas took down the Twilight Thorn, you can then attack it. Most of the times the "Reversal" reaction command will appear. Press it to avoid the thorns that are coming out of Twilight Thorn. Time your attacks and the Twilight Thorn should fall with ease.

After defeating the Twilight Thorn, the creature falls and envelops Roxas in darkness.

The 4th Day
Today's the Struggle tournament day. You'll start at the Sandlot. You can return to the Back Alley to meet Seifer and have a duel with him. His attacks are basically the same, only he has more health than before. Defeating him will net you 13 EXP points. The battle is repeatable so come back to level up by fighting Seifer if you have any trouble during the tournament.


 * ... to be continued.

First Visit
After the cutscene where he wakes up, you'll gain control of. You'll be outside of the mansion, so open the nearby before entering the forest.

You'll be automatically taken to the Usual Spot, where feels like he's been to this town before, but thinks he must have imagined it. Here, you'll meet up with, and , the three friends of. But something's not right about them. acts rudely because and his pals have meddled into their spot. then mistakes for being a fellow High School student by asking if he has finished his summer homework, which suprises. The two trios then introduce themselves. and then mention that somebody is looking for  and his friends. They don't know who that person was, because he wore a coat, but mentioned that he had big, round ears. Donald suspects the person mentioned is. asks where he is, and Pence tells him the King is at the Station..

Now you have control of the Sora again. There's a save point next to you, so save the game. Now head over to Market Street and climb the hill to the station. If you have enough Munny, try to purchase some, as they can be helpful.

Finally, upon reaching the Station, a bunch of strange foes (later revealed to be will attack you. You should try to take out as many as you can as they provide extra experience. The enemies keeps on appearing as if there is no end to them... Sora and his friends are too exhausted to even stand anymore. And just as a  lunges forward to attack the trio, a mysterious figure in a black coat defeats the  in a flash. The figure is revealed to be, who then tells the trio to board the next train and leave the town. He then hands over a pouch containing 5,000 munny and a blue orb before running off.

then takes this encounter as a sign that may be okay, since he was trapped in the  alongside the king. Because of this, has decided to go look for, so that the two of them can return to the islands together, since  is there waiting for them. Sora asks what will Donald and Goofy do, in which Goofy replies by asking him "does he really have to ask?". Sora then starts to laugh at Donald and Goofy's expressions, and so does Donald and Goofy. The party then agrees to stick together for one more journey.

Go inside the station, and another cutscene will begin.
