''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'' follows a completely new battle system and game play than from those of ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]].'' The battle system now revolves around Sora's memories, represented as [[cards]]. Using [[Attack Cards]], [[Magic Cards]], and [[Item Cards]] is the only way to attack. Each card has a number from 0 to 9. When a card is played against the enemy's card, the card with the lower value "Breaks" and is discarded. This leaves enemies vulnerable for a few seconds. Cards with a value of 0 can break any attack, but can also be broken by any card played after wards. If a 0 is played before another high level card it will not be broken and will leave your opponent wide open for attacks. [[Enemy Cards]] can also be used in battle to temporarily give abilities to Sora. | ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'' follows a completely new battle system and game play than from those of ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]].''

*Sora sounds like he did in Kingdom Hearts II, even though he's younger in this game. Clearly this is due to the voice actor hitting puberty a while back. | *Sora sounds like he did in Kingdom Hearts II, even though he's younger in this game.
