|topfive=#[[File:Icon Movement KHBBS.png]] '''Flowmotion''': Introduced in the most recent ''Dream Drop Distance'', Flowmotion indulges players with the freedom of locomotion and thrill of motion attacks. After soaring the landscape with Flowmotion, I began to look at walking pedestrians with pity.
#[[File:Heartless Emblem.png|10px]] '''Dark Mode''': Most disliked ''Chain of Memories''<nowiki>'</nowiki> slow-paced card system, which made Dark Mode all the more refreshing. Not only did Dark Mode have powerful attacks, the increased mobility allowed players to break the mundane routine that battles could become. What's more, Dark Mode was a balanced system that didn't ruin the game's difficulty, like Drive Forms did.
#[[File:Drive_Orb KHII.png|10px]] '''Drive Forms''': In my opinion, ''Kingdom Hearts II''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s combat isn't the most challenging. But with Drive Forms that doesn't matter, since the stylish costumes and Keyblade flair are enough to forgive any OPed aspects
#[[File:Icon Attack KHBBS.png]] '''Deck Command''': With three games implementing them, Deck Commands have been well-established in the series. ''Dream Drop Distance'' and ''Re:coded'' had their twists, but the initial ''Birth by Sleep''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s system remains the best, adding the deepest strategy and precision that prevented the game from becoming a button masher.
#[[File:Slot Releaser KHD.png]] '''Panel System''': Although it wasn't implemented perfectly, ''358/2 Days''<nowiki>'</nowiki> panels were certainly innovative to say the least. They were an interesting spin on existing RPG elements and formed a subtle mini-game that required you to slot the panels together like a jig-saw puzzle.
|userreview='''Another Guardian of Light''' is the secret ending for ''Dream Drop Distance'' so this review is bound to contain spoilers. The nearly-four minute video effectively sets up for ''Kingdom Hearts III'' so let's take a look.
[[File:KH3D icon.png|center]]
The video starts with a few cryptic scenes with Xehanort in his youth and then Aqua in the Dark Margin, later goes onto a conversation between Donald and Goofy, and then ends with a meeting between Mickey and Yen Sid. For me, the secret ending's main weakness is the fact that it consists entirely of dialogue. Although this helps build the tension for the revelation at the end, it makes Another Guardian of Light pale in comparison to the pizazz of previous secret endings, such as The Gathering.
However, the ending slightly redeems itself by leading on a strong plot. While the Xehanort scene seems to be there purely to start fan discussions among the KH theorists, the conversation between Donald and Goofy neatly ties a few loose ends with the mention of Lea's return to Radiant Garden. The "meat" of the ending is the counsel with Yen Sid and it delivers a satisfying introduction to the intriguing concepts of the "Seven Guardians of Light" and "Thirteen Darknesses". The climax of the scene is the revelation that Kairi could wield the Keyblade, a topic that many had theorised beforehand.

'''Final Opinion''': Another Guardian of Light doesn't live up to previous secret endings but it introduces intriguing story concepts and, at the very least, sets up for Kingdom Hearts III.
