The game is divided into three separate scenarios, with each scenario surrounding an individual of the three main characters: Terra, Ventus and Aqua. The gameplay of each scenario differs based on the personalities and abilities of each character such as power, speed and magic. Players are able to choose which of the three scenarios to play at the start of a new game. Once all three of the scenarios are completed and all [[Xehanort Reports]] are collected, the [[Final Episode]] is unlocked. Each character's story will take about fifteen hours, hence the total amount of gameplay hours would be forty-five hours (excluding deck-editing, retries, and countless other activities), making ''Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep'' the longest game in the series to date.
The game is divided into three separate scenarios, with each scenario surrounding an individual of the three main characters: Terra, Ventus and Aqua. Players are able to choose which of the three scenarios to play at the start of a new game. The order does not matter, although Terra > Ventus > Aqua is often recommended because Terra is the slowest and playing him after Ventus/Aqua can feel agonizingly slow. Aqua is often recommended last because she has one extra scenario (or two if playing the ''Final Mix'' version), in which the finale of the game concludes. Magic is extremely important in Aqua's scenario, and the player will need to spend time learning how the Melding system works and get an idea of what sort of outcomes exist. Because of the final scenario(s), the player should prepare Aqua as much as possible before doing the final boss in her scenario.

After finishing one character's scenario, the player should not save over their prior save when starting another, as the game is meant to be played with multiple save files, leaving the player with four save files in original version or five in the ''Final Mix'' version. This also holds true for having a separate save files for Aqua's scenario, the Final Episode and Secret Episode.
 
The gameplay of each scenario differs based on the personalities and abilities of each character such as power, speed and magic. They are, for each character, roughly:
 
*Terra: strong physical attacks, medium speed, poor magic
*Ventus: medium physical attacks, strong speed, medium magic
*Aqua: poor physical attacks, medium speed, strong magic
 
Once all three of the scenarios are completed and all [[Xehanort Reports]] are collected, the [[Final Episode]] is unlocked. In the ''Final Mix'' version, the [[Secret Episode]] is after the Final Episode.
 
Each character's story will take about fifteen hours, hence the total amount of gameplay hours would be forty-five hours (excluding deck-editing, retries, and countless other activities), making ''Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep'' the longest game in the series to date.
