== Story ==
[[Sora]], [[Donald]], [[Goofy]], and [[Jiminy Cricket]] are traveling across the universe in the [[Gummi Ship]] when they decide to go to sleep. They put the [[Gummi Ship]] on autopilot, and in their sleep, a strange creature creeps undetected into the vessel and subsumes the dreams of [[Sora]]. When he wakes up, he is shipwrecked on a deserted island called [[Swordman Island]], and [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] are nowhere to be found. His goal is to find his friends and leave the island, but even after searching every nook and cranny of the island, [[Sora]] cannot find [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]], so he builds a raft and leaves the island to find them.

The story of Kingdom Hearts V Cast, aside from familiar characters, settings, etc., has nothing to do with the original plot of ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'', and is almost completely irrelevant to the series. Kingdom Hearts V Cast also appears to have no plot of its own other than finding [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] and it was never directly stated when the events in Kingdom Heart V Cast happened during ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' because it was not considered a side game of importance, but there are many theories. The first is that it could have taken place in or during ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' because [[Sora]] has already met [[Donald]], [[Goofy]], and [[Jiminy Cricket]] and they are traveling in the [[Gummi ship]]. It could have happened when they were traveling between different [[world|worlds]], namely [[Hollow Bastion]] and the [[world|worlds]] before it because of the periodic cutscenes showing [[Maleficent]] watching [[Sora]] through a magical cauldron with green, misty water. These cutscenes suggest that [[Maleficent]] is attempting to stall [[Sora]] in a dream-like state as he is reaching [[Maleficent's Fortress|her lair]].

==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
Kingdom Hearts V Cast brings back the gameplay elements featured in the original ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', though it was modified for compatibility with mobile phones. [[Sora]] moves similar to a tank with one button on the contol pad moving him forward, another moving him backwards, and two more turning him left or right. Even with these new controls, [[Sora]] can still pull off a number of moves aside from running and jumping. He can climb trees and ladders, grasp the edges of platforms and pull himself up, lift and throw objects, and use the [[Keyblade]] to slide down zip lines.

[[Sora]] can still use the [[Keyblade]] and also [[magic]], the first spell he learns being Blizzard, to fight like in ''Kingdom Hearts'', and [[Munny]] and [[Experience]] are still earned by defeating [[Heartless]].

The above characters are all known to be characters in Kingdom Hearts V Cast, but several gaming websites and other websites such as [http://www.kh2.co.uk/?page=Kingdom%20Hearts%20Mobile Kingdom Hearts Ultimania] have said that [[Sora]] is helped by "more than 20 characters" over the course of the game. It is unknown who exactly those 20+ characters are.
 
[[Maleficent]] is the main villain in Kingdom Hearts V Cast, and she is often shown after chapters looking down at [[Sora]] from a magical cauldron filled with green, misty water, though it may be safe to assume she is not the only villain from ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' to also appear in Kingdom Hearts V Cast, as [[Jafar]] may appear as a boss in the [[Agrabah]] chapter. Though the Catapiller is a character in the game that does not appear in [[Wonderland]] in the original ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]''.
