Racing Riku is the mini game in the original Kingdom Hearts involving racing Riku around the island. It takes place on Destiny Islands and after it is destroyed, you can no longer place this game.

Objective

The Objective is to beat Riku in a race that Kairi times. This adds on to the Sora and Riku score board. Each time Sora wins he will receive a Pretty Stone which is worth 30 munny. This can be done up to 99 times.

Course

The course runs through the cove of Destiny Islands where a zip line can be taken or the long route towards a star shaped marker and then back. The star will glow once the half marker has been reached. Players cannot cheat by hitting Riku as use of the Wooden Sword is disabled. Riku may take the zipline if Sora blocks his path but at certain intervals of the race Riku will walk instead of run.
