Retrotopia Talks Kingdom Hearts

HEY! Check out Alan's first foray into the world of narration in his debut audio book reading of HALF MADE UP over on AUDIBLE (UK Link, USA Link, Canada Link)

Welcome to another episode of Retrotopia: Another Video Game Podcast. This is a show where we, Alan, Brian, and Sam, get together to discuss video games from years gone by. We like to look at video games from the perspective of lifelong gamers and how they hold up in the retro sphere.

This week we are discussing Kingdom Hearts, a PlayStation 2 game released in 2002 that throws a spiky-haired kid named Sora into an unexpected crossover fever dream where Disney worlds and Final Fantasy characters collide. Armed with the magical Keyblade, Sora teams up with Donald Duck and Goofy to hop between iconic Disney films, battle the shadowy Heartless, and unravel a surprisingly emotional story about friendship, light, and losing yourself to darkness, all wrapped in flashy action-RPG combat and a soundtrack that still lives rent-free in gamers’ heads.
