So overall, it's a great experience, rich and concise, rather short to do much wrong. But honestly, that for me didn't make the experience considerably worse, since the combat is still a pleasure to both play and watch. It's apparent that even with its short length the game is not completely free of padding. One of the very few annoying elements is the repetition of certain boss fights. If you liked Aqua back in Birth by Sleep, then this game can be considered a very generous gift. For its short duration of 3-5 hours, the game showers the player with an astonishingly beautiful picture and sound, colourful and dynamic dance-like battles, a bit of puzzles and a pretty good story, which consists mostly of monologues.

The game tells of the times when Aqua was stranded alone in the Realm of Darkness. It was never released as a separate game and for the good reasons. In essence, this is a short bonus addition to Dream Drop Distance home console release. In total, it spans nine hours of content from various composers (most notably Yoko Shimomura) and musicians like Hikaru Utada, Randy Newman, and Skrillex. (this is a review for the Fragmentary Passage only!) This particular album includes 165 tracks across Kingdom Hearts 3, Kingdom Hearts 2.8, and the mobile games Unchained X and Union X.
