Puzzle
Puzzle is a minigame added to Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix as part of the content added from Kingdom Hearts II. As the name implies, the minigame consists of simple puzzles of six different pieces of artwork that can be assembled from pieces found throughout the game; successfully completing one of the puzzles by finding all of its pieces and correctly assembling them will result in a reward for Sora.
As Sora and his party travel throughout the various Worlds, they come across puzzle pieces, represented by silver crowns. There are 144 puzzle pieces in all, and each piece will fit into one of the six puzzles. The first four puzzles consist of 12 pieces while the last two puzzles are larger and consist of 48 pieces apiece. The puzzles and their pieces can be accessed through Jiminy's Journal; pieces will not automatically go into the correct spot in the correct puzzle, but must be selected, moved with the left analog stick, and rotated with the right until they are in the right place.
