The '''100 Acre Wood''' is an optional [[world]] based on the fictional locale of author [[wikipedia:A. A. Milne|A. A. Milne]] and Disney's twenty-second animated feature, ''[[wikipedia:The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh|The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh]]''. It is notable in both [[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]] and [[Kingdom Hearts II]] as a "world within a world" because it is entered through a book in [[Traverse Town]] and [[Hollow Bastion]]/[[Radiant Garden]], respectively. The world takes the form of a magical book located in [[Merlin]]'s house. As [[Sora]] collects [[Torn Page|Torn Pages]], new areas of the 100 Acre Wood become available as the story is retold. It appears in [[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]] and, maybe, in the new [[Kingdom Hearts Coded]] of 2009.

The '''100 Acre Wood''', also written as the '''Hundred Acre Wood''', is a [[world]] based on the fictional locale of author {{w|A. A. Milne}} and Disney's twenty-second animated feature, ''{{w|The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh}}''. The world is contained within an [[Old Book|old book]] that [[Merlin]] keeps with him, and as [[Sora]] collects [[Torn Pages]], the lost areas of the world are revealed as the story is retold.


When Sora enters the book, he lands on a version of the flat map of the 100 Acre Wood. Classic locations such as [[Pooh]] and [[Piglet|Piglet's]] House appear as well as the Muddy Path and Spooky Cave. In each location is usually a minigame with prizes which help Sora on his journey.
In ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', the 100 Acre Wood is a world within a world, being entered through the Merlin's book in [[Traverse Town]], [[Radiant Garden]], and [[Twilight Town]], respectively. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', the 100 Acre Wood is only playable through the [[Command Board]].


==Setting==
Due to the peaceful atmosphere and downplay of violence in 100 Acre Wood, Sora's "Attack" command is changed to "Hit" or "Strike" while in this world.
[[Image:Art-25.jpg|right|thumb|200px|The Hunny Tree]]
===Kingdom Hearts===
The 100 Acre Wood takes slightly different forms in each game. The first area opened in Kingdom Hearts is the '''Empty Meadow''', where Sora meets [[Winnie the Pooh]]. Going to Pooh's House from there both progresses the story and allows Sora to meet [[Owl]], who reappears throughout the world to explain the rules of each mini-game.'''Pooh's Room''' is also accesible from his house. The first area to open up is the '''Hunny Tree''', which introduces Piglet, and the second is '''[[Rabbit]]'s House''' (where you can access '''Rabbit's Room'''), which allows Sora to meet both Rabbit and [[Tigger]]. In the '''Wood Hill''', which contains '''Pooh’s Swing''', Sora rescues [[Eeyore]], and in the '''Giant Pot''' area, Tigger is joined by [[Roo]]. Finally, the '''Muddy Path''' holds the last mini-game in which all of the friends are reunited and allows the 100 Acre Woods' [[Keyhole]] to be sealed.


==Kingdom Hearts II==
==Settings and Areas==
Kingdom Hearts II has a couple of the same locations, most notably '''Pooh and Rabbit's Houses''', although the games there have changed and '''Rabbit's House''' is not available until the second Torn Page is found. In addition, '''Piglet's House''' has been added as the first mini-game location to open up. '''[[Kanga]] and Roo's House''' opens up at the third torn page, and the '''Spooky Cave''' at the fourth. The final area, '''Starry Hill''' will open when all five pages have been found and completes the repairs on Pooh's poor, abused book which was ripped by the [[Heartless]]. With Kanga, [[Gopher]] is the new character in this sequel.
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
[[File:100 Acre Wood Book KH.png|225px|left|thumb|A map of the 100 Acre Wood.]]
As Sora enters the {{nihongo|'''{{a|100 Acre Wood}}'''|100エーカーの森|100 Ēkā no Mori|lit. "Forest of 100 Acres"}} he'll find himself on a map leading to the world's other areas. To unlock the world's locations Sora has to collect all of the book's pages. Upon his first visit only one area is available, the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Wood: Meadow}}'''|草原|Sōgen|lit. "Grassland"}}, where Sora meets Winnie the Pooh. It's a small meadow surrounded by trees, scattered with a few flowers and rocks, whose primary feature is a hollow, overturned log which Winnie the Pooh often uses as a seat. The next area contains  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Pooh's House}}'''|プーのいえ|Pū no Ie}}, where Sora meets the wise [[Owl]]. It is a humble cottage built into the roots of a large tree, standing alongside a meandering forest path. In the grass behind the cottage are five pots of honey which track Sora's progress in obtaining the [[Cheer]] ability<!--also mention in our Walkthrough:100 Acre Wood-->; when Sora has completed the required objective in one of the five involved [[mini-games]], the pot is filled with honey. Pooh keeps a sign reading "Mr. Sanders" above the door, as well as a bell and a note reading "RNIG ALSO",{{sic}} and has left a small cooking fire with a log to sit on directly below it. Through the door is {{nihongo|'''{{a|Pooh's Room}}'''|プーのへや|Pū no Heya}}, a spartan room with a chair, a table, a bed, a window, a mirror, some clocks and paintings of honeypots, two cupboards filled with honeypots, and many honeypots laying about.


==Story==
[[File:Rabbit's House (Art).png|200px|thumb|Artwork of Rabbit's House.]]
===Kingdom Hearts===
The first Torn Page to be restored contains the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Hunny Tree}}'''|ハチミツの木|Hachimitsu no Ki}}, where Sora and Pooh find Piglet. It is an immense English Oak tree on a small knoll, filled with cavities and beehives. The knoll also holds a small pond and another hollow log, where Piglet hides. Sora can play the mini-game, [[Pooh's Hunny Hunt]] from this location. The second Torn Page contains {{nihongo|'''{{a|Rabbit's House}}'''|ラビットのいえ|Rabitto no Ie}} and '''{{a|Rabbit's Room}}''', where Sora meets both [[Rabbit]] and [[Tigger]]. Like Pooh, Rabbit lives in a cottage built into the roots of a tree, which stands above a small field of cabbages, pumpkins, and carrots crossed by a tiny stream. Sora has to protect the vegetables in the [[Block Tigger]] mini-game. Rabbit's home is neater and tidier than Pooh's, with a respectable mailbox, clothesline, and gutter pipe, as well as a rabbithole out the back with a sign reading "RABBIT'S HOWSE".{{sic}} The third Torn Page contains the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Wood: Hill}}'''|丘|Oka|lit. "Hill"}}, near the Meadow, where Sora rescues Eeyore. It is a medium-sized bluff standing above a running brook, crossed by a wooden beam bridge. On top of the bluff is another large oak, from which Pooh's swing hangs, and is where the [[Pooh's Swing]] mini-gane is activated. Across the brook is Eeyore's "house", a tiny lean-to made of sticks. The fourth Torn Page contains the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Bouncing Spot}}'''|ティガーの遊び場|Tigā no Asobiba|lit. "Tigger's Playground"}}, where Tigger and [[Roo]] spend their time. It is a clearing in the middle of the woods, filled with tree stumps and a seesaw. An immense honeypot sits on the center-most stump, and many Rare Nuts hang from the surrounding trees. Sora can play the mini-game [[Tigger's Giant Pot]] at this area.
The book is first given to Sora by [[Cid]], near the beginning of the game, to give to Merlin, who tells Sora that there is a world within the book and he needs to collect torn pages throughout the worlds until he finds and seals the 100 Acre Wood's Keyhole. When Sora first goes into the book, he meets Winnie the Pooh who is the only one left in the book. Along the way, he finds and makes friends with each of the Wood's inhabitants with whom he plays a Christopher Robin-like role.


===Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories===
The final Torn Page contains the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Muddy Path}}'''|どろんこ道|Doronko Michi}}, a winding forest trail where each of Pooh's friends has gotten lost once again. The bottom-most portion is a small moody ravine underneath the trees, with a small hollow thicket of brush at its middle. At the end of a glen is a well from which very strong winds blow, adjacent to several burrows. Above the well is a hollow log crossing the sides of the ravine, and the trees hold a few beehives. There are several geraniums throughout the ravine, where Pooh can find butterflies to carry him around. At this location, Sora has to help Pooh find all his friends in the [[Pooh's Muddy Path]] mini-game.
This world is a memory, created in [[Castle Oblivion]], of Sora's where he must help Pooh Bear find all his friends. It functions quite differently from other worlds: no Heartless are fought, cards do not have to be used to progress, and the rooms are fully linear. Each room houses a different minigame, which if won provides Sora with a new [[Sleight]]. Completing all the games wins a [[Item Cards|Megalixir]] [[cards|card]].
<!--Try to add which Winnie the pooh stories/cartoons each area is taken from-->


===Kingdom Hearts II===
The [[Keyhole]] for 100 Acre Woods is the book's lock and is sealed once Sora has completed all stories.
In Kingdom Hearts II, Merlin moves to Hollow Bastion and takes the book with him. When Sora returns, he excitedly enters the book to check up on his friends. While he is greeting Pooh, he is suddenly ejected from the book as the Heartless try to steal it. During the battle to recover the book, it is damaged. Upon return, Sora finds Pooh with severe amnesia, unable to remember him and all of his other friends. Sora then continues to find Torn Pages which slowly restore Pooh's memory of his friends. Shortly after fully repairing the book, Sora admits that he has to leave again but reassures Pooh that they will always be in each other's [[heart]]s.


==Characters==
===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
In ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', Sora visits a memory based version of the 100 Acre Woods. The world is reduced to a long path through the woods, with a hollow, overturned log in each end of the map, and some tree stumps along the way. Sora quickly meet up with Pooh which prompts the world's [[mini-game]]: get Pooh to the exit while finding all of his lost friends. Once they find each of Pooh's friends they'll give Sora a reward. The mini-game is also a great place to collect [[Moogle Point]]s.


<gallery>
In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', the world is split up into multiple rooms along a path, with most of the rooms featuring a mini-games. The first area is  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Pooh Bear's House}}'''|プーのいえ|Pū no Ie}} and where. The next area is  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Rabbit's House}}'''|ラビットのいえ|Rabitto no ie}}, which contains Rabbit and the [[Veggie Panic]] mini-games. {{nihongo|'''{{a|Hunny Tree}}'''|ハチミツの木|Hachimitsu no Ki}} contains Owl and the [[Balloon Glider]] mini-game, while  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Tigger's Playground}}'''|ティガーの遊び場|Tiggā no Asobiba}} contains Tigger, Roo, the [[Tigger's Jump-a-Thon]] mini-game, and the only treasure chest of this world, the [[Spellbinder]] Card, which requires [[Glide]] or [[Superglide]] to reach. The  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Muddy Road}}'''|どろんこ道|Doronko Michi}} contains Eeyore, as well as the [[Whirlwind Plunge]] and [[Bumble-Rumble]] mini-games. Finally, the  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Fields}}'''|草原|Sōgen|lit. "Meadow"}} contain a save point and the world exit.

==Mini-Games==
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
===Kingdom Hearts===
[[File:The Expotition 01 KHII.png|left|225px|thumb|Sora traversing the Spooky Cave in search of Pooh.]]
====Pooh's Hunny Hunt====
''Kingdom Hearts II'' retains a few of the previous locations in the 100 Acre Wood, while also introducing new ones. When Sora enters the book he'll arrive at a page simply called {{nihongo|'''{{a|The Hundred Acre Wood}}'''|100エーカーの森|100 Ēkā no Mori|lit. "Forest of 100 Acres"}}, from which he can access the book's other pages. The book's first location is {{nihongo|'''{{a|Pooh Bear's House}}'''|「プーの家」のおはなし|"Pū no Ie" no Ohanashi|lit. "The Story of Pooh's House"}} which differs from the first game by the passage at the end being covered up by bushes, and his door blocked by empty honey pots.
After Sora recieves the first Torn Page from [[Pongo]] and [[Perdita]], in Traverse Town, the Hunny Tree area is opened up. When you enter, you meet a frightened Piglet who tries to run away from Sora. Pooh then introduces Sora and Piglet. The mini-game in this area is Pooh's Hunny Hunt. The point of the game is similar to the movie "Winnie the Pooh and the Hunny Tree". The objective is to guard Pooh from the bees as he flies up holding his balloon and collecting hunny.


====Block Tigger====
A new addition that comes with the first Torn Page is {{nihongo|'''{{a|Piglet's House}}'''|「ピグレットの家」のおはなし|"Piguretto no Ie" no Ohanashi|lit. "The Story of Piglet's House"}}, which is a large oak on top of a hill with a great view of the rest of the woods. His house's got a tiny door and a tiny mailbox, and huge sign saying "TRESPASSERS WILL"{{sic}}. To save Piglet - who's been taken by the wind - Sora has to play the [[A Blustery Rescue]] mini-game. The second Torn Page brings Sora back to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Rabbit's House}}'''| 「ラビットの家」のおはなし|Rabitto no Ie no Ohanashi|lit. "The Story of Rabbit's House"}}. This time Rabbit's house can't be accessed and is blocked by flower pots. It's also where the [[Hunny Slider]] mini-game can be accessed which takes Sora and Pooh on a journey through the 100 Acre Woods and several of its pages. The third Torn Page contains {{nihongo|'''{{a|Kanga's House}}'''|「カンガの家」のおはなし|"Kanga no Ie" no Ohanashi|lit. "The Story of Kanga's House"}} and it's located close to a river where the mini-game [[Balloon Bounce]] occurs. Outside her house is also an open area filled with a lot of cardboard boxes.
This mini game is set outside of Rabbit's House and is the second one in the game. This one is also among the hardest.  
When Sora arrives in the 100 Acre wood for the third time in the top left corner of the book a large tree appears this turns out to be Rabbit's house. Around the back Sora will speak to Pooh and Piglet. Then Sora goes into rabbits house where Rabbit tries to hide his last pot of honey from Pooh but to no avail. If you try to leave Rabbit's House Piglet comes rushing after Sora and says that something terrible has happened ! It turns out that Pooh has eaten so much honey he has got stuck trying to get out of Rabbit's house. Rabbit concludes that the only way to get him out of there is to give him some carrot juice. Unfortunately Tigger appears at just the wrong moment and decides seeming that his old jumping patch has disappeared he will use Rabbits garden instead. This is when the mini game starts.  


=====Tactics=====
The fourth Torn Page leads to the maze-like {{nihongo|'''{{a|The Spooky Cave}}'''|「おばけ洞窟」のおはなし|"Obake Dōkutsu" no Ohanashi|lit. "The Story of The Haunted Cave"}}; a dark cavern with patches of icy floors and generally filled with blue crystals. In the mini-game [[The Expotition]], Sora has to navigate the cave in order to find Pooh.
Tigger will start bouncing everywhere around the Vegetable Patch. Your main objective is to get underneath him before he can bury the carrots into the ground there is a very useful command that can get you right underneath Tigger called Rush but it can sometimes miss if you are not quick enough. To win you need to get at least 150 points. This mini game isn't that difficult if you use the rush command but if you are looking for a challenge don't use it.


====Pooh's Swing====
The final Torn Page opens access to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Starry Hill}}'''|「星空の丘」のおはなし|"Hoshizora no Oka" no Ohanashi|lit. "The Story of The Starry-Skied Hill"}}, which is the same area as Wood: Hill from the first game, but set during the night. From here Sora can play [[The Hunny Pot]] mini-game.
When you find the third Torn Page in [[Monstro]], the Hill area is opened up. When Sora enters, Pooh and Piglet are playing Pooh Sticks when they see Eeyore floating down the river. As always, Eeyore doesn't know where his tail is. Pooh offers to help. He asks Sora to push him in the swing to look for the tail. This is the mini-game for this section. You must press the button at the correct time to push Pooh higher. Once Pooh gets high enough, he jumps off and lands on Eeyore's "House". It turns out that the tail was in Eeyore's "House"!


====Bouncing====
{|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
Once you gain the fourth Torn Page from [[Dr. Finkelstein]]'s lab in [[Halloween Town]], the Giant Pot area is opened. This area has 3 minigames in it compared to the other locations. The first is a game where you try to mimic the bouncing patterns of Tigger and Roo. The game is fairly straightforward.

====Tigger's Giant Pot====
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
This is the main mini-game in the Giant Pot Area. You can only play it once you complete the Bouncing mini-game. In this game, Tigger goes into the giant pot in the middle of the area. Sora's job is to hit the nuts that Tigger throws out of the pot back at it to shatter the pot. If you fall off of the stump you are on, you lose the game.
In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', the world has been significantly scaled down compared to previous appearances. The only part of the world that can be accessed is {{nihongo|'''Rabbit's House'''|ラビットの家|Rabitto no Ie}}, where the entirety of the plot takes place, and where all three mini-games can be found. Like in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Sora can only explore Rabbit's garden, but with the house itself not being explorable. Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Roo, Lumpy, and, of course, Rabbit all reside in this area.
{{-}}


====Rare Nut Gathering====
==Story==
This is more of a hunt-and-find mission than a mini-game. If you talk to Owl after completing Tigger's Giant Pot, he will tell you that he likes the rare nuts that grow in this area of the wood. He offers to give some rare items, as [[Defense Up]], for each nut that is brought to him.
===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
[[File:Command Board Rabbit KHBBS.png|thumb|Rabbit, before almost being crushed by a pumpkin.]]
When Merlin drops the 100 Acre Wood book while walking home, [[Terra]] picks it up and returns it to him, who says he has never seen it before. He leaves it in his house for Terra, and later invites [[Aqua]] and [[Ventus]] in to read it when they pass by. After it is returned, the three main characters can read it to unlock their hidden powers, visualized as the [[Hunny Pot Board]].


====Pooh's Muddy Path====
===Between ''Birth by Sleep'' and ''Kingdom Hearts''===
Once you find the last Torn Page in [[Ariel]]'s Grotto in [[Atlantica]], the Muddy Path area is opened. When you enter, you see Pooh walking in circles trying to find his friends. The mini-game objective is to find all of Pooh's friends within the time limit. Once you find them, a scene takes place on the Hill at night where Sora explains that he has to go. Pooh and his friends try to get him to stay, but he tells them that if the want to see them, they should just look in their hearts. Then we see Pooh's Book against a starry backround. The keyhole on the lock disappears and a picture of Sora, Pooh, Tigger, and Piglet walking down a road appears on the cover of the book with the words "Winnie the Pooh".
Merlin continued to hold on to the book for Terra, but over the decade the book started to fall apart with even the cover illustration fading away. During his many travels, Merlin ultimately lost five pages from the books across the worlds, causing the '''Hunny Tree''', the '''Muddy Path''', '''Rabbit's House''', the '''Starry Hill''' and '''Tigger's Bouncing Spot''' to vanish from the 100 Acre Wood, along with many of its inhabitants. Merlin brought the book to Cid in [[Traverse Town]] to repair the book, but ultimately the world inside could only be restored by returning the missing pages to the book.


===[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]===
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
====Veggie Panic====
[[File:The book and the beginning.png|thumb|left|Sora observes the book.]]
As the memory-based version of 100 Acre Wood does not use pages as in a book, Sora will have to go to Rabbit's House (which is immediately after Pooh's house). There, Sora talks to Pooh and Rabbit, and not long after, Rabbit finds that vegetables are hurtling down the slope behind his house. In this mini-game, Sora will have to separate cabbages from pumpkins (cabbages go to the left side of the road while pumpkins go to the right) - by pressing the Square and Circle buttons respectively. Occasionally, a big yellow gourd would be rolling down the road, and Sora will have to activate a [[reaction command]] (Strike Raid, using the Triangle button) to keep it at bay.
Cid first gives the book to Sora to give to Merlin, who tells Sora that there is a world within the book. He mentions that Sora needs to collect Torn Pages throughout the worlds until he finds and seals the 100 Acre Wood's Keyhole. When Sora first goes into the book, he meets Winnie the Pooh, who has lost sight of his friends; only [[Owl]] is left in the book with him.  


===Kingdom Hearts II===
Sora collects the missing pages from [[Agrabah]], [[Monstro]], [[Atlantica]] and [[Halloween Town]], as well as from [[Pongo and Perdita]] for rescuing 51 of their [[99 Puppies]]. The pages restore the book bit by bit and returning the other inhabitants home. Along the way, he meets [[Piglet]], [[Rabbit]], [[Tigger]], [[Eeyore]] and [[Roo]], helping resolve problems for them and helping Pooh reunite with them. After helping them find each after getting lost in the Muddy Path, Sora joins them for stargazing. Deciding it was time to resume his search for [[Riku]] and [[Kairi]], Sora said good-bye to his new friends, promising to return. As a result of their new friendship, the blank book cover magically gained an illustration of Sora, Pooh, Tigger and Piglet out for a walk; the keyhole on the clasp also was sealed.
====A Blustery Rescue====
{{-}}
After you get the first Torn Page from the [[Disney Castle]] Library, Piglet's House is opened up. You can play the Blustery Day mini-game by talking to Piglet at his house.
In this mini-game, you must fly from a balloon during a blustery storm. The Bluster has uprooted such objects as hunny pots, beehives, and tree stumps, also creating helpful tornadoes in its wake as well.


What you must do, is whack at objects flying towards you, and collect Hunny. If you are hit with any sort of object, you will be penalizaed with Pooh falling from the Balloon, and being caught of a wind current for you to pick him up again. Without Pooh, you cannot collect hunny, much like in "hunny slide". At last, piglet will float on screen and you can press a reaction command, to retreive him.
===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
The 100 Acre Wood appears in Sora's second set of [[World Cards]], and can be accessed on the seventh, eighth, ninth, or tenth floor of [[Castle Oblivion]]. When Sora enters the world, he finds Pooh all alone, and decides to go down the path with the teddy bear in order to find his lost friends. Upon going down the path, Sora and Pooh find Rabbit picking up cabbages, and get Owl's attention by having Pooh float high in the air with a bundle of balloons, brought back to the ground by Owl. Sora and Pooh find Roo in a hole after Pooh falls into it, and find Eeyore later down the path, whose tail is knocked down from a tree that Pooh, being chased by bees, runs in to. Tigger's attention is captured when Pooh is taught by Sora to bounce on tree stumps in a similar to formation to Tigger.  


====Hunny Slider====
Shortly afterwards, Sora and Pooh are bombarded by Rabbit's cabbages, which come rolling down the hill. Sora knocks the cabbages into a stack with the Keyblade, which causes Rabbit to appear. Rabbit explains that he tried rolling the cabbages down the path, since someone had broken the cart he had planned to use to bring them down. Coincidentally, it was Sora and Pooh who broke this cart. Sora and Pooh soon afterwards arrive at the end of the path, with all of Pooh's friends found. The two say their parting words, and Sora leaves to continue climbing to the top of Castle Oblivion.
You play this mini-game by talking to Rabbit.
In this minigame, your objective is to obtain as many droplets of "Hunny" as possible. If you hit an object and drop Pooh, you must use a reaction command to retreive him. This can be avoided only once with a grace that you receive from using a reaction command when Gopher comes into view.
There are several different sections, one is a regular woodland area, another a jumble of words on a page, another a snowy mountain, and the last, a downhill slope.


====Balloon Bounce====
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
To play this mini-game, talk to Tigger at Kanga's house.
[[File:100 Acre Wood KHII 3.png|thumb|150px|The book after it has been attacked by Heartless in ''Kingdom Hearts II''.]]
In this mini-game, your objective is to bounce, using reaction commands, from the trampoline, to the balloons hovering above.
When Merlin moves to Hollow Bastion, he takes the book with him. When Sora returns, he excitedly enters the book to check up on his friends. While he is greeting Pooh, he is suddenly ejected from the book as the Heartless try to steal it. During the battle to recover the book, it is damaged from the claws of a [[Soldier]] stealing it. Upon return, Sora finds Pooh with severe amnesia, unable to remember him and all of his other friends. Merlin checks the book, discovering the Heartlesss torn out the pages and scattered them across the worlds again.
Each balloon drops Hunny and increases your score, and the variation of how much Hunny you receive depends on the color and size of the balloon.
You have three tries to get as high a score as possible. Each try is deducted every time you fall back onto the first level trampoline.


====The Expotition====
Sora then goes out to find Torn Pages which slowly restore Pooh's memory of his friends while continuing his quest to find [[Riku]] and [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]]. Everyone chips in to try curing Pooh's amnesia (with no success), while Sora meets [[Kanga]] and [[Gopher]] along the way. As the Torn Pages are returned, Pooh remembers his friends bit by bit after each jogs his memory with a trait he knows them for, including Sora. Shortly after fully repairing the book, Sora admits that he has to leave again, but reassures Pooh that they will always be in each other's hearts. Once all five Torn Pages have been located, the book's cover repairs itself with; a new illustration of Sora and Pooh sitting on Starry Hill together takes the place of the old one.
This Mini-game requires probably the most strategy out of all of the sequel mini-games. To start this mini-game, talk to Kanga in the cave mouth.
What you must do is, with Roo, Piglet, Eeyore and Tigger, navigate your party through a booby-trapped cave filled with falling rocks, which can be avoided by halting your party at the right moment with a reaction command, [[Honey Bee]]s, which you must whack with the [[keyblade]] to disperse, and slippery ice, which you should halt all movement on when it starts to shine.
Your score in this game is based solely upon time, but with a catch. You must watch your partie's "courage bar", which decreases as time goes by and also when you fail to keep them out of danger. In the event your Courage bar decreaes, the party starts to run in all different directions, and you must calm them down using a reaction command. If you do not hurry and calm them down, characters will get out of sight and you must track them down to continue. The latter proveing much harder when Piglet or Roo run out of sight.
You finish by approaching Pooh, who is always in the same crystal acolve in the cave.


====Honey Pot====
{{Canon|If the final cutscene in the 100 Acre Wood is skipped, the cover will remain in its damaged state despite the book otherwise being restored.|width=85%}}
You can play this mini-game by talking to Pooh on the top of Starry Hill. It is played on Starry Hill, your main objective being to first gain enough power, which slides quickly up and down on a bar, and once your power is set, you will whirl around in a speed relative to the power bar, which gradullay decreases as you spin. A good idea would be to choose the right moment during the whirl to hit the hunny pot directly in the direction of the river. It is the last minigame that is played in this world in Kingdom Hearts II. It is a classic scene from the movie. Your main score is based upon how far the hunny pot is tossed.


==Torn Pages==
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
Torn Pages are, as the name suggests, pages that have been torn from the book, by the Heartless, and scattered throughout the various worlds. Each page corresponds to a certain minigame that can be played while visiting the main area of the world. Once all minigames have been completed, the heart of the "world" in the book will be locked. Only one of the torn pages, which is aquired via the storyline, is actually required in order to proceed with the game, the rest are strictly optional in terms of completing the game and are only needed if one wishes to unlock the hidden movie.
Due to Xehanort attempting to turn Sora into one of his vessels, the book lost its connection to Sora's heart, rendering the illustration blank once again.<ref>'''''Kingdom Hearts III'', Jiminy's Journal:''' "Since the last time he'd seen Pooh, Sora had nearly become Xehanort's vessel. What other connections had been broken in the process?"</ref> Unaware of what caused the book cover to go blank, [[Merlin]] brought this to Sora's attention, leading to him heading into the book to find out what happened. Reuniting with his old friends and a new one called [[Lumpy]], Sora is surprised to hear Pooh say he's home. Rabbit explains he needs help harvesting, leading to everyone chipping in to help. Once done, Pooh explains that one day he felt Sora leave his heart; Sora reassures him of their friendship, but confirms to himself that their connection has indeed become weaker.

Back outside the book, a new illustration of Sora and Pooh sitting next to each other appeared. Sora exits, telling Donald and Goofy that the reason the previous illustration vanished was because 'something' happened to make him disappear from Pooh's heart.

The 100 Acre Wood, also written as the Hundred Acre Wood, is a world based on the fictional locale of author A. A. Milne and Disney's twenty-second animated feature, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. The world is contained within an old book that Merlin keeps with him, and as Sora collects Torn Pages, the lost areas of the world are revealed as the story is retold.

In Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II, and Kingdom Hearts III, the 100 Acre Wood is a world within a world, being entered through the Merlin's book in Traverse Town, Radiant Garden, and Twilight Town, respectively. In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, the 100 Acre Wood is only playable through the Command Board.

Due to the peaceful atmosphere and downplay of violence in 100 Acre Wood, Sora's "Attack" command is changed to "Hit" or "Strike" while in this world.

Settings and Areas[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

A map of the 100 Acre Wood.

As Sora enters the 100 Acre Wood (100エーカーの森 100 Ēkā no Mori?, lit. "Forest of 100 Acres") he'll find himself on a map leading to the world's other areas. To unlock the world's locations Sora has to collect all of the book's pages. Upon his first visit only one area is available, the Wood: Meadow (草原 Sōgen?, lit. "Grassland"), where Sora meets Winnie the Pooh. It's a small meadow surrounded by trees, scattered with a few flowers and rocks, whose primary feature is a hollow, overturned log which Winnie the Pooh often uses as a seat. The next area contains Pooh's House (プーのいえ Pū no Ie?), where Sora meets the wise Owl. It is a humble cottage built into the roots of a large tree, standing alongside a meandering forest path. In the grass behind the cottage are five pots of honey which track Sora's progress in obtaining the Cheer ability; when Sora has completed the required objective in one of the five involved mini-games, the pot is filled with honey. Pooh keeps a sign reading "Mr. Sanders" above the door, as well as a bell and a note reading "RNIG ALSO",[sic] and has left a small cooking fire with a log to sit on directly below it. Through the door is Pooh's Room (プーのへや Pū no Heya?), a spartan room with a chair, a table, a bed, a window, a mirror, some clocks and paintings of honeypots, two cupboards filled with honeypots, and many honeypots laying about.

Artwork of Rabbit's House.

The first Torn Page to be restored contains the Hunny Tree (ハチミツの木 Hachimitsu no Ki?), where Sora and Pooh find Piglet. It is an immense English Oak tree on a small knoll, filled with cavities and beehives. The knoll also holds a small pond and another hollow log, where Piglet hides. Sora can play the mini-game, Pooh's Hunny Hunt from this location. The second Torn Page contains Rabbit's House (ラビットのいえ Rabitto no Ie?) and Rabbit's Room, where Sora meets both Rabbit and Tigger. Like Pooh, Rabbit lives in a cottage built into the roots of a tree, which stands above a small field of cabbages, pumpkins, and carrots crossed by a tiny stream. Sora has to protect the vegetables in the Block Tigger mini-game. Rabbit's home is neater and tidier than Pooh's, with a respectable mailbox, clothesline, and gutter pipe, as well as a rabbithole out the back with a sign reading "RABBIT'S HOWSE".[sic] The third Torn Page contains the Wood: Hill ( Oka?, lit. "Hill"), near the Meadow, where Sora rescues Eeyore. It is a medium-sized bluff standing above a running brook, crossed by a wooden beam bridge. On top of the bluff is another large oak, from which Pooh's swing hangs, and is where the Pooh's Swing mini-gane is activated. Across the brook is Eeyore's "house", a tiny lean-to made of sticks. The fourth Torn Page contains the Bouncing Spot (ティガーの遊び場 Tigā no Asobiba?, lit. "Tigger's Playground"), where Tigger and Roo spend their time. It is a clearing in the middle of the woods, filled with tree stumps and a seesaw. An immense honeypot sits on the center-most stump, and many Rare Nuts hang from the surrounding trees. Sora can play the mini-game Tigger's Giant Pot at this area.

The final Torn Page contains the Muddy Path (どろんこ道 Doronko Michi?), a winding forest trail where each of Pooh's friends has gotten lost once again. The bottom-most portion is a small moody ravine underneath the trees, with a small hollow thicket of brush at its middle. At the end of a glen is a well from which very strong winds blow, adjacent to several burrows. Above the well is a hollow log crossing the sides of the ravine, and the trees hold a few beehives. There are several geraniums throughout the ravine, where Pooh can find butterflies to carry him around. At this location, Sora has to help Pooh find all his friends in the Pooh's Muddy Path mini-game.

The Keyhole for 100 Acre Woods is the book's lock and is sealed once Sora has completed all stories.

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories[edit]

In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Sora visits a memory based version of the 100 Acre Woods. The world is reduced to a long path through the woods, with a hollow, overturned log in each end of the map, and some tree stumps along the way. Sora quickly meet up with Pooh which prompts the world's mini-game: get Pooh to the exit while finding all of his lost friends. Once they find each of Pooh's friends they'll give Sora a reward. The mini-game is also a great place to collect Moogle Points.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, the world is split up into multiple rooms along a path, with most of the rooms featuring a mini-games. The first area is Pooh Bear's House (プーのいえ Pū no Ie?) and where. The next area is Rabbit's House (ラビットのいえ Rabitto no ie?), which contains Rabbit and the Veggie Panic mini-games. Hunny Tree (ハチミツの木 Hachimitsu no Ki?) contains Owl and the Balloon Glider mini-game, while Tigger's Playground (ティガーの遊び場 Tiggā no Asobiba?) contains Tigger, Roo, the Tigger's Jump-a-Thon mini-game, and the only treasure chest of this world, the Spellbinder Card, which requires Glide or Superglide to reach. The Muddy Road (どろんこ道 Doronko Michi?) contains Eeyore, as well as the Whirlwind Plunge and Bumble-Rumble mini-games. Finally, the Fields (草原 Sōgen?, lit. "Meadow") contain a save point and the world exit.

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

Sora traversing the Spooky Cave in search of Pooh.

Kingdom Hearts II retains a few of the previous locations in the 100 Acre Wood, while also introducing new ones. When Sora enters the book he'll arrive at a page simply called The Hundred Acre Wood (100エーカーの森 100 Ēkā no Mori?, lit. "Forest of 100 Acres"), from which he can access the book's other pages. The book's first location is Pooh Bear's House (「プーの家」のおはなし "Pū no Ie" no Ohanashi?, lit. "The Story of Pooh's House") which differs from the first game by the passage at the end being covered up by bushes, and his door blocked by empty honey pots.

A new addition that comes with the first Torn Page is Piglet's House (「ピグレットの家」のおはなし "Piguretto no Ie" no Ohanashi?, lit. "The Story of Piglet's House"), which is a large oak on top of a hill with a great view of the rest of the woods. His house's got a tiny door and a tiny mailbox, and huge sign saying "TRESPASSERS WILL"[sic]. To save Piglet - who's been taken by the wind - Sora has to play the A Blustery Rescue mini-game. The second Torn Page brings Sora back to Rabbit's House ( 「ラビットの家」のおはなし Rabitto no Ie no Ohanashi?, lit. "The Story of Rabbit's House"). This time Rabbit's house can't be accessed and is blocked by flower pots. It's also where the Hunny Slider mini-game can be accessed which takes Sora and Pooh on a journey through the 100 Acre Woods and several of its pages. The third Torn Page contains Kanga's House (「カンガの家」のおはなし "Kanga no Ie" no Ohanashi?, lit. "The Story of Kanga's House") and it's located close to a river where the mini-game Balloon Bounce occurs. Outside her house is also an open area filled with a lot of cardboard boxes.

The fourth Torn Page leads to the maze-like The Spooky Cave (「おばけ洞窟」のおはなし "Obake Dōkutsu" no Ohanashi?, lit. "The Story of The Haunted Cave"); a dark cavern with patches of icy floors and generally filled with blue crystals. In the mini-game The Expotition, Sora has to navigate the cave in order to find Pooh.

The final Torn Page opens access to Starry Hill (「星空の丘」のおはなし "Hoshizora no Oka" no Ohanashi?, lit. "The Story of The Starry-Skied Hill"), which is the same area as Wood: Hill from the first game, but set during the night. From here Sora can play The Hunny Pot mini-game.

minimaps

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

In Kingdom Hearts III, the world has been significantly scaled down compared to previous appearances. The only part of the world that can be accessed is Rabbit's House (ラビットの家 Rabitto no Ie?), where the entirety of the plot takes place, and where all three mini-games can be found. Like in Kingdom Hearts II, Sora can only explore Rabbit's garden, but with the house itself not being explorable. Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Roo, Lumpy, and, of course, Rabbit all reside in this area.

Story[edit]

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep[edit]

Rabbit, before almost being crushed by a pumpkin.

When Merlin drops the 100 Acre Wood book while walking home, Terra picks it up and returns it to him, who says he has never seen it before. He leaves it in his house for Terra, and later invites Aqua and Ventus in to read it when they pass by. After it is returned, the three main characters can read it to unlock their hidden powers, visualized as the Hunny Pot Board.

Between Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts[edit]

Merlin continued to hold on to the book for Terra, but over the decade the book started to fall apart with even the cover illustration fading away. During his many travels, Merlin ultimately lost five pages from the books across the worlds, causing the Hunny Tree, the Muddy Path, Rabbit's House, the Starry Hill and Tigger's Bouncing Spot to vanish from the 100 Acre Wood, along with many of its inhabitants. Merlin brought the book to Cid in Traverse Town to repair the book, but ultimately the world inside could only be restored by returning the missing pages to the book.

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

Sora observes the book.

Cid first gives the book to Sora to give to Merlin, who tells Sora that there is a world within the book. He mentions that Sora needs to collect Torn Pages throughout the worlds until he finds and seals the 100 Acre Wood's Keyhole. When Sora first goes into the book, he meets Winnie the Pooh, who has lost sight of his friends; only Owl is left in the book with him.

Sora collects the missing pages from Agrabah, Monstro, Atlantica and Halloween Town, as well as from Pongo and Perdita for rescuing 51 of their 99 Puppies. The pages restore the book bit by bit and returning the other inhabitants home. Along the way, he meets Piglet, Rabbit, Tigger, Eeyore and Roo, helping resolve problems for them and helping Pooh reunite with them. After helping them find each after getting lost in the Muddy Path, Sora joins them for stargazing. Deciding it was time to resume his search for Riku and Kairi, Sora said good-bye to his new friends, promising to return. As a result of their new friendship, the blank book cover magically gained an illustration of Sora, Pooh, Tigger and Piglet out for a walk; the keyhole on the clasp also was sealed.

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories[edit]

The 100 Acre Wood appears in Sora's second set of World Cards, and can be accessed on the seventh, eighth, ninth, or tenth floor of Castle Oblivion. When Sora enters the world, he finds Pooh all alone, and decides to go down the path with the teddy bear in order to find his lost friends. Upon going down the path, Sora and Pooh find Rabbit picking up cabbages, and get Owl's attention by having Pooh float high in the air with a bundle of balloons, brought back to the ground by Owl. Sora and Pooh find Roo in a hole after Pooh falls into it, and find Eeyore later down the path, whose tail is knocked down from a tree that Pooh, being chased by bees, runs in to. Tigger's attention is captured when Pooh is taught by Sora to bounce on tree stumps in a similar to formation to Tigger.

Shortly afterwards, Sora and Pooh are bombarded by Rabbit's cabbages, which come rolling down the hill. Sora knocks the cabbages into a stack with the Keyblade, which causes Rabbit to appear. Rabbit explains that he tried rolling the cabbages down the path, since someone had broken the cart he had planned to use to bring them down. Coincidentally, it was Sora and Pooh who broke this cart. Sora and Pooh soon afterwards arrive at the end of the path, with all of Pooh's friends found. The two say their parting words, and Sora leaves to continue climbing to the top of Castle Oblivion.

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

The book after it has been attacked by Heartless in Kingdom Hearts II.

When Merlin moves to Hollow Bastion, he takes the book with him. When Sora returns, he excitedly enters the book to check up on his friends. While he is greeting Pooh, he is suddenly ejected from the book as the Heartless try to steal it. During the battle to recover the book, it is damaged from the claws of a Soldier stealing it. Upon return, Sora finds Pooh with severe amnesia, unable to remember him and all of his other friends. Merlin checks the book, discovering the Heartlesss torn out the pages and scattered them across the worlds again.

Sora then goes out to find Torn Pages which slowly restore Pooh's memory of his friends while continuing his quest to find Riku and King Mickey. Everyone chips in to try curing Pooh's amnesia (with no success), while Sora meets Kanga and Gopher along the way. As the Torn Pages are returned, Pooh remembers his friends bit by bit after each jogs his memory with a trait he knows them for, including Sora. Shortly after fully repairing the book, Sora admits that he has to leave again, but reassures Pooh that they will always be in each other's hearts. Once all five Torn Pages have been located, the book's cover repairs itself with; a new illustration of Sora and Pooh sitting on Starry Hill together takes the place of the old one.

This information is based on alternate scenes or materials and is not considered canon within the overall plot of the series.
If the final cutscene in the 100 Acre Wood is skipped, the cover will remain in its damaged state despite the book otherwise being restored.

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

Due to Xehanort attempting to turn Sora into one of his vessels, the book lost its connection to Sora's heart, rendering the illustration blank once again.[2] Unaware of what caused the book cover to go blank, Merlin brought this to Sora's attention, leading to him heading into the book to find out what happened. Reuniting with his old friends and a new one called Lumpy, Sora is surprised to hear Pooh say he's home. Rabbit explains he needs help harvesting, leading to everyone chipping in to help. Once done, Pooh explains that one day he felt Sora leave his heart; Sora reassures him of their friendship, but confirms to himself that their connection has indeed become weaker.

Back outside the book, a new illustration of Sora and Pooh sitting next to each other appeared. Sora exits, telling Donald and Goofy that the reason the previous illustration vanished was because 'something' happened to make him disappear from Pooh's heart. When Sora expresses concern to Merlin about losing his friends, the wizard assures him that connections between hearts which have been lost can always be found again.

Characters[edit]

  • Absent but mentioned characters are Owl's cousin Alphonse[3] and his uncle Albert.[4]
  • Christopher Robin's name briefly appears among the various paragraphs seen in the Hunny Slider mini-game, specifically the one taken from "In Which Piglet Is Entirely Surrounded by Water", chapter 9 of the original Winnie-the-Pooh book by A. A. Milne.
