Monstro: Difference between revisions

Monstro is so enormous that its playable map is bigger than that of some other worlds, such as [[Wonderland]]. If one leaves Monstro and tries to go a different direction, then they will be caught by Monstro again and Monstro will appear twice on the map. Sometimes, attempting to return to Monstro will not work, as Monstro will temporarily leave his spot; [[Goofy]] will express his relief at this and the party will have to come back later.

Monstro has one of the most confusing layouts of any world; it is essentially an interconnecting maze. It takes a lot of patience and a little ingenuity to traverse through Monstro. Many openings open into different parts of the same room, allowing for much confusion of anyone trying to work their way through. As the surfaces in each area look the same, the only visual differences in the Chambers are the ledges, the treasures, and the occasional Barrel and debris found in them. In addition, the Chambers are marked only with numbers and are not traveled through in numerical order. Finally, Monstro defies anatomy as it is known, so natural assumptions such as going "down" to reach his stomach, for example, do not hold (the party has to climb up his throat).

[[Sora]] and his party enter through the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Mouth}}'''|口|Kuchi}}, the largest room in the world. Here, among the piles of wood and shipwrecks, the party will come across [[Geppetto]] and [[Pinocchio]], as well as the world's [[Save Point]]. Troublesome Pinocchio leads the party down the into the whale's innards.

In ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', there are extensions coming out of the floor that can be hit or jumped on to gain items. There are also extensions from the walls that can cause damage to Sora or Riku if approached; these can be hit to gain [[HP]] orbs.

In ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', much of Monstro's settings are based directly off the digestive system. The opening area is {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Mouth}}'''|モンストロ:口|Monsutoro: Kuchi}}, similarly designed to its ''Kingdom Hearts'' counterpart. However, the boat where Geppetto resides on is now on the left side of the mouth. Beyond here is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Gullet}}'''|モンストロ:食道|Monsutoro: Shokudō}}, a large room with a number of ledges and numerous piles of wood. Following this is {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Belly}}'''|モンストロ:胃袋|Monsutoro: Ibukuro|lit. Monstro: Stomach"}}, a room with numerous smaller chambers, the largest part of this area has a HP-depleting acidic floor, much like a human stomach would have with {{w|hydrochloric acid}}. After the belly is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Cavity}}'''|モンストロ:腹部|Monsuoro: Fukubu|lit. "Monstro: Abdomen"}}, a large blue-colored room that can be flipped upside down with the numerous uvulas dotting the area, there is also a long-winding path that leads to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Monstro: Bowels}}'''|モンストロ:腸|Monsutoro: Chō}}, a rectangular area that is mostly barren with the exception of two uvulas that allow Riku to flip the room.
