World cards are a type of map card in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories which can transform floors of Castle Oblivion into entire worlds made out of Sora or Riku's memories. These cards are usually created by members of the Organization, but DiZ and Naminé are both able to make cards for Riku, and one appears on its own to King Mickey. Naminé is even able to fashion these cards into trinkets, as she does for the Riku Replica.

The world cards are not all available immediately; rather, new cards become available once all of the cards currently available have been used. In Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories, the world cards are counted as Journal entries in Jiminy's Journal and the D-Report (with the minor exception of Castle Oblivion in Jiminy's Journal as it is not obtained as a world card).

World cards reappear in Kingdom Hearts coded, where they allow Data-Sora to change the rooms of the digital Castle Oblivion into representations of the worlds he has visited.

Story

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

Marluxia produces the Traverse Town world card, crafted from Sora's memory.

Upon entering Castle Oblivion, Sora, Donald, and Goofy encounter the mysterious figure, who samples Sora's memories and gives him a card for Traverse Town. They encounter the figure again once they reach the 1F Exit Hall, but when Axel appears, the figure gives him a number of cards and leaves him to test Sora. After defeating Axel, Sora receives the cards for Agrabah, Olympus Coliseum, Wonderland, Monstro and Halloween Town. As Axel and Larxene observe the group reach the sixth floor, Larxene declares it to be her turn to face Sora, and Axel gives her more cards. After she is defeated in the 6F Exit Hall, she tauntingly gives Sora the cards for Atlantica, Neverland, Hollow Bastion, and the 100 Acre Wood.

In the meantime, Riku awakens in a strange place, and a voice offers a way out by presenting him with the card to Hollow Bastion. When Riku takes hold of it, the card takes him to the B12F Entrance Hall. After leaving the floor, Riku is confronted by and fights Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, who gives him cards for Traverse Town, Agrabah, Monstro, and Neverland, as well as providing Riku with the use of Dark Mode. After Riku reaches the B7F Entrance Hall, Ansem appears again, and he gives Riku the cards to Olympus Coliseum, Wonderland, Halloween Town and Atlantica, challenging him to continue resisting the darkness.

When Vexen brings the Riku Replica to the upper floors, Axel gives him the Destiny Islands card, which Naminé uses to change the replica's memories to think he is the real Riku. She also transforms the card into the form of a good luck charm.

Vexen gives Sora the Twilight Town card when he is defeated in the 10F Exit Hall, saying he made it from the memories locked in the other side of Sora's heart.

After fighting the Riku Replica for the third time, in the 11F Exit Hall, the replica drops his good luck charm, which transforms back into the Destiny Islands card in Sora's hand.

When Riku reaches the B3F Entrance Hall, Zexion gives him the Destiny Islands card. Mickey Mouse finally catches up to Riku in the B2F Entrance Hall, and he gives him the Twilight Town card, saying it led him from the Realm of Darkness to where Riku was. At the Exit Hall, DiZ gives Riku a Castle Obvlivion card to draw out Ansem from within his heart.

Kingdom Heart coded

Upon reaching Castle Oblivion, Data-Sora encounters a hooded figure who gives him the Destiny Islands card and tells him to use it to find the "truth that sleeps". After Sora clears the room, the figure taunts him about his lost memories and gives him the cards for Traverse Town, Wonderland, Olympus Coliseum, Agrabah and Hollow Bastion.

After Data-Sora has used all of the cards, the figure confronts him again and engages him in battle. After Sora defeats him and accepts the burden of hurt into his heart, the figure gives him the Castle Oblivion card, which leads him to Data-Naminé's room.

The card the hooded man gave us took us to Traverse Town, where we were reunited with Leon, Yuffie, and our other friends.

Leon acted like he'd forgotten Sora, but for whatever reason still knew his name. I guess his memory got mixed up somehow.

Aerith sensed that the town and everyone there was a product of Sora's memories. It may sound crazy, but I think she was right.

But even after we bested the Trickmaster, the Queen refused to believe that Alice was innocent.

Fortunately, Alice's quick thinking pacified the Queen and no one had to lose their head.

Aladdin brought the magic lamp back from the Cave of Wonders, hoping for a chance to meet Jasmine, Princess of Agrabah.

Inside the lamp was Genie, who would grant three wishes to the lamp's bearer.

Aladdin hoped to become a prince so he could see Jasmine whenever he wanted. But he used two wishes battling the Heartless, and then Jafar stole the lamp.

Jafar turned into a genie, but we defeated him and Aladdin got the lamp back.

Instead of becoming a prince, Aladdin used his last wish to set Genie free, and decided he wanted Jasmine to know him as he really is.

Intrigued, Sora went with Jack to look for Sally, who had nabbed the potion because she was scared of what it could do.

Oogie Boogie swiped the potion and downed it in a single gulp. But his true memories drove him mad with fear.

What if true memories do that to everyone's heart? Scary.

But Pinocchio felt sad about running away from home and putting his father in danger, so he set off to find a way out of Monstro.

After a run-in with a big Heartless, Pinocchio had a great idea: Why not make a commotion and get Monstro to spit us out?

With our help, the plan worked, and Pinocchio and Geppetto escaped safely.

Ariel was so worried, she stole the trident for Ursula, but it was all a trick—Ursula had Flounder all along.

With the trident's power Ursula became a giant, but we stopped her and Ariel resolved to apologize to her father, the king.

Meanwhile, we were just trying to get off the ship. Hook caught us on the deck, but Peter came back and bailed us out.

In the end, Peter and Wendy said their farewells, but promised to meet again one day.

The Beast came to rescue Belle from Maleficent's clutches, but to his dismay, Belle acted coldly and would not go with him.

We felt bad for him, so we went to see Belle. It turned out she was only pretending to be cruel, to keep her heart and the love within safe from Maleficent.

But faced with a choice, Belle couldn't hide how she felt for the Beast, and Maleficent stole her heart.

Together with the Beast, we took care of Maleficent and restored Belle's heart.

Trivia

  • Deep Jungle was removed from Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories as the estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs did not allow Disney and Square Enix to reuse the story, although it was included in early planning for the game.
  • Despite not being obtained as a World Card, Castle Oblivion appears for the final floor of Sora's "World Cards" menu in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, and uses Riku's Castle Oblivion card as its icon.
  • During cutscenes in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, the Destiny Islands World Card depicts the world's Kingdom Hearts II icon, although the correct Kingdom Hearts icon is used on the item itself.
  • These cards may be the mechanism by which the Organization takes Sora, Donald, and Goofy's memories, and may have actually been created by Naminé. Except for in Traverse Town, Sora, Goofy, and Donald seem to have lost all their memories of each world they visit before they enter them, and the cards are said to be made by using their memories. However, they were able to at least recognize that they've been to each world, as they comment in Twilight Town that they don't recognize it.
