Traverse Town
After a long cutscene, Sora wakes up in an alley in Traverse Town, the second game world. There's some room to explore in this area, with two shops and some other notable spots. First, go to the Accessory Shop, run by Cid. Then, head up behind the shop into District 2, where the Heartless are on the prowl.
From here, it's possible to explore several areas, including the Hotel, the Factory, and the house where the Dalmatians live. However, to move the plot forward, just head back to the Accessory Shop, enter, and leave again. Hm, who's this fellow?
BOSS: Leon
Leon is more or less impossible to defeat, but lucky for us, it doesn't matter whether Sora wins or loses. Either way, it's cutscene time, where Leon, Yuffie, and Aerith explain a little more about what's going on in the worlds today. Once that's over, talk to Leon. The Heartless invade, and it's time for a climactic fight.
Go to the District 3, which is accessible via a door in one of the alleys connected to District 2's main square. Sora meets Donald and Goofy there, and it's time for the final boss battle.
BOSS: Guard Armor
Guard Armor follows the several ordinary Heartless soldiers. He has six indepently targetable bits: arms, legs, body, and head. The arms are the most immediately dangerous, so take those out first, then swing for the legs, and finally attack the rest of him to finish him off. His attacks aren't hard to avoid if you stay out of his way with a hit-and-run strategy, and Donald and Goofy have healing items that will make things even easier.
After the battle, the party winds up in the main town square. Here, examine the Blue Trinity for a tutorial on the basics of the Trinity system. It's also worthwhile to check out the item shop run by Donald's nephews -- use your new-found Munny to stock up on Potions and Ethers.
It's worth going to check out Merlin's House at this point, too. In an alley in District 3, there's a door with a flame on it. Shoot it with Fire magic to open the door to Merlin's house, where he and the Fairy Godmother offer a brief magic tutorial. Hidden items can be found there as well.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gummi Ship
After clearing out Traverse Town, head for the main exit to explore other worlds. Traveling between worlds is accomplished via the horrors of the Gummi Ship -- trust us, it may be fun to begin with, but it isn't fun for very long.
From the World Select screen, pick the one to the upper right, with a Battle LV of one star. That's Wonderland, the next area we'll explore.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wonderland
Follow the White Rabbit. No, really. Follow him to the door, and talk to the door, which naturally won't let Sora and company through. Instead, push the bed out of the way, and then drink the whatever-it-is on the table to shrink down. Now, enter the side door.
Here, Alice is on trial for an attempt on the Queen's life. Sora has to gather evidence to prove her innocence -- most of that is in the Lotus Forest, through the exit on the left side of the Queen's court. Evidence-gathering tips:
Footprints: These are in the grove just to the right of the entrance to the forest. Antenna: These are in the far back of the forest, atop a low platform. Stench: Climb the mushroom platforms in the back of the forest, heading left to the tall tree. Enter the door in the trunk, and Sora lands on the stove in the kitchen, where the Stench sits in a treasure chest. Claw Marks: This is the hard part. Go all the way back to the Lotus Forest. On your left, there's a yellow flower -- give it a Potion and Sora will grow bigger. Thus enlarged, jump on the tree stump by the entrance, which raises a platform. Then, turn around and grab the seed that sits high in the tree. Eating it will shrink Sora back down. Go to the grove to the right of the entrance and climb up the mushroom platforms, which leads to a bridge of platforms to the right-hand corner nearest the entrance. This leads to the top of a faucet. Jump from there to a shelf, to Sora's right, and there sit the Claw Marks.
Receive your congratulations from the Cheshire Cat, along with the Blizzard spell, and head back to the Queen's court to exonerate Alice. Of course, things don't work out that way...
BOSS: Card Soldiers
The shell game before this fight determines whether or not Donald or Goofy has to sit out the battle. The more evidence collected, the better the chance of fighting at full strength. Collect all four and there should be no problem.
The soldiers here are a mere hindrance. The real target is the tower, which is holding up Alice's cage. Smash the three wheels around the tower, and then the tower itself. Don't overlook the Card Soldiers, but it shouldn't be hard to just let Donald and Goofy deal with those while Sora attacks the real target.
After the battle, go to the very back of the Lotus Forest and enter the door towards the right side of the back wall. This leads to the Tea Party Garden. On the way, more powerful Heartless will attack, including a Large Body which must be attacked from behind. From the Tea Party, take the door to the Bizarre Room. Light the two lamps here and take the exit on the right side for the Queen's Castle (grab the Dalmatians on the way). Finally, return to the dining room, talk to the Cheshire Cat on the table, and prepare for a fight.
BOSS: Trick Master
This guy can be a headache, because his vulnerable points are high off the ground. Target them with Fire magic, and attack when he's dizzied and slumps to the ground. It's also possible to hit him with air combos by jumping off the table. Luckily, his attacks are mostly easy to avoid -- he swings his torches low and close, and occasionally throws a homing fireball. The prize for victory is an Ifrit Horn
After this, Sora seals the Wonderland world lock and the party receives a special Gummi piece, the Navi-G piece. Head for the save point and enter the Gummi Ship to proceed to a new world.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gummi Ship
Now, there are two options. Head back for Traverse Town and Olympus Coliseum on the other side, or go straight to Deep Jungle. The latter is quicker, but the former offers an opportunity to stock up on items. Pick whichever you like -- the walkthroughs for either area are the same at this point.
