50 free Kingdom Hearts trivia questions with answers. Kingdom Hearts began as a hallway pitch between a Square producer and a Disney executive, and grew into a crossover saga that has shipped tens of millions of copies. This quiz covers the whole series so far: the 2002 original, the handheld chapters, Kingdom Hearts III and the upcoming Kingdom Hearts IV. Expect questions on Sora, Riku and Kairi, the Heartless and Nobodies, Organization XIII, Roxas and Xion, the Final Fantasy cameos, the score and theme songs, and the English voice cast behind the heroes and villains. Easy questions suit anyone who has finished one game; the expert tier is for fans who know the lore of Birth by Sleep and Union Cross. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the games and characters, so the trivia here matches the games rather than fan rumour.
