Whirlwind Plunge gameplay.
Whirlwind Plunge is the fourth minigame in the 100 Acre Wood in Re:Chain of Memories, accessible after completing Tigger's Jump-a-Thon. Sora and Pooh started the minigame by jumping onto the wind that was being blown out of a well, which launched them high into the sky, and upon landing they accidentally managed to find Roo.
Reaching the ground counts as completing the minigame and lets you receive the Mega-Ether card with a value of 5, whereas you need 2,400 points to earn a Gravity card with a value of 9 (but only after completing it once). Earning 2,000 points grants you the bronze trophy and achievement Sky Diver in the 1.5 ReMIX version.
Gameplay[]
The goal of the minigame is to reach the ground together with Pooh, with no real way to fail other than losing out on points and the related reward. Sora can move around while falling, and use the button depicted on-screen to perform a roll along with Pooh. Rolling can be used to quickly dash around and also grants you invulnerability from all the debris that is being blown upwards. Being hit by debris will separate Pooh from Sora, making them unable to pick up prizes for points until they are reunited again (with the Reaction Command button).
Prizes are placed in various symbols that form long and curving tunnels, although you can be guaranteed to grab all of them as long as you fly through the center of the formations. Each prize is worth 1 point each, for a total of 2489, while the final large prize at the end is worth 11 points, for a total of 2,500. Debris comes in the form of branches, honey combs, and large hollow trunks. The latter are the most dangerous, due to how they spin around in mid-air coupled with their size. However, since the prizes and debris in the minigame are always in the same place it is possible to memorize their paths and thus achieve a high score through trial and error.
