So should I just go 1.5 --> 2.5 --> and then 2.8? Is that the most efficient way to do it?
1.5 actually contains Chain of Memories! But yeah, that's the general order. I'll go into more detail in a second. The Remixes also contain cutscenes for two games - if you have them on DS you might decide to play them instead, but that's your call.
So, here's the order with the compilation you have in the brackets:
KH1 (1.5)
Chain of Memories (1.5)
KH2 (2.5)
358/2 Days (1.5 cutscenes OR play it on your DS)
Birth By Sleep (2.5)
re:coded (2.5 cutscenes OR play it on your DS OR just skip it because it really brings nothing into the series)
Dream Drop Distance (2.8)
Unchained Chi (2.8 cutscenes OR wait until the game comes out here on mobile)
Birth By Sleep - A Fragmentary passage (2.8)
