I’ve done just about everything and I’m just about to take on Lavos.

I started playing Chrono Trigger+ because of all the posts I saw on r/sbcgaming. Seeing as how it’s my fav game of all time, I decided to play it again (guesstimating for the 9th time since playing it as a kid).

My notes on my experience this time around.

  • so amazing to be able to take screenshots, like a modern console
  • the menu system still holds up. swapping people out of your party and moving items between party members is very smooth (some of these older games are REALLY bad)
  • I did some fast forwarding to speed up battles. The live battle system makes this a little challenging sometimes
  • the music in Zeal still slaps
  • CT+ has a bar/cafe area in the End of Time not in the original game
  • graphics still look amazing like they did back in the day.

    Oh hey, I just finished Chrono Trigger for the first time on Saturday! I bought a DSi on eBay and this was one of the games I wanted to play the most on it. Cheers!

      What did you think? One of my favorite games of all time. The pre-Lavos time-traveling side-quests are my favorite.

        I honestly was shocked by how well it has held up. If you had told me this was like an indie game released this year I would have believed it.

        I think my highlights were the trial (when I realized the game was keeping track of what I was doing) and the Robo/Fiona mission. I really liked the side-missions as well.
