Chrono Trigger update feed

" Creating a Top 100 RPGs list was quite the challenge, but placing Chrono Trigger at the very top of it was surprisingly easy. Over 20 years after Square's epoch-making epic launched on the SNES, we’re still gobsmacked by its originality and ingenuity. The seamless transition between the world map full of visible, avoidable enemies and combat was a revelation in a time where most RPGs featured jarring random battles, and even today makes monster encounters a joy instead of a chore. The plucky"

" The classic dream team, a union of devs from Square and Enix, competitors at the time, most notably Hironobu Sakaguchi, the creator of Final Fantasy, and Yuji Horii, the creator of Dragon Quest. Also, art by Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball.The game is themed around time travel, features no random encounters and is awesome. And oh god the soundtrack by Yasunori Mitsuda is lovely! "

"The story starts simplistic, but at some point it becomes good. The battle system has combine attacks and magical attacks are area-of-effect. It is also a fairly easy RPG, which I like. The art and sound are phenomenal. Love the theme of time travel, too. +Story+Art/aesthetics+Atmosphere/charm+Turn-based+No random encounters"
