I'm not talking out of blind nostalgia here, I only first played this game a few years ago on the DS, when it was able to hold its own against far more advanced games like "Final Fantasy XII". "Chrono Trigger" is a magical experience. And "Chrono Trigger" doesn't have random encounters. You can argue that games like "Final Fantasy VI" or "Final Fantasy VII" were actually better games, but they simply do not have the grand vision, the unequivocal balance of tone, difficulty, and story pacing that "Chono Trigger" has. This is the Concorde Moment of the genre, a masterpiece which has not been topped since. This is the classic of classics, a fantastic achievement in 2D RPGs, which I do not think will ever be topped. The craftsmanship of this game is beyond reproach, perfect pacing, excellent sprite-based graphics that hold up even today sixteen years later, a great simple battle system that can be picked up, played, and understood in minutes. If you're looking for an absolutely perfect example of a JRPG, this is it. Despite its cancellation, versions of the game ranging from an alpha to a release candidate have since been leaked onto the internet and can be played through to the end."Chrono Trigger" is one the greatest video games ever made. This cancellation was widely reported in the gaming press, who were largely sympathetic to the project. A few weeks prior to the expected released date, Square Enix sent the developers a cease-and-desist letter, which led to the immediate cancellation of the project. The game reportedly totaled around 35 hours of play time, and had ten alternate endings. The project was in development from 2004–09, with 98% of the game completed. Crimson Echoes concludes by setting up several plot points that were used in Chrono Cross.
The plot includes elements from both official games. It is based five years after the events of Chrono Trigger and features all the playable characters from the original game, who come together across different time periods to fight an enemy attempting to change the past. The game, as a ROM hack, runs on the Chrono Trigger game engine and has gameplay similar to the original.
