Hey guys! My second review! YAY! This time it's on the game Chrono Trigger. It's basically the perfect game. Even if you don't like video games, you will love Chrono Trigger! This game is legendary! Dubbed by many, myself included, the best game in history, it was made by Squaresoft, who made some of the best games in their time. Anyway, here we go.
The graphics in the game are amazing! The Super Nintendo Entertainment System games almost always have great graphics anyway, but the graphics in here mesh together more than perfectly. It's definitely one of those games that people who only play the games today that only focus on graphics would still love. From the simple moves like Crono hitting an enemy with his katana, to the giant moves like Dark Matter and Luminaire, the graphics are perfect for each moment.
I don't even know how to begin on the sound. Chrono Trigger is famous for if nothing else, the music! The music in here even earned Chrono Trigger a spot on Screwattack's Top Ten SNES Games list. From the songs like Peaceful Days to the songs like Boss Battle 2, from A Shot of Crisis to Corridors of Time, the music never gets annoying, with each one fitting the mood perfectly. Changing songs at perfect moments to keep the mood adds to this. Each of the character's personal theme songs are phenomenal, as well. I wish the rating didn't stop at ten, because this more than deserves a score of at least fifty!
In terms to addictiveness, it's really... Well, actually, let me tell you this: I've played and beaten the game well over fifteen times. But that aside, the addictive levels of the game are surprising. This game will always bring you back for more. Period. End of story.
The story line is impossible to describe in words. This is easily the most original story in gaming history. Possibly history in general. The game's story is impossible to not love. It gets bizarre at times, admittedly, but that's what makes the game all the more better! You don't want a game so simple you understand every single word spoken, do you?
The depth of the game is so deep it makes the Marianas Trench look like a crack in a chocolate chip cookie. Yeah. That's how deep it is. The game has a ton of places to explore, a level ninety-nine cap, seven different time periods, and seven different playable characters. How much more deep can you get? Incredible enemies, unique bosses with even more unique strategies, incredibly unique and human(ish) characters that almost anyone can relate to at least one of them, this game's depth can not be beat.
The game is not hard for the most part. The bosses can hold you up at some places, for no reason other than you haven't found a decent enough strategy to defeat it. There are a few places it's easy to get lost in, but there are only like two or three of those. You'll be fine. The game locations though are pretty straightforward. That about sums the game up completely. I guess I'm done. Well, now I'm off to travel through time. See ya!!!!

Huh, maybe I'll give this one a shot after I'm done with the Mother series. Is the CT turn based or real-time?

It's more turn based than anything. It is perpetually at one time of day, it seems like, but you go to different time periods. That's what I meant.
