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.

My son recently started playing, and I realised I only knew the names of half the characters, because I changed their names to my high-school friends.

It stands as one of my five favourite games of all time, and I'm an FPS-focused person.

Well, the main character's name is Crono, like the name of the game. The frog is named Frog. The robot is Robo. The rest you will have to memorize!

@ricecooker Because I am a non native English speaker, the character name "Crono" always tripped me, as the game has an "h" in "Chrono".
