    This game is the first rpg that I managed to complete 100%, being a very charming and amazing experience. I grew to become attached to the characters as the story progresses, their gameplay was revolutionary for the time and remains very unique at its core. The freedom to direct where to end the story is a way to get more hooked on completing it 100%.

However, the port is bad and very inefficient, it is completely better to play the "SNES" version. Expand

    This is still a classic and still a fantastic game that needs to be played by any and all RPG lovers. The controls can be very, very irritating at times but the core experience, characters and storyline have weathered the storm of porting and still provide as much enjoyment as they ever had. I'm still kind of cheesed-off by the butchering of Frog's script, though.

    This is still the Chrono Trigger fans have come to know and love even despite Square Enix' stubborn refusal to shape its games to suit the iOS platform; this can dampen the experience, but its core still shines through.

    As a game, Chrono Trigger is perfect. As a port, we've seen better.
