Description
Error After 13 long years, the role playing
game of the ages finally returns with Chrono Trigger for the Nintendo DS. This
chapter begins when a newly developed teleportation device malfunctions, and
young Crono must journey through time to rescue a mysterious girl from an
intricate web of past and present perils. Enhanced with Nintendo DS’s dual-
screen presentation, stylus controls, and a host of great new features, this
classic tale returns to a modern, portable platform.And so the Story Goes. . .
Through a chance encounter amid the festivities of Guardia’s Millenial Fair in
Leene Square, the young hero, Crono, meets an adventurous girl named Marle.
The two decide to explore the fair together and soon find themselves at an
exhibition of the Telepod — the latest invention by Crono’s long-time friend,
Lucca. Marle, fearless and brimming with curiosity, volunteers to assist in a
demo. However, an unanticipated malfunction sends her hurtling through a rift
in the dimensions. Taking hold of the girls pendant just before she’s whisked
away, Crono bravely follows in pursuit, but the world into which he emerges is
one of four centuries ago. In Chrono Trigger prepare yourself to journey into
the forgotten past, distant future, and even to the very End of Time.The
Worlds of Past, Present and Future In Chrono Trigger you’ll journey back to
Prehistory (65,000,000 B.C.) where humans and reptiles battle to wipe each
other from existence. Antiquity (12,000 B.C.) is an age where the world is
divided between people whose continent is buried in snow, and the magical
kingdom of Zeal, a highly advanced civilization. The Middle Ages (600 A.D.) is
an era of swords and sorcery, a dark time when the armies of Fiendlord rule
over the land. The Present (1000 A.D.) is the time period in which Crono,
Lucca and Marle live. It is a bright and peaceful age. However, in the Future
(2300 A.D.), an era of despair has taken hold with rogue machines ruling the
world. After the day of the apocalypse in 1999 A.D., the prosperous
civilization of humanity crumbled and the remaining people struggle to stay
alive. And, finally, there remains the End of Time — a place with no era to
call its own. This confluence of time’s streams transcends spatiotemporal
boundaries. It is here at the gravitational center for all temporal flotsam
that Spekkio — the Master of War — serves as your guide on time’s
treacherous roads.Battle Systems and gameplay This game utilizes a revised
version of the groundbreaking Active Time Battle (ATB) System. Chrono Trigger
features exhilarating combat in which the clock is constantly ticking.
Characters must first wait as the ATB gauges charge, and then perform an
action. This makes strategic timing a crucial element in your battle plan. In
addition to standard attacks, each character has an array of special Tech
skills and powerful combos known as Dual and Triple Techs. Cooperate with
other characters to unleash over 50 unique and devastating moves! Chrono
Trigger utilizes great story-telling, interesting characters, action-packed
gameplay, and the unique controls of the Nintendo DS to deliver a fun and
well-rounded role-playing game on a portable platform.
