Crono Trigger
First Hour
SUMMARY
"Crono Trigger" is a role playing game on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, SNES, where the main character, Crono, is a young teenager with flaming red hair. The adventure starts with Crono attending a fair where he meets a girl name “Marle”, who is actually Princess Nadia. Crono and Marle become testers for Lucca's new invention, the telepod. The telepod malfunctions, sending the trio back into the past where there was a war.
GAMEPLAY
Although the game lacks in graphics compared to today’s detailed animation, Crono Trigger makes up for that with an appealing storyline and game play. The story is the typical male hero saves the princess, yet it never fails to capture the player’s attention. Though what kept me playing this game was how the quickly everything progress. For example, the battle system, instead of encountering battles randomly then loading the battle screen, you can see the monsters on screen and you can choose to fight or avoid the battle. For a limited amount of space on the SNES, this game made it feel as if it were alive because monsters actually interact with each other. Aside from the battle system the story itself was going at a rapid pace. Which is great because games today make the dungeons long and tedious. Crono Trigger keeps it long enough to make you feel challenged but short enough that it doesn’t become a chore for a college student who doesn’t have enough time to enjoy an RPG.
While playing Crono Trigger, a floor mate of mine came over. Normally a game would require your full wrapped attention. While I was playing Crono Trigger however, I was able to keep up a conversation with my floor mate as if I wasn’t playing a game at all. I felt relieved because he was also able to join in by watching me play without getting bored or angry that I was playing a game while talking to him. I feel that this is a plus for Crono Trigger because I don’t have to cut off my friends for a game.
It is to early for me to decide whether this game lives up to it’s hype, but I can definitely see why this is considered a classic.
