by Square Product Development Division 3, Square
Genres:Role-playing (RPG), Adventure
Themes:Open world, Fantasy
Game modes:Single player
Story:CHRONO CROSS, the sequel to the SNES favorite CHRONO TRIGGER, is one of the most ambitious role-playing games ever made. There are over 40 playable characters, each with their back-story, special moves, abilities, and weapons. The story spans two discs and follows the story of Serge, a young man who is able to cross dimensions. Suddenly he is pulled between worlds, trying to figure out his own past at the same time. The graphics are bright and beautiful, utilizing the PlayStation's capabilities to the fullest. The polygonal character models are huge and detailed, and the pre-rendered backgrounds are immaculately detailed. The music is composed and arranged by Yasunori Mitsuda, and features very realistic-sounding synthesizers. The battle system revolves around Elements, which are used to grant magical powers, as well as to summon huge monsters. For anyone that wanted to see the story of CHRONO TRIGGER continue, this is your chance.Show more

This was the very first game that made me so hooked up to the TV (I played on PSX back then) - and the very first one with so unique story of the game's protagonist. Combat system was somewhat tricky to understand and master, but after several hours of using it all was clear, fortunately. The best part of Chrono Cross was the story of every character in the game - and all the twists within the game's plot. A real rollercoaster of emotions I wont forget. I don't want to spoil anything to those, who didn't play the game yet, but there were at least 2 huge shocks for me when playing, and I was like "WTF!?". And the main reason for Chrono Cross to be on GOG is very simple: I think everyone should have the opportunity to play this masterpiece on PC now and in the foreseable future. Without the annoying Internet connection, without compatibility issues, and without being afraid of losing the access to the game. For me Chrono Cross is a real gem and a true masterpiece that I will always hold in my heart.

A magical, surreal Squaresoft rpg. Sequel to the acclaimed Chrono Trigger but with a host of new characters. And I really mean a host. There was a recent remaster. Very beautiful soundtrack. May take a few playthroughs to get what is happening because time travel and their consequences are a thing. Color perception may be pretty important.
