A turn-based RPG of no small renown, Chrono Trigger was first released for the SNES in 1995. It revolves around Crono, a small-town lad who's swept up in an adventure to save the world from a parasitic creature with foul designs for the planet. Popular from the get-go, Chrono Trigger has long been heralded as one of the best RPGs of all time, and has been re-released multiple times, both as a physical game and as a digital download for several different consoles. It also received a slight reimagining on the Nintendo DS, with additional dungeons and story content added onto the original game.

This walkthrough will focus on the PC version of Chrono Trigger, using its unique script and naming for items and locations. Most of the changes from the SNES to the later versions are self-explanatory when you pick up an item or reach a certain place, but for the sake of clarification, Chronopedia has a comprehensive list of name changes between the two versions here.
