What is Chrono Trigger all about? 

In the event that you are playing Chrono Trigger for the first time, the chances of you losing the first step out of confusion are high. Thus, to ease the situation, here’s what the Chrono Trigger storyline looks like in short:

According to the plot, the Chrono Trigger game series is set in a fictional yet alternative universe (focused on Earth) where Dinosaurs and ancient monsters are still alive. The Player’s character in the game has to travel through time in order to reach its final destination. However, it’s not that easy because there’s only a one-time machine. Furthermore, one has to face many enemies on different steps of the game, which remains unpredictable without the Chrono Trigger Walkthrough. Moreover, resolving quests to obtain weapons, making friends, and gathering allies also remains equally crucial in the game. 

What’s the storyline or back story of the game? 

The plot of the game may seem too easy for the experienced Player. More often than not, each game is about making allies, battling enemies, and resolving quests. However, Chrono triggers hold a hardcore back story. The main characters are Crono and Luca, who is in a fair in the beginning with their father in 1000 AD. However, when their father shows them the playful time machine consequently, Luca and Crono travel back in time and drop in 600 AD. Their friend Marle was the first one to travel back in time. 

Now, the most exciting part of the game is that each character in the game has a backstory. For example, Marle, who travels back in time, finds herself to be a powerful figure called Princess Nadia of Guardia. In total, there are seven mainstream characters in the game. You can deduct two, which are optional if you want the game to be less complicated.

You will also be bewildered to know that Chrono Triggers have multiple endings based on what path the Player has picked? However, each end has one single challenge. And, that challenge is “Lavos,” the villain of the game. He is an alien parasite with, of course, an evil motive in mind to destroy the universe. 

Last but not least, the Chrono trigger walkthrough consists of 28 mainstream walkthrough levels. Meaning, you have to pass each level to get to the final battle with Lavos. In the first part of Chrono Trigger Walkthrough, we are covering pathways from The Millenial Fair to the Trial in the castle and how to pass them? 

Chrono Trigger Walkthrough: The Millenial Fair to The Trial 

Now, when you enter the game, you will have to pass each location from The Millenial Fair to the Village of Magic by following the steps provided. Please note that this walkthrough will help you reach the end of the game if you don’t have any idea how to win it? Thus, it may lead to compromise in your actual gaming experience. Henceforth, go ahead at your own risk. 

Before the first step, i.e.., At the Millenial Fair, you will be required to do some settings, such as changing the default name of the Player’s character – Crono to XXX. It is best if you want a custom gaming experience. 

#1: The Millenial Fair

In this section, you will find yourself in Crono/XXX’s house. Remember, Crono has beginning skills for a swordsman, and he is holding a wooden sword. Now, begin the game by following instructions:

Tips: Avoid fighting with monsters by hugging the right rail on the stairs. Monster will drop a shelter. Save it if you plan to come back to the Cathedral sometime. In comparison, if anything goes wrong, you may have to fight the monster, especially if the frog does not have X-Strike yet. 

After fighting the monster, go back to the Queen’s room and talk. Leave the castle. 

#4: We are BACK – Chrono Trigger Walkthrough

To begin with, this section has two genres. For example, if you are playing a new game, you will find yourself without shelter in Guardia castle/forest. However, if you are continuing the previous game, you will have a shelter that the monster previously dropped. Here’s what to do: 

  • First of all, in the Guardia’s Castle, look for the telepod with sparkle. 
  • When you collect the sparkle, it will take you directly to the final boss. 
  • And, you have to fight it. If you win the fight, the game is over here. 

On the other hand, if you continue, you will find yourself back in Crono’s house, where you are with Marle. Talk about Marle to your mother. Now, it is time to leave for Guardia Castle with Marle. Tell her that her fortune didn’t tempt you. If you do otherwise, there will be consequences. 

#5; The Trail – Jail Cell, Wait, or Escape

Please note that in this section, you may try to have a conversation with the jailer in order to defend yourself. However, you will go to prison anyway. But, for some reason, the authorities will not take away your wooden sword. Now, when you go to your cell, you will find a pink-colored bag already there. It has a potion which you shall drink to gain health. However, this bag is not there if you are guilty. 

Furthermore, you have two options to finish the Trail. First, you can either wait till the execution date. Another option is to escape the prison, which is full of challenges. So, here are instructions on how to escape jail in Chrono Trigger:

  • You will find yourself outside of prison with Lucca. 
  • Now, go to the execution room to find bronze mail. 
  • Again, open the chest placed outside to collect the Mid Tonic. 
  • On your right, a man is trapped in a guillotine. 
  • Free the man and get mid tonic from him. 
  • Knock out guards to avoid hand-to-hand fights. 
  • Once you have done this much, go to your jail cell again and drink from a pink bag to regain health and save the game. 
  • Now, if you want to collect more items, you can roam around the jail for hours and keep collecting.
  • When you are done, save the game and exit the jail. 
Tip:

If you encounter a Dragon Tank in this section, you have to destroy the head in the place. Later, you can attack the tank body and wheels. For additional safety, make certain that your HP is not less than 50. Lucca can heal you whenever you want. Escape the castle when you escape the gate.
