Maybe Chrono Trigger is the greatest video game ever. Never have strong story and strong game play been so well matched.
The game play is great, classic stuff. The many side quests and endings make CT replayable.
The story is one of the best ever put in a game. It goes beyond being a cute yarn about time travel: it's ultimately life-affirming and beautiful, with memorable characters that struggle with identity, loss, and relationships. It's haunting.
The graphics are excellent for the time. The soundtrack is beautiful; it amazes me how much video game composers could get so much out of such limited sound technology back in the 16-bit days.
Overall, this is a classic. Not to be missed by those who call themselves JRPG fans.
