CHRONO TRIGGER (Upgrade Ver.) App Reviews

Look this is my favorite game of all time but Square needs to learn to update their apps. THERE ARE VERY KNOWN BUGS AND NO PATCHES IN OVER A YEAR. New game plus doesnt work it will drain all TP and you wont be able to earn more. No icloud saving. This is essential to a game with new game plus where you play many times across multiple devices. iCade support has been asked for since day one.

God, I love Chrono Trigger. Unfortunately among the original and its various rerelease and ports this is the worst implementation. The graphics are blurry and this problem gets worse on larger screens, to the point its downright butt ugly on the iPad. The touch controls work, but running is finicky at best. I will give points for including almost everything from the DS port. The only noticeable omission is the FMV cutscenes present in the PSX and DS version. If you have any other version of the game, or if you intend to play this on anything larger than the iPhone... stay away. Square-Enix, if youre reading this PLEASE update the game. Chrono Trigger deserves so much better.

Two words- Deaths Peak. I have no idea how Im going to get past this part, effectively locking the remainder of the game off from me. Its just too hard to make fine control decisions with the touch screen d-pad. Chrono Trigger is one of the greatest games of all time, but without some sort of fix this version is terrible.

This game is fantastic! Wonderful characters, great story and outstanding creativity. The controls are perfect. One slight problem it the graphics are less detailed than the original. But, it did not take away from my experience in any way. It is a MUST BUY!

I really had an awesome time playing this game again. The virtual d-pad controls take some getting used to, however. The biggest problem Ive found with this game happens on Newgame+ when you enter the End of Time. You cant leave until you speak with Spekkio but doing so results in the reset of your tech abilities and no way to gain them back! Ive been searching and found this is an issue people have been having without any solutions.

Just updated for iOS9 support and works flawlessly on iPhone 6s Plus.

This RPG is simply amazing. If you dont like RPGs or dont want to play a modern overly complicated RPG, but are curious of RPGs then you might want to give Chrono Trigger a try. Its the gateway RPG. The game play alone has just the right balance of simplicity with some layers of complexity to be interesting and fun to play. The story is captivating to say the least, with interesting characters you actually care for, which is strange since they are just 16 bit pixels. The music and sound still holds up very very well; I find myself humming the music while Im at work. The SNES had superior sound processing back in the day, and Square took the music score very seriously back then, which is why its still so good today. My only gripes are the inconsistency of Squares Enixs iOS releases being universal apps vs for iPhone only. For 10 dollars, it should have an iPad version also included. But that said, playing it on the iPad as expanded still looks and works pretty well. An upscaled version would be good for iPad and well deserved for this game in particular. Also, it seems like there is about a one month gap where you cant fully experience the complete game when iOS gets its yearly update. Some things break after the update, and it takes Square some time to allocate their iOS guys to band aid it for the year. Same applies to secret of mana which I requested (and received) a refund for the non-start issue. For the premium prices they charge, and we willingly pay as this library is a money printer, Square should be anticipating the differences in iOS versions and updating the code during the beta period so there are no breaks in the gaming experience for the customer.

Chrono trigger is a great game, but this port has one major flaw that I hope get fixed soon. In ng+ when you learn magic your techs will be reset and if your like me and had them all learned you dont gain tech points anymore. This means you cannot get them back. Thankfully I only had two characters have this issue and just didnt talk to spekkio later. Its a great game I just hope this gets fixed.

Finished this on the SNES, PlayStation, PC eM and now on a fully paid iOS device. Only wish theyd implement cloud saves so I can move between iOS devices and also auto max level up as they do on FF7. Getting old and dont have that much time to grind.

It would be nice is the game was formatted to fit the full screen of the iPhone I dont know if they purposely dos it like that but it just doesnt look as nice

This game brings back many childhood memories & finally decided to purchase it on iPad & iPhone,really great port & works wonders, but my only beef is trying to upload my save data to cloud storage & then if I wanna continue lets say on my iPhone 6, if theres a way without jailbreaking then please tell me,my sister did it but she forgot how

This game is fantastic, I usually dont write app reviews but I love this game.While I agree the combat and controls for this game is flawed to say the least,the amazing RPG that we all came to love is still there it doesnt matter if your a veteran RPG gamer or have never played one you have to get the game!!! I fell in love with it and have played it countless times and if you even know remotely what a good game is then you will love this game.The story is 15 hours long but it will feel like its 40hours long with all the fun you will have in it.So I highly suggest doing yourself a favor and picking up this game for unmatched RPG goodness.

One of my favorite Rpg game. The soundtrack is beautiful and the battles are fun!

Make it so

This game runs flawlessly. From the well adapted control style to the fast run speed it is just like playing this game on the SNES again. An amazing story and excellent play style I would recommend it to anyone and everyone who lover RPGS as much as I do.

This has always been my favorite storyline, from the time traveling to the characters. I almost get an itch to play this game every once in a while. They did a good thing bringing it to the iPad.

Not too many flaws, except whenever I try to see my partys triple techniques it constantly crashes and screws me when I havent saved. Aside from that its good

I originally played Chrono Trigger when I was a little kid. I used to go to this day care center that had a game room full of wall to wall Super Nintendos and boxes upon boxes full of games. Some of my most cherished childhood memories where inside that daycare playing games like Zelda, super Mario world, Secret of Mana, and yes, Chrono Trigger until my parents came and picked me up. Although I was far too young at the time to comprehend such complex gameplay so I never made it that far in the game. All I could remember was constantly dying at that boss battle against the dragon tank lol. Ever since then it has been a dream of mine to be able to play through the entire game, and now my dreams have finally come true. This game is simply spectacular. Everything from the engrossing story line to the top-notch tech battle system. The game feels like a 70 hour epic even though its only about 30-40 hours including all the side quests. I just beat the game last night and just started a new game plus and I still have the dimensional vortex side quest as well so there is soo many hours of incredibly unforgettable and magical gameplay to be had here. I will never forget this super intense trip down memory lane!!

Game looks bad on my iPad Pro and iPhone 6s+ There is also no controller support. And where the heck is iCloud game sync support?

Great game, horrible port. The graphics are extremely blurry on Retina Display and the controls are too erratic. Not only that, but Square has managed to take a 32-megabit SNES game and blow it up to take over half a gig of space. Really lousy and irresponsible programming on their part, but very typical of how Square has been making their mobile games these days. Dont waste your money buying this.
