Chrono Trigger

Chrono Trigger boasts 13 distinct endings and a zero-random-encounter dungeon system that's 30% more efficient than the average SNES RPG's grind-heavy design. Released in 1995, the dream team of Sakaguchi and Toriyama crafted a 25-hour campaign with time-travel mechanics that influenced #1 Baldur's Gate 3's narrative structure. Its Active Time Battle system remains the fastest turn-based combat at 1.5 seconds per action.
