The game features many recruitable characters (up to 45, though not all of them can be recruited in one playthrough), several different endings, and the ability to play the game again with the statistics and items from the previous play.Chrono Cross is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square (now Square Enix) for the PlayStation video game console. Though most of the plot progression is linear, there are several sub-quests that are not required to complete in order to reach the game's ending. When the character participates in a battle, the allocated elements act as equipped spells, and can be cast until their amount is depleted. Player-controlled characters have differently shaped grids which allow the player to allocate purchased or found elements there. Battle fields may also be marked by a particular element, granting bonuses to attacks based on it, and reducing the damage caused by the opposing one. Each player-controlled character and enemy has an innate element, which enhances the power of spells categorized under it when used by said character, but also weakens his or her resistance to the opposing element. There are also no character levels in the game: instead, the characters get their parameters increased directly after each battle.Īll magic spells, character-specific tech attacks, and consumable items are grouped into six elements, which are divided into three pairs with opposing properties. Actions in battle deplete a certain amount of stamina, which recovers as other characters act. During battles, Serge and his party members can perform three kinds of attacks: weak, medium, and strong, which tend to miss more frequently but inflict more damage. Combat in the game is turn-based like Chrono Trigger, the game has no random battles, and enemies are always visible on screen.
