Wide Flank: Happy Gaming

Chrono Trigger - Gameclub

Listen Later

Another classic that really held up. Released in 1995 for the SNES, Chrono Trigger continues to top “Best Of” video game lists. None of us had played it, so we played it!

The combat sort of sucked but there was so much that made up for that. It looked great, the world was compelling, some weird good NPC dialogue and a soundtrack that rocked.

Next Gameclub is Portal + Portal 2: https://store.steampowered.com/app/620/Portal_2/

Two months from now we are doing Hades, so start whenever is convenient and don’t save it until the day before the show: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1145360/Hades/

Happy gaming.
