With their time travel device damaged and losing power, the party must try to find a way to keep it working long enough to fix the anomalies and get the Nicks home. But where in the world of Chrono Trigger would there be enough power for something like time travel? Perhaps a visit to a certain AI would do the trick?
In our world, T and G try to understand more about this understated section of the game, and maybe what could have been improved on. In particular...
What is going on in this sidequest: How do you get to it, and what might you expect to find?
Atropos and Mother Brain! Their origins, and the role they play in Robo’s story (and the story of the game)
Missed potential: How could they have tied this sidequest better into the plot of the game, and into Robo’s character development in particular (and briefly why the developers might not have been able to do this)
Editing, scripting, and podcast visual design by Nick Terwoord. Special thanks to Square Enix for making that game that we love, Chrono Trigger ...and for not suing us.
