2. Introduction [INTRO]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"When a newly developed teleportation device malfunctions, young Crono must
journey through time to rescue a mysterious girl from an intricate web of
past and present perils. Enhanced with dual-screen presentation, stylus
controls, and a host of great new features, the classic tale transcends time
once again!" - Back of game case
So, sounds like some fun huh? Well, whether you just picked up Chrono Trigger
for the DS because you just heard about it, or you've played it on the SNES
and PS1, its my job to help you through! After all, you aren't just reading
for the heck of it right?
Well I'll try not to give up to many spoilers and if I do it will say
"SPOILER!!!", and put it in a box so you know when you can keep reading!
I'll try to go into detail about side things like the Arena of Ages, but I
don't think that I will have time, and there are several other, not to
mention better, In-Depth faqs for those. I would advise you to take a look at
those.
The sections are broken down as follows: The heading that the game has when
you save, and then my random titles as subsections. Each section will usually
contain Items, which are the items that you should obtain going through,
shops, shops that you can buy from (usually I will only put new shops in so
that the repeated info doesn’t take up space) and enemies that you encounter.
In the section will just have an over view of all the items you get from all
the subsections, the enemies names that you encounter, and new shops that you
can access. Also, the section will contain the level (written as Preffered
Level) I went in with, though I might make it a bit higher if I have a
difficult time. The subsections will have the same things relative to that
section, along with all the info on new enemies.
This is my very first faq, so I'm sorry for anything I mess up, also I'm
sorry for the boring wall of text, I don't know how to ASCII art or whatever.
Also, for the sake of saving spoilers and keeping the document small, and
moving, I will try to refrain from throwing too much of the story in.
Well enough of my blabbering, time to get into the game!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Getting Started [GS]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright! The games on!!!! Once you arrive at the title screen, select new
game. It will then take you to customize your game play. These CAN be changed
later, so go ahead and experiment if you would like. The game goes into it,
but if its confusing, hopefully this will help:
Game mode:
Ds: Use the stylus or buttons to navigate the battle menu (displayed on
the bottom screen with character health and stuff). I usually just utilize
the buttons, however I like the top screen to be open. Maybe I'm
claustrophobic. XP
Classic: Choose whether to just use buttons and see the friend and foes
status on the bottom screen. I haven't tried this yet.
If people would like to tell me which they prefer and why, then I'll be happy
to add that here! :)
Battle made:
Active: Wow boy! Here they come! The enemies throw themselves at you
when the can, whether your thinking or not! Just like a real fight! But then
again, in a real fight, you don't have to sift through menus to attack XD.
This is the mode that I prefer.
Wait: When your character can make a move, the game stops the action so
you have time to pick your moves. Great to form a strategy, or for people new
to Chrono Trigger.
Movies:
On: When the story progresses, the anime cut-scenes that were added in
on the PS1 version will be see. I recommend this, since they are usually
really short anyhow and interesting. Though the same thing happens in-game
also. Just lower graphics XD.
Off: You will not see the added in anime cut-scenes. I guess if your
sick of them cause you've played through the game too much then it would be a
good idea. But then I don't know why you would read this. But hey free will,
do what you want! :D Or maybe you just really don't like anime, and when you
see it then you go into a feral rage, nibble your Ds corner and jump out your
window to wreck havoc on the city. XP
Once you are satisfied with you're choices, press start to advance.
Here you will be asked to name Crono, the main character. I left it Crono (I
usually leave all the names in.) but my gf put my name in for Crono. Your
choice! Yay, I love choices!!! It just can't be more than six characters
long.
Buckle up! You're in the game now!!!!

4a. Going to the Fair [GTTF]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Items:
200G
Rise and shine sleepyhead!!! After you watch the opening scene, head down the
stairs where your mother will inquire you. Poor Mom, must be getting old,
can't even remember you best friends name! T_T
Once you fill in Lucca's name, your mom will remind you that you promised to
go see Lucca's new invention.
But don't run off without talking to your mother again! Since you're so sweet
and take time to talk to her, she remembers to give you your allowance!
SCORE!!! 200G!
Off to the fair! Go out your front door and straight on till morning! Err..
wrong quote sorry! XP Looking past my constant bad jokes, head upward to the
fair you saw earlier in the opening cut-scene. Press A to go in when the
words "Millennial Fair" pops up. Once inside, look around and talk to people
if you would like. To the left is a strength contest. To the right is the
tent of horrors, along with a race tent where you may guess the next winner.
Scattered around the middle are several shops. When you're ready to go to the
next screen, head north.
FREEZE!!! WALK up to the bell and you should get run over buy an exuberant
girl. After the dialogue TALK TO HER BEFORE GETTING THE PENDANT FOR HER!
(Well it's your choice but a few things that you do or don't do will affect
something a bit later. It changes the story outcome little, but seeing your
previous actions have consequences makes this game great!) When she asks for
it back, say YES. Then choose SURE to walk around with her.
Note: Some (actually a lot) of people in the game have a different name
than what is given to them by default. This usually has to do with their
background story. If you want to name them their proper name, than I will put
it in a spoiler box, that way people who don’t want to know won’t have to
look.
Alright, finish up naming Marle, and you're on your way! (Don’t forget
capitals! I don’t put capitals in the name in the box so people don’t
accidentally spy it scrolling by.)
---------------------------------
| SPOILER!!! Marles’ Real Name  |
---------------------------------
| So wanna know what her real   |
| name is? Well let me through  |
| some words in here so people  |
| don’t know that her name is   |
| actually nadia. Ofcourse you  |
| won’t know the significance   |
| of that yet, but if your ocd  |
| like me than you want the     |
| names for people.             |
---------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4b. Learning the Basics [LTB]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Items:
Potion x 1
100G
300G
Head out of the fair and back to town. Go to the fountain and head south. You
should be at the bottom left part of the town, and able to enter the Mayors
Manor. Here you can get the in-game tutorials that can teach you a lot better
than I can!
A few more important things in here are a free potion, 100G, and
300G! To claim your prizes, Go into the kitchen and open the chest next to
the.. trash can? It's some form of pot thing. Then, skip up the stairs and
open the treasure chest between the beds.
Then turn around and talk to the old man behind you. He will tell you about
techs. Talk to him again when you finishes, and he will give you a whooping
300G!
If you need guidance with the game controls, battle screens, or just some
random tips, then talk to the people in here. You may also visit the other
two residences and Truce inn if you would like. Truce inn has a chest you
cannot open at this point(contains either a blue vest or a blue plate. Right
now I don’t know how to get the plate.). The residencies just give you more
info about the game story. Nothing you can't gather from the people at the
fair, however, if you're like me and like to talk to every person three
hundred times, then feel free to pop in and say high to them. Also, you can
go across the port outside the mayor manor to the right and go to the ferry
office. One lady in there will say something about her dearest Fritz being
gone.
Now... Decisions, decisions, decisions. My suggestion would be to go and
level up. If you agree with me, then keep reading. If not, then skip the next
section, however, you will miss out on a strength capsule. You can get it
later, but I might forget to tell you to XP.

-----------------------------------------
From the Mayors Manor, go left and up into the forest. The words "Guardia
Forest" should pop up. Enter and walk up to the T intersection. Go right. At
the fork in the road, choose the lower path and go all the way to the right.
See that shiny thing on the ground? Pick it up, you just got a strength
capsule! Walking south, run into the three mushrooms.
Holy Crap they move! And attack! If you would like to know what they are,
they are three Amanita. Info for new enemies (otherwise, its just names to
save room) found in each area are at the top, in the order you encounter them
following the guide. Simply attacking them will defeat them (though at this
point in the game you don't have to many other options XP)
Go up to the last fork in the road and take the upper path. Charge at the
yellow guy! Poor guy, he was just taking a stroll through the forest! This
frightened rolly polly thing gets freaked out and runs into a tree, dropping
down three scarabs to keep you occupied while he finishes his get away. These
too can be dispatched with the attack command. After you finish, you probably
just learned the move Cyclone. Now you have a little bit more flexibility
with your attacks!
Walk after the yellow guy (he ran up and left incase you missed his get away)
and keep going until you see a right turn(relative to your character, it's
probably better if I say a turn north) and a flying bird with a bell. Charge!
This little Gilded Bellbird will summon two scarabs with its bell once he
sees you. Take out the closest scarab with Marles regular attack, and then
use your new tech that Crono learned to attack the Bellbird and the other
scarab. The scarab should die and the bellbird should be badly wounded. A few
more hits and he goes down.
Alright! One level down, however many more you want to go! Head north past
where the Bellbird used to be where you will find three more Amanita. Dispose
of them as you will, and you will learn the tech Aura! Hooray for healing
spells!!
Nothing much else up here. Just up and all the way to the right in the next
screen is a box like the one in Truce inn that you can't open yet (this one
has a Power Ring). However it's still good to make a mental note of it. The
road to the north splitting from the afore mentioned path only leads to the
Castle, which you can't do anything in there anyway, so lets go south again.
Back at the intersection where you defeated the Bellbird, swing west and
follow the path downward. Dispatch the last batch of Amanita, and you're
outta here! Looking at the map on the bottom screen, you should notice that
you have come full circle and if you follow the path right just a bit more
than you arrive at the first T intersection. Go south from the T intersection
and you're outta the forest! If you would like to level up more then walk
back in, rinse, and repeat. However, I'm going to write some more about
continuing the game, so have fun okay?
NOTE: If you came back to look how to get through from the Homecoming
section, and want to get back, just do the same thing you did to get here,
but put in wyddr(all capitalized) into the Search on this Page.

4d. Fair Games [FG]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Items:
Kilwala doll
Crono doll
Kitty
Now that we are done with leveling (or just ready to move on) lets go back to
the fair. Now is the time to play some games, and rack up Silver Points!
While they don't do too much, there are a few things you may do with them.
1.Change them to gold! The exchange rate is 10 Silver Points for 50G.
Interested? Stop by the purple colored tent in the second part of the
fair (The screen where Crono ran into Marle) and chat with the
merchant.
2.The Tent of Horrors! Here you can play more mini games and win
different prizes. I will go into a little more detail when I describe
the various games that you may do.
So you know what you can do with them, now how do you get them? By playing
Fair games of course! Here is a list of games you can play and where you can
find them.
-Strength Test: Located in the first screen of the Fair all the way to the
left of the screen. Walk up to the machine and press A. When Crono gets all
the way to the back tap A again. He will go back and forth till you press A,
so keep your cool and time it correctly. For your effort, you get 1 Silver
Point every time you win!
-Betting on the Races: In the first screen of the Fair, on the middle right,
talk to the man in the blue tent. He will most likely tell you to be quite
while the race is going on. Follow his instructions and talk to him again
while the runners are lined up in a line after the race finishes. Then he
will ask you who you think will win. Choose one and hope for the best,
because to me, it seems like its random every time.
TIP: There is an old man on the very bottom right hand of your screen. He IS
NOT correct 100% of the time, but he definitely wins more than I do! Talk to
him during, or after, the runners line up. He will predict the winner of the
next race. Walk to the tent and place your bet on his choice. If you are
correct, then you get a whooping 20 SP! That's the most Silver Points that
you can get at anyone time in a mini game!
-Chugging: On the screen where Crono ran into Marle, go down the flight of
stairs on the right to a young man at a table. Here he will tell you to chug
8 sodas(atleast we hope its soda..). MASH THE A BUTTON!!!! It's tough, I
don't win all the time, but it is possible! If you manage to drink all 8, you
are rewarded 5 SP. Was it worth the tired arm?
P.S. The screen above where you are now features prehistoric dancing! You
don't get anything for it, but you can do it just for fun!
-Fighting Gato: Lucca has a bi-pedal singing/fightingrobot. You can face him
if you like. If you win(which is likely, however you HP will NOT go back up
after the fight.) then you will obtain 15 SP! If you would like to cross
metal with this battle bot, head to the second screen of the fair (where
Crono ran into Marle) and take the left hand flight of stairs. Ignore that
pink thing on the table.(It's the pacing old mans lunch. It heals your HP and
MP, however eating it has repercussions later.) And follow the path up and to
the next screen talk to the big robot, and start the fight. Here are his
stats:

-----------------------------------------
Losing to Gato should leave you with 1 HP each, in which case, it would be
wise to visit the Truce inn. I DON'T advise eating the old mans lunch,
however, you still may if you don't want to walk to the inn and spend the
gold. You will just miss out one thing later.
-Tent of Horrors: You will NOT get SP here. However, you can spend them to
play three different mini games and three different prizes:
10 SP: Mix and Match. Three soldiers walk out and tell you there names.
Biggs, Wedge, and Pierre. They walk around and shuffle themselves and then
they ask you to find one person. The first person they asked me was Biggs,
and he was in the middle, but I don't know if all games are the same. For
your efforts, you get a Kilwala doll for your room. If you press A on him,
then the song will change.
40 SP: Crono Says. A clone of Crono comes out, and you have to match his
actions. The controls are (for default):
L: raise left hand
R: raise right hand
Y: Laugh
A: Surprised
He will get progressively harder to follow, but keep your cool. Also don't
over think it. If the clone raises his hand that's on the left side of the
screen raise you left hand. It's just like looking in a mirror. When you win,
you will have a Crono clone in your room. Pressing A on him will change his
pose.
80 SP: Fiend Attack. Man this is expensive! Here's what happens, three
monsters (Kilwalas) come out. You throw bean bags at them to push them back
into the cage. However, they take Marle hostage and lower her into the fire,
and you have to press the blue light on the wall all the way to the left when
it appears to keep her from burning. Sound tough? Want some help? What else
am I here for?
Okay to start, by running up to the bean bag (little crystal looking thing on
the ground) on the right. Press A while facing it. Run to the middle one and
do the same thing. Now go back to the right and press A again. If you did it
quickly enough, then you have on of them in the cage. Immediately after,
throw the middle one again. Two down one to go. Uh oh! Marle is getting close
to the fire, so run over to the left and press the blue light (stand in front
of it, facing it and press A) to raise her up from harm, throwing the bean
bag on the left at the monster if you think you have time. After that its
cake. Just keep pressing A in front of the last bean bag so that it is ready
to be thrown again. Just keep throwing it and keep an eye out for the blue
light, hitting it when necessary to save Marle.
You are rewarded for your efforts with a kitty!
After you beat any level once, you can do it again to get cat food for your
cat(s) at home. You can check the bin in Crono's room to see how many grams
of cat food are left.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4e. Lucca's Invention [LI]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that you know about the games, its time to get on with the story. Heading
back to where Crono and Marle met, head north and talk to the two boys. I
guess Lucca is still setting up. That's okay, we have business of our own.
Head south down the LEFT flight of stairs past the old man to a cat sitting
by itself. Speak to it and listen to it meow. Then walk away, it should
follow you. Walk back up the flight of stairs (walking should make it so the
cat doesn't get stuck behind stuff. If it does, simply go back so it will
follow you and get unstuck) all the way across and down the right flight of
stairs. Near the Soda chugging table is  a little girl who lost her kitty.
Imagine that! Talk to her and she will thank you.
Now go back to the first screen and talk to Melchoir. He is the sword crafter
to the left of the race tent. Look at his selection (though you shouldn't buy
anything, you can find the steel saber in a chest in a bit.) and exit. He
will ask you if he could buy Marle's pendent. Reply with Sorry.
Now go directly to the left and talk to merchant in the blue tent. Buy if you
would like, however I think you will be okay for the moment. When you are
done, he will tell you that Lucca's device is ready.
NOTE: Now is a great time to get the Crono doll. This is an EXTREMELY
important item near the very end of the game. You will have most the game to
get it, however, I would suggest getting it now so you do not forget. If you
do not know how to obtain the Crono doll, see the FAIR GAMES section just
above and look at the Tent of Horrors section. You must complete the game
that cost 40 SP.
Once it is ready north to see Luccas device. You will notice those two boys
are gone and you are free to go. Or are you? Marle pleads to go look at some
candy. Listen like a good little boy, and don't move. She will then say she
is done in a bit (about 10 seconds). Now proceed to see Lucca.
Listen to Taban, Lucca's father, rave about the new invention. If you would
like, talk to people and when you are ready, have Crono take a go at it.
Seems Crono is the only one who wants to go first. Follow their instructions,
and do it again if you would like (though its not necessary). Go talk to
Marle and she will boldly step up.
Watch the cut scene and pick up the pendant to try the teleporter again. Hold
on to your hats, cause its about to get crazy!

-----------------------------------------
Once you emerge, you find yourself in a small cleft with one exit to the
west. However, walking over there(or just waiting for a bit) makes three Blue
Imps ambush you. You should be able to dispatch them with regular attacks one
hit per monster, especially if you leveled up in Guardia forest. Afterward,
head over to the next screen.
On this screen, you see a path downward and a ladder. Nothing is on the lower
path, so climb the ladder and follow the path left across the bridge. Hooray!
Two more friends wanna play. Dispatch these two Blue Imps as you did the
other ones. If you continue left, you can open a chest, which contains a
Potion.
Travel south from where you fought the two Blue Imps, and walk east where the
path splits. In lucky chest number 2 is a Power Glove. This accessory boost
your power by 2. I would change this out for Crono's Headband that only
grants speed + 1.
Go back west to the intersection and head southwest until you get to a
ladder. Climb on down and watch the entertaining game of kick ball between
the two Blue Imps. Although the ball looks funny, and turns out to be a
Roundillo. I would fight them, but I have blood lust, so it's up to you to
continue southwest past them or to kill them. They can easily be dispatched,
especially if you equipped the Power Glove. A well-placed Cyclone tech on the
Roundillo when the Blue Imps are close can end the match in one hit.
Regardless of your choice, head southwest when you are ready to exit.

-----------------------------------------
Turning around and facing where you came from reveals that you came out of
Truce Canyon. Truce??? That’s Crono’s hometown! And walking south reveals our
little town! Hmmm.. but it’s different, older looking.. and the map on the
bottom looks different..
Walking into the residence on the top right of the town adds more to the
twist, they have no clue what your talking about! Heading to the residency at
the bottom left of the town you can see a man working on a bell.. Such
mystery! Lol.
Walk over to Truce inn, and upon entering talk to the solider in front of
you. Yep, we’re still in Guardia. Walk to the right and talk to the solider.
Apparantly their queen had been missing, but they found her in Truce canyon.
That’s where you came from! After the conversation, a man named Toma walks
in. Talking to him and giving him 10G reveals that he thought he had a lead
on the queens whereabouts. I thinks twice about his suspicions about the
cathedral to the west when he is told that they found the queen. Nothing much
else here, except another chest you can’t open on the second floor
(containing a blue vest), and a nice place to stay for 10G. It would be wise
to stay the night since you health is probably low.
When you have heard enough about Queen Leene and the Fiendlord, proceed west
to Guardia forest, the same place you found it before. Looks, the same. Go
north to the first T section and continue east from there. At the next
intersection, you are ambushed by two Roundillo and a Green Imp. Another good
use for a well-placed Cyclone on the Green Imp. Walking down the familiar
southern path, you see a shiney thing on the ground (Don’t confuse this with
the one on the rock further south.) Holy crap! Another Strength Capsule!
Down south a bit more is another shiney object, however when you touch it,
you get AMBUSHED!!! Two Roundillo Riders come to get ya, however, you can
take them down with a hit or two each. To our dismay, there is nothing left
behind to grab, just a cruel joke T_T
Go back to the intersection and go north. Remember this place? Looks like the
same place where the yellow roundillo ran away. For the people who didn’t go
trough Guardia Well the bush at the top left of your screen has three
Roundillos, and approaching it will make them fight you. Hugging the far
trees will let you evade them, however, I just like to kill them, more exp!
Walking a little more west you can see another bush. Approach that one and
press A; A little Kilwala will pop out and run away, leaving a Shelter
behind. You can exit and come back in as many times as you would like, and it
will still be there. You can do this at any time throughout the game.
Continue west. Here at the intersection another bush moves around. However,
pressing A on this one prompts a battle with two Roundillo Riders. After you
eliminate this threat (or pass it by) you have two choices A) Continue north
towards the castle, or B) continues southern bound around the circle to
takedown the three Blue Eaglets. They are fairly easy and can be taken out
with one hit, however, they can cause slow with screech. It’s a nuisance but
easy to deal with either with a Panacea or just waiting until the battle
ends.
If you went to destroy the Blue Eaglets, head back to the intersection and
go north. Otherwise, just go north. Follow the path until a small clearing.
If you are running low on life, then stay to the left and you won’t enter a
fight. However, if you would like, then stay towards the right and three
Roundillo Riders will come to be your victims.
Proceed until you see a sign that says “Guardia Castle, No trespassing”.
Guess that means Welcome? Take that path out of the forest. If you are curios
as to what is at the end of the other path, it is just a dead end (different
than the one before) with a different unopenable chest. This one has a Speed
Capsule, so keep it in mind for later.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5c. Guardia Castle [GC]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Items:
Ether x2
Bronze Armor
After you’re out of the forest, walk forward to Guardia Castle. Enter and
watch the scene that follows. Looks like you have friends in high places
already! Once you have control look around a bit.
I suggest heading left first. You will find a staircase, and after that is a
stair well going down with two guards. They will tell you it’s the knights’
quarters, and that you are welcome to use them. Take their advice and go down
the stairs. On this screen go south down the flight of stairs where you will
see the commander at a table with four other soldiers, a maid, a wounded
soldier and another soldier taking care of him. Talk to the maiden to get
some rest.
Talking to the knights at the table reveals a few important things, though
aren’t crucial to advancing, I would suggest talking to them to get into the
story more.
Now go to the opposite side of the castle (go back to the entrance and head
right and take the staircase down to the kitchen). Here is another
alternative to restore your HP and MP, food! If you want some chow, then
walk directly down until you hit the left table, and stand in between the
table and the chair closest to you. Press A and a maiden will come to take
your order. Your three options are:
Refreshing salad: Heal MP
Power stew: Heal HP
Spiced roast: Heal HP and MP
In the upper left corner of this room is a guard lying on the ground. Talk to
him for some comic relief. Heading left and down will take you to the cooks
area. Here a chest sits, waiting for you to take the Ether inside. Talking to
people here is trivial, but still interesting. On your way out, the captain
of the knighthood comes in and a small scene develops. Talking to the knights
and cooking staff now is different, and explains a little of what just
happened.
When you are ready to proceed, go back to the entrance of the castle and take
the central staircase past the two guards who harassed you when you came in.
Walk forward through the door and the other set of guards into the kings
audience chamber. Talk to the king. The guards in the back just give you
directions. Go up the flight of stairs by the knight on the left. Go up the
stair well two screens and stop. In this little room is a treasure chest with
100G in it. On the next floor is a crested chest (you know, the annoying ones
you can’t open XD) This one has a Red Vest.
Continue up into the kings quarters. Here you see the chancellor, talk to
him. Suspicious? Walk down to the hall, go right, and talk to the guards.
They seem to think so, regardless, walk into the kings room. The maiden tells
you the Chancellor goes to the church everyday. Finally, look behind the
chair in the kings room. A chest! And inside is some nice Bronze Armor. Equip
that to Crono and head back down to the audience chamber.
Head to the right side this time. You’re going up to see the queen. Like
before, head up two flights of stairs and stop in the room to grab a potion
out of the chest on the right. Then continue up the other two. Talk to the
guard standing in the doorway to the hall and he will let you pass.
Talk to the handmaidens if you wish, and grab the chest behind the chair like
in the kings room. Inside this one is an Ether. Go talk to the queen and do
as she says. Then watch the cut scene. After this strange turn of events, go
out the hall like nothing happened. Talk to the maidens (the one on the left
is particularly funny) and listen to the knights wise words. After that small
comic relief, go back to the audience chamber.
Lucca! Yay, the genius should be able to fill us in as to everything that’s
happened so far. Go through this dialogue and the search is on. Now where to
begin...? Lets look at our evidence:
Toma the explorer says he had suspicions about the new cathedral.
The Chancellor has been acting strange, and goes to the cathedral everyday.
And since the cathedral has been built the fiends have disappeared from that
area.
I guess we know where we are going to next! To the Cathedral!

Head out of the Castle and save. Then navigate your way back to the other
side of Guardia Forest, remembering to pick up a shelter from the kilwala in
the bush. I’ll leave it up to you how many people you want to kill on the
way. However leveling Lucca up would be a good idea.
A few things:
Lucca has an accessory called Sight Scope that shows enemy HP. Handy,
