Game Information

Chrono Trigger

Age Name: Future
Music: Ruined World
Locations: Arris Dome, Bangor Dome, Death Peak, Factory, Geno Dome, Keeper's Dome, Lab 16, Lab 32, Proto Dome, Sewer Access, Sun Keep, Sun Palace, Trann Dome

The barren, desolate world of 2300 A.D. is the final stop in linear time for the party of Chrono Trigger, and without a doubt the most grave setting the player must visit. It is first seen when Crono, Marle, and Lucca arrive here after escaping the forces of the Chancellor. The ruined world darkly sits, only receiving few beams of light that bleed through the cloudy, black atmosphere. Wind howls and shifts the sands of destruction through the air, over cities gutted hundreds of years ago and absent of any life. Human civilization has been reduced to a scant number of dwellers in self-contained domes, a monotonous existence marked with an absence of hope and desire to live. Sustenance is granted through the Enertron, a device that, aside from preserving human function, cannot cure the ever-present feeling of being hungry. Life, in its most vital form, is in the hands of the machines who populate the Factory and the Geno Dome, where the Mother Brain AI conspires to create an order of steel. Robo, a former associate of the AI, lies dormant in the Proto Dome. And far away, Johnny races in Lab 32 and has developed a following of fans; this is the only glimpse of entertainment and fun in a world subjugated by hellfire. The Guru Belthasar also resides in this era, thrown here from the Ocean Palace Incident; even he is being driven to insanity, though he has completed the Epoch. He is not the only influence from Zeal -- the palace that once housed the Sun Stone has arisen from the bottom of the sea.

Crono's party first investigates the lower regions of the Arris Dome, discovering a seed that provides hope for its residents. Doan, leader of the Arris Dome and a descendant of Marle, gives the party his Bike Key for use in Lab 32. Johnny then challenges Crono to a race, and the player can earn prizes according to how long he spends in front of Johnny. Robo is soon discovered in the Proto Dome and activated by Lucca; he assists the party in opening the door to a Gate. Later on, the party returns to retrieve the Epoch, stored in the Keeper's Dome's hangar by Belthasar's Nu assistant. After the Ocean Palace Incident in the Keystone Timelines, the party returns to the era to ascend Death Peak, where Lavos is said to preside over the ruined world. The use of the Chrono Trigger here allows passage to the Ocean Palace in 12000 B.C. and the extraction of Crono a split-second before he is obliterated. The party then make two visits for sidequests. Firstly, the Sun Stone is found within the Sun Palace, guarded by the Son of Sun, and is taken to 65000000 B.C. to be recharged. It is then reclaimed from this era's Sun Keep (although the party must get it back from the Porre Mayor first). Lastly, Robo discovers his roots during a journey to the Geno Dome, resulting in the extinguishing of Mother Brain's twisted ambition and the death of Robo's friend, Atropos XR (though she will be fine in the new timeline after Lavos's defeat).
