Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology (Nintendo 3DS) | 'Return to a Legendary Classic' Teaser Trailer
Critic Reviews for Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology
A seemingly novel time-travel mechanic shows depth in this engrossing 3DS enhanced port of a Nintendo DS RPG.
With Chronology, Atlus has finally made good on the promise inherent in the original Historia. Then, the company threw in several hours of new material for good measure. The fact that Chronology's bonus additions divide out into one about story and one about combat reinforces the remake team's understanding of the game's underlying duality.
I'm happy Altus is doing what it can to get more people to try out Radiant Historia because the game absolutely holds up and remains a pinnacle of original JRPG storytelling. Perfect Chronology is easy to recommend if you didn't play the original but it doesn't do nearly enough to make the argument for a return trip to Vainqueur.
With the new timeline and improvements, this is the best way to experience this unforgettable game. It will have you laughing, crying, and thinking about it long after you complete Stocke's journey. Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology isn't just the true successor to Chrono Trigger; it's one of the greatest JRPG's ever made.
The ultimate version of one of the most unique JRPGs in recent memory, finally edited in Europe. If language is not a barrier, and you like (or feel attracted to) the genre, then Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology is a must have. A true gem.

When it comes to turn-based RPGs, Radiant Historia manages to hit all the right points that makes it a well-rounded title.
Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology is a great package for people who never played the original and are looking for a great RPG but it doesn't offer enough good new content for people who played the original on the DS.
Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology is a top-shelf JRPG, with an engaging time-travel hook, brilliantly fun, puzzle-like combat, and a genuinely likeable cast of characters.
