Death Peak

CHRONO TRIGGER® guide · Climbing to revive Chrono

The party scales the howling, blizzard-swept summit in the future using guidance from Belthasar's Poyozo dolls to overcome intense winds, icy precipices, and monster nests. At the mountain's peak, they activate the Chrono Trigger alongside the Crono clone to freeze time at the Ocean Palace and rescue Crono from the moment of his demise.

Tips

When scaling the first screen, run upward only when the wind calms down and brace directly behind the trees facing north so the gale does not blow the party off the peak.
In the third Lavos Spawn encounter, push the leftover empty shell beneath the broken ladder to climb atop it and reach the final ascent.
