![]() ![]() In battle, players can attack, use Elements, defend, or run away. For example, players can run away from all conflicts, including boss fights and the final battle. Chrono Cross's developers aimed to break new ground in the genre, and the game features several innovations. If all the player's characters fall in battle, the game ends and must be restored from a previously saved chapter-except for specific storyline-related battles that allow the player to lose. When a playable character loses all hit points, he or she faints. For both the playable characters and the computer-controlled enemies, each attack reduces their number of hit points (a numerically based life bar), which can be restored through some Elements. Battles are turn-based, allowing the player unlimited time to select an action from the available menu. Touching the monster switches perspectives to a battle screen, in which players can physically attack, use "Elements", defend, or run away from the enemy. Like Chrono Trigger, the game features no random encounters enemies are openly visible on field maps or lie in wait to ambush the party. Locations such as cities and forests are represented by more realistically scaled field maps, in which players can converse with locals to procure items and services, solve puzzles and challenges, or encounter enemies. Around the island world are villages, outdoor areas, and dungeons, through which the player moves in three dimensions. Navigation between areas is conducted via an overworld map, much like Chrono Trigger's, depicting the landscape from a scaled-down overhead view. Players advance the game by controlling the protagonist Serge through the game's world, primarily by foot and boat.
