An incredible, towering achievement from one of the best JRPG developer dream teams ever assembled. The time travel story is fascinating, the characters are incredibly strong, the music is phenomenal. The combat is pretty simple, satisfying ATB stuff, but I love that the characters have unique identities in combat and the variety of dual techs is fun to experiment with. I feel like I sometimes lose steam in a playthrough towards the back half, but I've played through it so many times anyway. Frog and Ayla are always my go-to team with Crono. The huge variety of endings was also incredibly novel for the time.

I sorely miss video game tie-ins to movies like this. A fantastic platformer, and probably helped inspire my ongoing crusade for more games where you play as non-humanoids. Spent hours and hours on this as a kid, could always breeze through the first 3 levels and then start to struggle immensely. But I got through and beat it several times back then, and it always felt like a huge accomplishment. Revisiting it as an adult in the Disney Classic Games pack I had a much easier time with it, although some levels are still a bit challenging (Be Prepared especially). Love how colorful it is, and how they translate the film's score to 16-bit sounds. The stampede section blew me away on a technical level as a kid. Great game
