Opinion: Chrono Trigger Isn’t The Only Great Time-Travel RPG On DS

Image: Nintendo LifeNo less than an hour into Radiant Historia, Stocke – a special agent in Astiel’s Special Intelligence Unit and the game’s main protagonist – is on the brink of death. His mission to rescue a spy who has infiltrated the Granorg army has failed, and his subordinates Raynie and Marco have been killed.

But it’s not over. On the brink of death, Stocke is transported to some kind of M. C. Escher-like world: Historia. There, he is told about the power of the White Chronicle, a book he was given by his boss before the mission. He can use it to go back in time and fix events in his past. The special agent decides to use that power to save his new friends, and succeeds.
