Navigate the Future (2300 A.D.) in Chrono Trigger with this comprehensive walkthrough. Find passcodes, hidden items, and defeat bosses to complete the vortex.
Walkthrough
- 1From the start, proceed through the factory. In the cross-shaped room, save and enter the northern warp.
- 2Go west and north, then through the door into the conveyor belt room.
- 3Head north onto the first conveyor belt to find a note. Continue east and south on the belts to find another note with the passcode LLAB in the southwest corner.
- 4From the first note, go east and then south on the conveyor belts. In the southeast corner, go east through a hidden passage into the woods.
- 5In the woods, head southwest through a hidden path to find a chest with a Turbo Ether.
- 6Go east and follow a hidden path north to find a chest with 50000G.
- 7Continue south, then northwest to find a chest with a Megalixir.
- 8Continue south and east, then southeast through a hidden path to find a chest with the Apocalypse Arm weapon for Robo.
- 9Head north and east to find another Megalixir in a chest.
- 10Backtrack to the factory area. Go west on the conveyor to the starting point.
- 11Go north along two belts, then west and north. Finally, go west and enter the door to the next area.
- 12In the next room, go north through another door and head west. At the end of the hall, you will encounter patrolling robot guards.
- 13Sneak past the robot guards by moving into alcoves when they turn away. Watch their patterns to time your movements.
- 14Once across the aisles, enter the northwestern room. Go north through the long hall and check the computer panel to find the security systems. Enter the passcode BALL to disable the guards.
- 15Exit this room and carefully cross the aisles again to the far east. Enter the room to the southeast.
- 16Your current party will get trapped. Your inactive party members will come to the rescue. Make your way to the northeast in the conveyor room (south, east, north, and all the way east).
- 17In the northeast room, go north and step into the warp. Follow the warps in the east wing: west warp (get Magic Capsule), next warp (north), next warp (east), far east warp in the robot guard room, south warp, east warp.
- 18Go east to a chest containing a Regal Plate, then warp to the beginning. Follow the path back to the room with the door.
- 19Ensure Robo, Crono, or Magus are in your party. Enter the room and defeat the groups of enemies, including the Iron Maiden. Check the computer panel to disable the security lockdown.
- 20Return to your first group. Head west along the lower half of the room, avoiding guards, and enter the southwest doorway.
- 21Go north when the electricity stops. In the main area, defeat the Iron Maiden and Searcher. Continue north.
- 22In the far north, defeat two Iron Maidens. Step into the north warp to reach the grotto. Save and rest.
- 23Ensure Frog or Marle (recommended) and Lucca are in your party. Continue along the path.
- 24Ignore the first warp and continue until the scene with Lucca. Rearrange your party if needed (Crono, Lucca, Robo recommended).
- 25You will face a clone of Lucca and an Eggsterminator in a boss battle.
- 26After the battle, the clone merges with the real Lucca, permanently increasing her speed, magic, and stamina. Exit the area to complete the vortex.
