Chrono Cross

Chrono Cross is a JRPG classic in which Serge hops between two parallel worlds while uncovering his own fate. Over 40 recruitable characters, an unusual element-based combat system instead of standard leveling, and a superb soundtrack set it apart.

Valkyrie Profile

As the valkyrie Lenneth you recruit fallen heroes' souls for the coming battle of Ragnarok. It blends a turn-based combat system with combo timing, 2D platforming dungeons, Norse mythology and multiple endings.
