Maybe Chrono Trigger.

Cyberpunk 2077 is a 7/10. Get over it.

I didn't like Chrono triggers as a kid because one of the characters on the cover art was casting a spell they didn't know how to use in game

It's a "RPG" in the same sense that Monopoly lets you roleplay as a slumlord scottish terrier, I guess...

My top picks are DQ5 (better than Chrono Trigger box art, imo)

And Ogre Battle

The FF4 box you posted was not released in North America where all of us GFAQS posters live. You can't use that.

They're doing Frost Arc / Arc Impulse which is in the game. I know what you mean though. It doesn't make sense Marle uses fire for that one tech and it's obviously in the game just because of the art.

But they are seen fighting in the snow, and snow is only found on Death Peak where Crono isn't part of the group for a specific reason . Plus when does Marle ever wear a purple outfit?

Not on the original boxart.

Fixed those for you guys.

Also, I would agree with FFVI being among the best, but it was already posted.



Shin Megami Tensei's boxart was pretty cool, showing off a bunch of recruitable demons.
