The story of "Last Embryo" is generally well-received, with many praising its engaging characters, nostalgic feel reminiscent of classic SNES JRPGs, and a mix of heartwarming and comedic moments. However, some critiques highlight issues with pacing, translation quality, and a short runtime that leaves the narrative feeling incomplete. Overall, while the storytelling has its flaws, it captivates players and sets the stage for future expansions in related titles.
“The story is good, with my only complaint being that it feels like a prologue by the time it ends (I sincerely hope the second game gets completed soon), and the characters are great - with all of them being likable to varying extents.”
“Overall, it's quite a charming story with a lot of feel-good moments and some comedy mixed in.”
“This was somehow one of the best storylines in a JRPG I've ever experienced.”
“The reason why it's hard to lose is because the game is incredibly easy, to the point it just feels like a vehicle for the story to progress.”
“The real weirdness comes in the story; I feel like the writer had an idea for a big epic story halfway through making this and just couldn't contain themselves, deciding to smash it into the last hour rather than pace it properly or devote a whole game to it.”
“Bad story, bad translation; art is okay, but there is not enough of it.”
