The story has received mixed reviews, with some praising its bold incorporation of real-world dictators and a compelling moral about perseverance, while others criticize it for being generic, bland, and filled with pointless quests. Some players found the narrative engaging and reminiscent of their favorite styles, but many felt it lacked depth and innovation, often comparing it unfavorably to previous titles in the genre. Overall, the storytelling quality varies significantly, with a divide between those who appreciate its themes and those who find it lacking.
“The story is amazing, and I think the implementation of real-world dictators was a bold and interesting step.”
“This seems like it would be the perfect game for me as it is the style and story I love the most.”
“Alright, so we're not in massive innovation of the genre territory here, but like the previous two parts of Last Heroes, it's a nice, basic RPG with minimal grinding/tedium and an enjoyable story.”
“The environments feel generic and pretty much identical, except with different tile sets. The dungeons feel like they've been made by a random generator, and the story and characters were bland, with the former also being pointless because Amelia's mother wasn't even in the continent.”
“The story is literally just doing random quests to know the prison's location, and then one of the quest givers becomes a villain at the end because he wanted them to die while doing the quests.”
“Straight up copy and paste of Last Heroes 2 with a pointless story.”

The music in the game is generally described as relaxing and enjoyable, providing a chill atmosphere that players appreciate, even if some find it repetitive due to reused tracks. While it serves as a decent distraction, it does not compensate for the game's more significant shortcomings.
“Gave us cool music to chill, balanced throughout!”
“However, the music was nice (even if there was quite a bit of reusing which makes it repetitive, I don't really mind), and at least it was a decent time waster when I needed a break.”
“I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”

“Like most RPG Maker shovelware and asset flips, the game features extremely low-quality, copy-pasted 2D retro pixel art, looks awful, and has even worse gameplay.”
