The story is a continuation of the Revue Starlight franchise, focusing on beloved characters and their growth as they prepare for a play titled "El Dorado." While it offers satisfying character arcs and emotional moments, particularly for certain characters, some reviewers found the narrative repetitive and reliant on prior knowledge from the anime and movie. Overall, it serves as a heartfelt epilogue for fans, though it may not resonate as deeply with newcomers to the series.
- “This is a game made for fans of the Revue Starlight franchise, specifically the main Seisho storyline, and with that in mind, it knocks it out of the park.”
- “I was most compelled by Futaba, Junna, and Nana's arcs in particular, as I felt that their stories were written exceptionally well, without retreading too much on past plot threads. I'm also very fond of the development of the Class B girls; it's really nice to see Amemiya and Masai have their own heartfelt moments and also see their strong dedication to the stage.”
- “A story about art, moving on, giving your all, revenge, and love.”
- “I also am not sure if I really felt that the events regarding Hikari were excellent enough to justify her presence in the narrative at all, wherein the thing that most audiences are interested in is the relationship between the people in the story and their arcs; she and Judy both don’t present much of anything to be interested in.”
- “I found the story to be repetitive and lacking up until the Mahiru/Nana route, and I found the plot twist at the end to be very damning in terms of the remainder of the Revue Starlight franchise.”
- “Unfortunately, it's definitely not for people who haven't experienced Revue Starlight in any other form, since the plot builds off of both the movie and the anime.”

The music in "El Dorado" is praised for its quality and emotional impact, consistent with the high standards of the Revue Starlight series. However, some reviewers expressed disappointment that the songs did not receive the spotlight they deserved, lacking the prominence they had in previous adaptations. Overall, while the original soundtrack and performances are well-received, the limited playtime for songs detracts from their brilliance.
- “Music is also fantastic but that's not new for the series, and the ending was really well made!”
- “The music is amazing just like you'd expect from the revue series and the CGs were surprisingly more solid than I expected.”
- “The new OP, ED, insert/revue songs and the surrounding OST during the story have stuck with me upon first listen, and I can't wait to have them on streaming platforms as well, but I'm also pretty pleased to be able to listen to most of the tracks in-game by a separate menu.”
- “My biggest gripe with it was that the songs didn’t have the highlight they deserved, the highlight they have in the anime and the movie. It didn’t even have the highlight they had in Revue Starlight Re:Live, because the songs have little to no time to play, to show their brilliance.”
- “Random sounds, wack compressed soundtrack. There are multiple occasions where the girls sound way too far from the microphones.”
- “As much as I'm enjoying this, I cannot recommend it in any capacity considering how central the songs are to the franchise as a whole.”

Overall, the narrative successfully blends humor and warmth, creating a deeply engaging emotional experience.
- “I was most compelled by Futaba, Junna, and Nana's arcs in particular, as I felt that their stories were written exceptionally well, without retreading too much on past plot threads. Their stories touched my heart the most. I'm also very fond of the development of the Class B girls; it's really nice to see Amemiya and Masai have their own heartfelt moments and also see their strong dedication to the stage.”
- “A beautiful and heartwarming goodbye letter to the series; it’s everything I ever wanted to see in Revue Starlight.”
- “The ending made me cry 10/10.”

The optimization of the game is generally praised for its stellar voice performances, allowing seiyuu to showcase their range effectively. However, there are noted issues with audio engineering and recording quality that detract from the overall experience. The game features a relatively short playtime of around 16 hours, with multiple routes and engaging content.
- “The voice performances are more stellar than ever and the seiyuu really get to showcase their range across the in-universe roles.”
- “A relatively short (16hr total playtime personally for main story, but I did listen to every song in full) kukugumi victory lap with 4 routes (last being the longest), around 15 CGs, and great songs and voice performances (obviously).”
- “My favorite performances are Saijo Claudine's and Isurugi Futaba's.”

While some scenes are described as hilarious and heartwarming, the portrayal of Judy Knightley as a "funny foreigner" feels somewhat forced and unconvincing to some players.

- “Continued depth created for our beloved characters, with some hilarious and heartwarming scenes.”
