Absolutely brilliant entry in The Legend of Heroes series. Everything is absolutely of high-caliber: the story ties up all loose ends in the Liberl arc extremely well, the music is a meticulous masterpiece, and the tweaked gameplay from the two prior games make this game’s combat the very best rendition of them.

The usage of the Moon, Star, and Sun doors and the dungeon running theme of the game were an excellent way of tying the whole story together. Each of the doors had a certain memory that explored the other important characters from the past two games, giving you insight to what exactly happened to those characters, all while not getting in the way of the story for the main protagonist, Kevin Graham, which made sense within the dungeon-based world.

There is no way a type of game stylized around the first two games in the arc could’ve done this idea justice; there are just too many mysteries surrounding too many characters. It would require too much jumping round between characters to uncover the unresolved tidbits from the first two games. Another approach would’ve been an episodic-styled type of game where each episode concentrated on a certain set of characters and their story was told.

For me, Trails in the Sky the 3rd is just the perfect conclusion for the Liberl arc. This game was really just that good !!
