The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd

Widely considered the most challenging title in Legend of Heroes series.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd is a Japanese role-playing video game by Nihon Falcom. It serves as the third entry, and epilogue, to the Trails in the Sky trilogy of video games. Half a year after the events of Trails in the Sky Second Chapter, Liberl has settled into peace once again—but even during peaceful times, there are many among the distinguished and fortunate burning with greed thanks to the influence of ancient artifacts. The game plays similarly to its predecessors, a role-playing video game with turn-based battles, but this time enemies have affinities to the three higher elements of time, space and mirage. Other additions are the turn bonuses of “rush”, allowing the player to take two actions at once, “guard”, which nullifies any damage, “vanish”, which makes a target disappear for a few turns, and “death”, which gives the attack the effect of an instant death.

Game Features:

  • A More Personal Adventure. Trails in the Sky has become a fan favorite for thoughtfully written characters down to its NPCs, and for its final installment further focuses on fleshing out its playable cast via Moon and Star doors found as the story progresses.
  • One More from Falcom Sound Team jdk. Nihon Falcom is known for its brilliant music, and the Trails series has never been an exception, with the 3rd adding dozens of new tracks to keep players engaged as they journey through Phantasma.
  • Familiar Tactics, Brutal Combat. Widely considered the most challenging title in the series, players are encouraged to iterate upon the combat style they’ve come to know in the 3rd’s predecessors by either enjoying its in-depth story on Easy or crying with frustration on its unforgiving Nightmare difficulty.
  • Even More Olivier. As if two Sky games was enough Olivier.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd Review

8 Total Score
Very Good

Trails in the Sky the 3rd brings the ultimate closure to the trilogy as it wraps up any important plot points that might have been missed in FC and SC. Mysterious, claustrophobic, and psychedelic --- this is undoubtedly the most unorthodox game in The Legend of Heroes series. When a lot of the primary progression of the game involves trekking through dungeons that are, for the most part, fairly straightforward, having a high level of input over your team composition and strategy is fairly engaging. There are initially only two playable characters, but more and more join your party at a steady pace throughout the game (16 in total). The characters are beautifully well-rounded and their interactions with each other downright hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking. I recommend playing through First Chapter to Third Chapter at your own pace and fall in love with the story as you go! If you liked the first Legend Of Heroes game then this evolution is a must have addition to your collection.

Very Good
