{{quote|source=?|console=iOS / Android|quote=
You are someone who is not happy unless they are giving their all&hellip;

And you are capable of enduring great hardship without faltering or losing heart&hellip;

You prefer to solve your problems by yourself rather than burden others with them&hellip;

But this self-reliance has given rise to conceitedness, which leads you to make mistakes&hellip;

But even in the face of such failures, you are never daunted or fazed&hellip; It is here that your greatest strength lies&hellip;

Failure to you is merely the opportunity to seek a better solution&hellip; You are truly a &lsquo;tough cookie&rsquo;&hellip;

In the ''Dragon Quest III'' remakes, tough cookie is a personality that improves strength and resilience growth, but reduces agility, wisdom, and luck growth.

At the start of the game, the hero becomes a tough cookie by receiving the final test of character in the forest. Before leaving the test, the hero must push all forty boulders to the old man.

Other party members have a chance to be a tough cookie when scouted at [[Patty's Party Planning Place]], depending on their stat bonuses.

An existing character becomes a tough cookie temporarily while wearing the [[weightlifter's belt]] accessory.
