Faxanadu NES

Enter the world of Faxanadu, home to the adventurer with no name. Where many NES games fall into neat categories, “Faxanadu” straddles the line between roleplaying and platform games. Your adventurer begins the game returning to Eolis, his Elven home, only to find it under attack by Dwarves. As the hero, you have to adventure through a series of overworld levels to defeat the Evil One. While much of the gameplay follows standard platform tropes, it also includes many elements of roleplaying games including interactive NPCs. Rather than a save function which the NES does not support, it relies on a series of passwords you have to write down, so you can keep your progress from session to session.

Controls: Gamepad/Joystick

Unlock doors of
legend on your journey
through Faxanadu.
ou are the elves' last hope.
Outside the town walls lurk
monsters with the power to
destroy anything in their path. Inside
the walls, water and time are running
out. Soon the ancient elf town of Eolis
will vanish into eternity.
Only you can save Eolis. No one
else dares to venture beyond the walls,
onto the World Tree, where towns and
fortresses precariously await the whims
of fate at the hands of the Evil.
You are searching for the water
source and for an antidote to the poison
that makes the water undrinkable. To
find them you'll need gold and food and
magic, speed with a sword...and luck.
Every town holds a new mystery,
every fortress a new danger. Merchants
will sell you magic and valuable tools,
but it's up to you to figure out what you
need. Long, secret mantras help you slip
through the mists, but will you survive
the next challenge?
This is Faxanadu, the legend, the
adventure—the incredible journey
on the World Tree.
