Revival Xanadu is a remake of Xanadu: Dragon Slayer II. The remake distinguishes itself with the more detailed, graphically more advanced character portraits and backgrounds in the various places of interest (inns, temples, shops, etc.).

This kind of game probably only appeals to a very specific subset of people, but it certainly is more than just a novelty to play for an hour and then drop. Really pleased with the purchase.

I'm almost certainly a moron for even considering trying out this game and thinking I'll be able to enjoy it in the year 2025, but dammit I've been watching a lot of Basement Brothers recently and it's 7 bucks on eShop.
