@Pokemani dont play Zelda 2 either but you should get this gameits not the same as Zelda 2, thought this was cool to put here...http://slipgunk.deviantart.com/art/Faxanadu-II-142583320?q=gallery%3Aslipgunk%2F6203056&qo=6.

The box art looks a bit like Zelda, but otherwise, this game craps all over Zelda II. But it seems like the game gets alot better if you commit to it. Great condition. This makes me so sad to hear Konami is bad about this, because all I want is a new Zombies Ate My Neighbors game. Except for the removed crosses, of course. The game adds a little bit of extra depth in that you can buy better equipment as you reach new towns, and it's highly suggested you do so, as each new weapon, spell, set of armour and shield is twice as effective as the last one.

Please make sure that you are posting in the form of a question. @Banana_Jane: Although Faxanadu was actually released before Zelda II I think the comparison is completely valid, aside from the lack of an overhead overworld, the games are similar enough to be comparable. Setting off from your hometown Eolis, you've got to climb all the way up the tree, going through many dungeons and enemy-inhabited places to eventually reach the Evil One's stronghold and give him what-for. An 8 is an apt score. The game plays pretty much exactly like the sidescrolling action sections in Zelda II: you don't just have to worry about defeating enemies with your weapons and magic, you also have to carefully cross gaps, find keys and recover important items. I was hoping for at least a 9, but I'd give it a 10.This and The Guardian Legend are the best games on the NES imo.

Where many NES games fall into neat categories, “Faxanadu” straddles the line between roleplaying and platform games. If you're a fan of platformers, it's definitely worth 500 points. But at least you get the opportunity to raise gold and buy that early "death" spell (4000g, if I recall). One of my all time favorite games. I've beat the game a handful of times since I was about 8 years old. It didn't look like much to me. If it's basically Zelda 2 without the flaws it must be pretty good.
The box art looks a bit like Zelda, but otherwise, this game craps all over Zelda II. But it seems like the game gets alot better if you commit to it. Great condition. This makes me so sad to hear Konami is bad about this, because all I want is a new Zombies Ate My Neighbors game. Except for the removed crosses, of course. The game adds a little bit of extra depth in that you can buy better equipment as you reach new towns, and it's highly suggested you do so, as each new weapon, spell, set of armour and shield is twice as effective as the last one.
