Part of the Xanadu series.

About Revival Xanadu, the game was released 10 years after the original Xanadu on PC-98. It's the first of a long list of game remakes by Falcom, and barely contains new materials compared to the original game. About the music though, only the main theme will be kept and a lot of new ones will be composed. The Windows version was ported by Unbalance and is considered mediocre.
