Just played this game, it was pretty fun, not as hard I imagined it would be, although I looked at a map for the final level.
How are the other Xanadu games? Worth giving a shot? And the Dragon Slayer games they originated from?
They're pretty great, though Faxanadu is a bit "casualized" if you will. You might also want to check out

Welcome to Heaven (MSX)
There seems to be quite a lot of these games on the MSX which is why it's starting to surpass PCE-Duo on my list of next console to buy.
The Dragon Slayer games are all pretty different from each other. Faxanadu is closest to Romancia, Drasle Family and Sorcerian.
Xanadu is a top down RPG with just a side scrolling overworld.

PC-88 is what the games were made on.
Wait for the translation.

Of what? Xanadu is practically completely in English. Dragon Slayer has no text to speak of.
Romancia, Sorcerian, Legacy of the Wizard and Legend of Heroes have a translated version and nobody is working on Lord Monarch or Legend of Heroes 2 from what I know.
Not to mention that not everyone is dependent on translations.
