    Will Latok be able to conquer the Tower of Gazel? Make full use of your support members to overcome formidable foes and tricky puzzles!

    "Xak: The Tower of Gazzel," released by MicroCabin in 1991 in Japan, is a top-view action RPG. As indicated by the lack of a numbered title, it is officially considered a side story. However, it still features Latok as the protagonist, along with familiar characters like Frey and Pixie, and is set one year after "II." In that sense, playing the first game beforehand might enhance the experience.

    This time, Latok sets out to conquer the mysterious and monster-infested Tower of Gazzel. As a side story, the game introduces a slightly unique system within the series. Notably, there is no level-up system, meaning players don’t need to spend time grinding for experience points and can focus purely on progressing through the game. Instead, character power-ups are obtained through items.

    Another standout feature is the support member system, where players can choose an adventure companion. There are five support members, each with unique abilities—Pixie excels in healing and trap disarmament, while Frey specializes in magic. Strategically switching members based on the situation is key to success. If you find yourself stuck, trying a different companion might be the key to progressing.
