Faxanadu came out in 1989 for the Nintendo Entertainment System, developed by Hudson Soft. It was part of that wave of side-scrolling action RPGs that tried to bring a deeper, more exploratory feel to the console.

You control an adventurer returning to a dwarven town poisoned by a toxic mist. Your goal is to climb the World Tree, defeat the evil behind the calamity, and restore water to the land. You explore the world screen by screen, fighting monsters with a sword that you can upgrade, and later a bow. You collect money to buy better armor and magic rings, and you delve into dungeons and towers to find key items. The pacing is deliberate; you often backtrack through areas as you gain new abilities. The difficulty is steady, with some tough enemy placements and platforming sections that demand careful jumps. Playing it feels like a slow, steady climb through a world that is quietly falling apart.
