Exile II Janen no Jishō is an action/RPG published by Telenet and is the sequel to Exile Toki No Hazama released in 1991. The world of Chaltar is at stake and Sadorā (aka Sadler) returns as the main protagonist and titular character of the series. Nearly, as his first task is to look for his friends in the nearby towns. Unlike the previous episodes of the series, Sadler is here one of several possible playable characters - the cute but lethal Rūmī (aka Rumi), the strong Kindi and the mystic Fakīru (aka Fakhyle) follow our hero in his quest and can be controlled. Exile II Janen no Jishō follows the same formula laid out by its predecessors and the game alternates between fighting and exploring. The first part gets Sadorā to walk around towns, talk to villagers or purchase new equipment. The fighting phases are classic hack-and-slash action scenes set in countless hostile locations - there the player fight enemies, bosses and earn precious experience points and gold coins.

Choose from 5 different characters as you hack, slash, and bach your way through foreign lands, putrid pyramids, and deadly dungeons while enjoying intense cinema sequences along the way. Will Sadler be able to unlock the secret of the ancient tower and stop the insanity that is spreading throughout the land?

Exile II Janen no Jishō is definitely a step above its predecessor - graphics are nicer and sharper, the action a lot more interesting and the four playable characters really add some spice to the gameplay. But, for me, the game's biggest drawback is how unfair Exile II is to the player. The game's collision detection is imprecise and spotty - you never sure if you'll hit an enemy and things often become annoyingly confusing. The difficulty is uneven throughout so parts will be extremely easy while others will leave you pulling your hair out (interestingly, the American version is overall a lot harder). Once again, the Japanese version is way cheaper than the American game - it's up to you if you want to spend $100+ for English dubbed cinematics (despite their excellent quality) and English text (really useful if you want to get around the game's menus). An average game despite the beauty of its animated cutscenes and the fascinating soundtrack.
