He went on to compose music for three Xak games along with Tadahiro Nitta: Xak: The Art of Visual Stage, Fray in Magical Adventure, and Xak II: The Rising of the Red Moon. During this time, he was working as a freelance composer. In 1991, after Fujioka had been hired as a director for Square, Sasai was invited to join the company as they needed composers to assist Nobuo Uematsu and Kenji Ito. His first assignment was to create the soundtrack to the Game Boy title Final Fantasy Legend III. Sasai composed the majority of the score, with director Fujioka handling four pieces.
