Golden Sun: The Broken Seal
Golden Sun: The Broken Seal (黄金の太陽 開かれし封印, Ōgon no Taiyō Hirakareshi Fūin) is a turn-based adventure role-playing game developed by Camelot Software Planning and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance in August 2001 in Japan. The game was released as just Golden Sun in November 2001 in North America and February 2002 in Europe.
The game is the first in the Golden Sun series, a spiritual successor to Sega's Shining series on which many Camelot staff had previously worked.[1] Golden Sun has many artistic similarities to Shining Wisdom, Shining the Holy Ark, and Shining Force III. Among the game's returning staff are artists Shin Yamanouchi, Hiroshi Kajiyama, and Fumihide Aoki, composer Motoi Sakuraba, writer Hiroyuki Takahashi, and programmers Yasuhiro Taguchi and P. E. Jareth Hein.
