Shining Wisdom for Sega Saturn

Shining Wisdom is an action-adventure entry in the broader Shining series, developed by Sonic! Software Planning and Camelot. Unlike its tactical RPG predecessors, this title delivers real-time action gameplay with a puzzle-heavy design. Players control Mars, a young squire determined to stop the resurrection of a dark god threatening the kingdom of Odegan. The game’s top-down perspective, orb-based ability system, and narrative ties to Shining Force II make it a unique bridge in the franchise.

Key Features:

  • Real-time combat and movement in a richly designed 2D overworld and dungeon system.

  • Combine magical orbs and items to unlock new powers and explore hidden areas.
