The Golden Compass is an action-adventure game developed by Shiny Entertainment and published by Sega. The game is based on the novel-adapted movie of the same name. It was released in December before the movie for most major consoles. Based on the book and movie, players assume the
role of Lyra Belacqua and Iorek Byrnison in Lyra's attempt to save her uncle, Lord Asriel, and friend, Roger from the General Oblation Board. The Golden Compass did poorly across all platforms. While the Wii version came in with the best numbers (17,000 sales in the first week), they were still pretty lackluster.
