A version of Solomon's Key notable for being only one of two silver cartridges (in contrast to Sega's own gold cartridges) released in Japan for the Master System. Both of these games were produced by Salio, which was essentially a dummy company by Tecmo that they used to get past Nintendo's exclusivity policies.3

Hidden Credit#

Present at $1CC04 in the ROM.

TECMO M.SAITOH

This refers to Mikio Saito, who, at the time, worked for Tecmo, and likely worked on the game's audio.

Soundtrack Differences#

Solomon no Kagi for the Sega Master System, like some other games, was released with additional support for the FM add-on in addition to the default PSG chip. However, rather than just being a straight conversion, the FM version has some new tracks not present in the PSG soundtrack, in addition to expanding some of the existing songs to new lengths.

Level Select#

At the title screen, enter EMIGEN as the Faerie's message. This also makes the player invincible.
