2''Seal Online'' is a [[AllegedlyFreeGame free-to-play]] MMORPG from South Korea developed by Grigon Entertainment (Aka known as Garam and Baram), which also developed ''VideoGame/FusionFall'', and is mostly published by YNK Interactive (Now known as PLAYWITH Interactive). It is based on the 2000 RPG PC game ''Seal: Travelers of Destiny''. It was released way back in 2003 for Korea, then in other regions. It was originally going to be released in the United States in 2005 but the website was shut down without notice. Two years later, [[UnCanceled it came back]] to the USA successfully. When ownership of ''Seal Online'' was transferred to YNK in 2007, the game continued running even when Grigon went out of business in 2009, to where it runs today in most regions. The game got rebooted on 2010 to clear every user data for the Eternal Destiny update. The game was once again in a major update on June 2013, as ''Blades of Destiny''.

4The name of the game probably comes from a wizardry performed in the game's backstory used against the Balies. The game is a typical point-and-click MMORPG game set in the land of Shiltz featuring eight classes in which players must defeat the Bales, monsters created by Balie's magic. The game has a combo system usually used by melee classes by using the A, S, and D keys.
