Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
From the creators of the award-winning Descent and FreeSpace series comes Summoner, an original, graphically brilliant role-playing game. Summoner crafts a unique look and complex story in an intriguing fantasy setting. Summoners have toppled empires and challenged gods. They are venerated as saviors and feared as destroyers. With rings crafted by the ancient Khosani, the gifted can call forth demons, dragons, and elementals, but only the strongest can hope to control the forces they unleash.

The player takes the role of Joseph, who has yet to embrace or control his power as one of the last remaining Summoners. To save his kingdom from annihilation, Joseph and his reluctant companions must journey to the lost empire of Ikaemos, the island monastery of Iona, and the forest labyrinth of Liangshan. Their quest for the Summoner's rings is the only hope for salvation.

Summoning is an ability unique to Joseph. As you progress through the game, Joseph will find ancient rings that can harness his summoning ability. Each of these rings has a specific property (darkness, flame, light, etc.). When used by themselves, or in combinations, they have the power of summoning a creature to Joseph's side. In multiplayer mode, Summoner is a party-based hack-and-slash type of game. The players can travel from level to level, killing monsters and collecting items and experience. Along their journey, players will also complete short quests.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great story, but could have been better presented, 19 April 2003
Summoner was a good fun RPG, which allows you to control up to 5 players, one of which can be a demon or monster of your choice, and some of the options are pretty good!
The range of enemies is wide and the battles are engaging mently, though no tense action occurs. Most of the fighting is automated, but there's still scope for plenty of user intervention.
The story was excellent, and took some interesting twists, although it could have been made better use of. Some of the drama was wasted in places.
Over all, this was a great game if you you like a bit of thinking, and you don't require too much action. Well worth it.
