Description

In Summoner, players adventure as Joseph, a young farmer who has inherited the power of summoning. With magical rings, a Summoner calls forth powerful demons, dragons, and elementals to aid him on his quest. The story begins with the invasion of Joseph's homeland by the armies of the Emperor of Orenia. Having learned of the Summoner's gift, the Emperor has dispatched his soldiers to kill Joseph, who must learn to master his power or face certain death. Searching for the rings, Joseph and his companions travel to the lost empire of Ikaemos, the island monastery of Iona, the forest labyrinth of Liangshan, and other fantastic locales. Summoner evokes a rich, detailed universe filled with unique characters, spells, and monsters. Breathtaking graphics and a user-friendly interface create an immersive gaming experience for players of varying skill levels. Summoner will also feature an innovative, party-based multiplayer mode.
