About the game
Summoners have toppled empires and challenged gods. They are venerated as saviours 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 control the forces they unleash.

What players say
I love this game. It's better on steam than emulation even with hd textures. I highly recommend looking for hd textures for the steam version via nexusmods as they help a lot. There is also a patch for better aspect ratios. My biggest gripe is lack of controller support and having to dl mods to get the game to look decent. But the story and gameplay are rad.

A janky and nostalgic classic with a surprisingly in depth religion for an old rpg.
Classic game from my childhood both this and the second one were amazing I would kill to get either or both remastered.
Steam reviews, mixed to its ratio and rotated daily. Opinions are theirs.
