A power too great for mortals to harness, a quest too great to pass upon.

Summoner, a brilliant console-style RPG that starts small and unfolds into an amazingly complex and exciting experience that just keeps on giving, is available 20% off on GOG.com. That's only $4.79 for the first week.

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. Born with the mark of the Summoner, Joseph possesses a power greater than emperors and gods. As a child, he summoned a demon to save his village, and watched in horror as those he loved were destroyed. Nine years later, the armies of Orenia invade, and Joseph must confront the prophecy he was born to fulfill.

In Summoner, you traverse a beautiful, completely original world spanning two continents. You'll summon up to 16 different creatures, such as minotaurs, golems, dragons, and try to control them in combat. You'll be casting spectacular spells and wield an extensive arsenal of weapons and armor. With the large gameworld to explore, memorable NPCs to meet and befriend, an interesting combat system that adds some extra fun and strategy into battles, and--most importantly--a great story to tell, this 2000 classic game feels a lot like a great jRPGs, but comes in its own anime&grind-free flavor.

Fulfill the prophecy, reach for the ultimate power, and take a shot at vanquishing evil before you become a part of it in Summoner, for only $4.79 on GOG.com. The 20% off special release discount offer lasts until Tuesday, March 4, at 10:59AM GMT.
Have it on PC and PS, nice game at a good price.
Game play videos are always welcomed whenever a new game is released.

tinyE: Well I'm playing it right now and it seems you click on the baddie and then you can take your hand off the mouse. Games like Diablo, Torchlight, and a lot of D&D game require a click for every swing/strike.
If you're using auto-combo, switch it to manual. You can chain very long combos AND learn special moves if you time your melee attacks right. Even the magic users have useful moves to learn that way.
Evidence of a good game is when there are so many different and fun ways to hack, fry, and pound people. Clearly I've purchased a winner here! Thanks everyone who responded. :D

SCPM: Now the catalog says 704 games. What's happening?
Nothing lasting, it seems. I saw 703 and 704 at different times earlier, but now it's back to 702.

A) my basement is flooding
B) my dog just shit all over my bed
C) I'm trying to figure out if I can remap the camera controls for the keyboard

Once I've gotten through A,B, and C, I assure you I will move onto D) playing the damn thing.
Another good one from the (realatively recent) past, keep up the good work GOG!
I have this on disc somewhere but never could get into it. Might have to give it another go.

And that is better in my opinion. You don't have to rape your mouse by clicking like an insane for every single standart strike.

Move your bed to your basement, thus using the flood to clean the mess your dog made. That's A and B sorted.

That must be why you make the big bucks. :D
Awesome! Never got this working back in the day, now is my chance.
So freaking Owned (as in bought)

will dl later to save bandwidth though (off-peak hours)
I was looking forward to buy Summoner from GOG but as i won't buy any games here until i've seen how you handle the forthcoming regional pricing i'll pass.
I already have it on a magazine CD so it's no loss for me anyway. :)
