I got into rpg relatively late. I still remember a buddy telling me about them and taking the example of Summoner as an example. I was so curious I went to the video game store. Summoner 2 at the time had released and I got it. Though it is very action oriented, I really enjoyed it and it has kept a special place in my heart ever since. I'd give a lot to explore it again on pc. Especially since the worldbuilding of it was pretty crazy. I don't think I've ever seen something quite like it.
It's a hidden gem and I hope more people can discover it.
When I first played Summoner 2 I had a bit of a love/hate relationship with it. I was new to more action-heavy rpgs and really struggled with the mid/late game portions. But I absolutely loved the characters, world, and story. It's such a unique experience that I think about so often and honestly chase the same feelings the mid-game twist gave me. I still own my PS2 copy but would love nothing more than to have a more accessible way to replay it.
This game. A game spanning world upon worlds, while a great story unfolds with twists and turns as time goes by. Skills, gear, and Summons keep you hooked. Combat isn't super deep, but it doesn't have to be, it's a good time. This is a Myth given form (especially knowing the lore of the original Summoner game.) GOG please consider adding this gem.
Summoner 2 is a game that has a really special place in my heart. The original is widely available now but this one is still impossible to find. To this day I haven't found a game that has such a unique and original world with such imagination-inspiring lore. It's hard to put into words but the surreal, dream-like quality of the game and how so much of it is rooted in this idea of dabbling in the realms of the gods gives it this incredible cosmic feeling with a scale few other games can match. Please bring this back!
Great game. I would love to see THQ Nordic give this one a re-release. Not only is it a good follow up to the first Summoner, which is already here on GOG, but it has a lot of cool new characters as well. Maia is a great female protagonist, and her companions are all very fun and colorful. Yago from summoner 1 returns, and the new characters like Sangaril, Prince Neru, and Morbazon all have their own unique personalities and abilities. Morbazon is particularly cool looking. I like the setting of the game quite a bit, it's a unique fantasy setting with original races and cultures like the Munari and Odani which make the game stand out from all the games with D&D, Tolkien, and mythology inspired characters and settings.
This game means a lot to me. I used to play it with a friend that is no longer with us. I usually was the good gamer of the friend group, but for some reason something didn't click for me. My friend on the other hand, was great at it. He was so happy and had the biggest smile on his face when he helped me with a section that i was stuck. I never tried to become better at this game for this reason. Maybe now I will, for him. Miss you buddy.

Tales of the Unknown: Volume I - The Bard's TaleTales of the Unknown: Volume I, better known as "The Bard's Tale", is an RPG developed by Interplay Productions in 1985 originally for the Apple II. It was quickly ported to numerous other platforms and became widely successful. This was partly because it incorporated unprecedented 3D graphic design, featuring partly animated character portraits and engaging gameplay.
