It seems those uncanny folks over at IGN have finally gotten around to reviewing Summoner. Here's some of what they had to say:

The thing that makes Summoner so fun is that it's a great bridge between console games and RPG adventuring. The base structure and storyline is very classic western fantasy stuff, with a million mythical locations to remember, race histories to hear about, not to mention creation stories and gods shudder at. You'll level up and have the option to pick which of each character's stats to bump up, you have a nice drag n' drop interface to put new items on your characters with, and you can press the space bar at any time and give yourself time to select spells, or use items without worrying about realtime limits.

Overall, Summoner scores a solid 7.6, though it's been brought down for numerous bugs and crashes. If you have any trouble with Summoner, be sure to visit the bulletin board to see if you can get some help. Also make sure you download the newest patch through the auto-update.
