It's definitely in the thousands. I remember playing games in the 80s with such mechanics. A lot of text based Roguelike games had similar summon mechanics. The Golem spell in the original Diablo would be covered too. It's just mind boggling that this patent wasn't rejected outright.

Thank you for helping to keep GamingOnLinux civil and safe!
