The Korean developed medieval weapons making game, Iron Master: Legendary Blacksmith, will debut in Japan first. Genterprise announced they will release the Nintendo DS game this September.
Iron Master, jokingly called “Forging Papa“, puts players in the shoes of a blacksmith. You create weapons via touch screen mini-games. What separates Iron Master from Cooking Mama is players also run a store. Computer controlled heroes stop by and purchase weapons based on their class. See the blue haired dude with the bandanna? He’s a rogue looking for a dirk.
A North American release for Iron Master has not been announced, but Barunson Creative is probably planning one. An English trailer came out even though a publisher has yet to be announced. Perhaps, Atlus will pick Iron Master up. They have ties to Genterprise and re-localized Crimson Gem Saga which was also made in Korea.
