I started this game expecting it to be yet another run of the mill RPG, but found myself pleasantly surprised. It’s a rather neat action RPG, featuring a cool intro, neat music, and most importantly: a hero with a sword so high you can’t get over it, so low you can’t get under it, and so wide you can’t get around it. Well, perhaps that might be exaggerating slightly, but it is about the same size of him and big enough to hit stuff next to the hero when he swings it. Anyway, this is a better than average title.

This is a complete translation patch for the NES action RPG Grand Master. It was a joint effort between myself and aishsha.

The translation has been updated for original bug fixes, translation bug fixes and script changes.
