Well, I'm creating one myself, and I can tell you this: your setting is not so easy for an iPhone game.

The iPhone's good at arcade games and endless games, not RPG's and medieval stuff, really. I mean, there are like 2 good RPG's on the iPhone, which I can't even recall, so that's saying something.

What language are you writing in?

okay thank you for the advice.
im speaking in english and do you have any`ideas for a good game for ipod along the lines of sword fighting and such?

He asked what LANGUAGE you're WRITING it in. Not what language you SPEAK.
I.e. what code are you using for the game?

You can't create iPhone games without programming. There's no such thing as a program that does everything for you. You'll have to code everything yourself and there are only tools such as SDKs that can make the job a little easier, but still, there's no software for this.

If you have a Mac, it's simple, you just register as an Apple Developer and you're free to go. If you don't have a Mac, it's a little bit complicated, but there are tools such as the DragonFireSDK which you can use to create iPhone games on Windows.

Well actually, we are considering launching our RPG Maker style Windows Application which creates RPG Games for iDevices. Its just a matter of how many people would be interested.

but this guy needs it in less than a year, completely finished. Chances are that this wouldn't help.

Also, this guy has a total lack of understanding of how difficult it is to make a decent game, especially from scratch (hence the tormenting)...

I found away to make a ios game without scripting if your still trying, there is a ios stencyl beta available now. http://www.stencyl.com/istencyl/. And if your looking at good rpg ios games look at the Zenonia games.
