Wars and Warriors: Joan of Arc is a mixture of strategy and action. At the game's start you simply control Joan from a third person perspective. One's first impression would be of a 3-D action RPG, as much time is spent hacking and slashing the various enemies that cross Joan’s path. You use the tried and true WASD keys to move Joan about; the mouse controls the direction. The left mouse button executes a light attack, and the right button performs a hard attack. These buttons can be used in various combinations to perform combo attacks. Once Joan acquires some arrows, a tap of the Z button puts her in first person mode.
