What's Hot: Decent storyline and plot; Addictive turn-based gameplay
What's Not: Waaaaay too much dialogue

The game throws a lot of curveballs, too, including missions where you've got to be crafty or a potential ally will die before you can rescue them, or missions where you're challenged to cross the map without losing a single character. Most of the time fallen allies will be hale and hearty after the battle ends, but Jeanne is a challenging game. Expect to lose a lot. As the game progresses you'll eventually find yourself juggling up to 14 different characters -- including monsters and other strange beings. Up to seven can be played on each battlefield.
Jeanne d'Arc offers solid and polished tactical gameplay with terrific artwork and an engagingly bizarre storyline. Can you hear the Voices? They're whispering, "Buy it."
