Jeanne D'Arc is a solid strategy game that will be a pleasure for fans of the genre. However, if you're not a fan of the strategy genre, this game won't do much to change that. Althought the difficulty level will be easy for those that are experienced in the genre, newcomers might have some trouble playing through the game. It does a good job of balancing combat and the graphics are nice to look at, especially the anime-rendered cutscenes. The storyline is marginal. The characters just don't feel like they come to life and some are just plain annoying to look at. The skill combining system and the transformations are the finer points of the game and they really add some variety to the game. If you're looking for a great strategy game such as FF Tactics or Disgaea, you won't find it with this game but the price tag of $29.99 and an enjoyable experience makes this game a worthy buy for any PSP owner.
