How can I play it with Keyboard

[Good Chinese Commie is dead one]

Hi guys, I have just gotten the 1945, which is one of my favor when I was young. How can i play with keyboard, because when I turn it on, there are no respond when I press the keys on the keyboard. Thanks

Yeah, wish I'd have known that. There are some options to set keyboard controls on the configuration menu, but it doesn't look particularly user friendly as far as what each button does.

Thanks man, I found it too after I purchased a joystick.

I went and dug out my old gamepad - hopefully it'll work... :)

so whats the verdict on this, I cant even enter the menu using my keyboard. What am I doing wrong ? is a gamepad actually required to play this ?
