What is an 'RTS'?

What does 'point-and-click' mean?

'Point and click' refers to any game where the movement and placement of objects and characters in the game world relies on moving a cursor to that point and issuing an instruction. Some modern strategy games have opted for real-time controls, but many still use a point-and-click approach - console games meanwhile often use a hybrid of the two.
