These minions serve as the equivalent of an army in a more traditional strategy game, with one big caveat: You don't have direct control over them. Instead of clicking on a squad and sending them to a certain point, you simply move your demigod and all of his or her devotees will trail behind, ready to attack anything in your path.

Before playing the game, this was one of my biggest concerns. Anything less than fantastic programming would send your pals running in random directions, instead of towards the appropriate melee. The good news is that either Gas Powered Games' attention to detail or the simplicity of each Arena ensures that the computer-controlled masses almost always do their job. I did count two instances when my posse ran off to some remote location, but considering that I've been playing the beta for almost three days straight, that's a very small number of glitches.
