Been eyeballing this game a bit since I loved the concept of EG1, but actually playing it felt cumbersome. In particular, the world domination portion was very frustrating. It was no fun waiting for a particular minion to get trained up which took forever due to low minion limit, generally slow and unresponsive minion AI (waiting for both the teacher and student minion to free up their schedule), and then the actual training process. Naturally after waiting like 30-60 minutes for all this to happen, you send them out on a quest and they fail it and likely all get killed in the process, causing you to repeat everything. All these things feel like timers that bad phone games have today.

It seems they've upped the minion limit as a baseline, and I hope with the new world domination system consuming minions means it's a guaranteed success at least.

My one complaint is my inability to tag groups.

If it's anything like the first game, does ctrl+click on the tag work to apply it to the whole group?
