Walkthrough
At first - cold steel. Destroy the snowmen with your club (default key responsible for hit - Space), then follow the escaping children. Use the magic (default key - Alt) to fire the rockets, which you would find nearby.
Go further so you can get your first Minions. Head for the exclamation mark which is shown on the radar, on the bottom left hand corner of the screen.
Continue the journey until you've got to the closed gate. The guard [1], despite the fact that he's drunk, won't let you enter the city. Fortunately the girl called Kelda will help you.
Follow Kelda, she will lead you to the snowy fortress, which is built by some local kids. Command your Minions to get to the building and attack the children (click at the same time the left and the right mouse button). After you have got rid of the enemies, fire the rocket which is nearby. (Or: If you get rid of the enemies, fire the rocket which is nearby).
The rocket will destroy the barricade so you will be able to go to the next part of the level. On your way you will see a hut, where children will be hiding [2]. Command your Minions to steal children's clothes (push Shift and click the left mouse button). After you've done this, come back to the guarded (by the drunken man) gate.
You will get to the city. Head for the rocket [3]. It is placed in the centre. Use the magic to fire the fireworks which are located near the guards. There will be a chaos for a while and the cut-scene will turn on in a moment. When it has finished, follow Kelda to the walls. There you will see another movie.
After you have finish watching the cut-scene, you'll be outside the city. Turn left to get away from Imperial forces. You will meet other Minions and a few legionnaires on your way. Don't engage yourself, make your Minions fight the enemy soldiers instead (click the left mouse button).
Go ahead all the time and get rid of a small legionnaires' camp. You'll notice that the path which you should follow has been blocked by the pile of stones.
You should use the catapult which is located nearby to remove the pile [4]. Send 10 Minions to the catapult and then sit at the controls of it. At first, you should eliminate soldiers who are following the track on the right, and then you can turn the catapult and destroy the pile of stones, which bars your way.
Now you can follow the path. You will meet some wolves on your way. Your Minions can ride wolves so incorporate them into your army.
You'll get to the next camp of The Empire. Get rid of the enemy soldiers (you won't get to the archers on your own but Minions which ride wolves can do it easily) and free Yeti [5], who is in one of the cages nearby.
Yeti will clear your way to the next stage. Kill all of the enemy soldiers and then follow Yeti. Get to the ice rink [6] with him to finish the first level of the game.
