Adorable green-haired idiots are marching to their doom. Guess who gets to save them?
Words: Mikel Reparaz, GamesRadar US
In case you’ve never actually played Lemmings, though, here’s what to expect: up to 100 Lemmings will spill into each level through a trapdoor, and you need to click on them and assign them jobs to guide them to the exit. Depending on what you tell them to do, your Lemmings can climb, float, dig straight down and bash through walls. They can create diagonal tunnels, build stairways, block other Lemmings from walking into danger and even blow themselves up, if you need a big hole somewhere.
The problem, of course, is that you’ve got a limited number of these assignments in each level. One stage might give you near-unlimited resources to work with, while another might force you to make do with one stair-builder and two suicide bombers. It gets unbelievably frustrating, but trying to plan against the clock and figure out exactly what you’re supposed to do in each level is maddeningly addictive.
