Rating: Summary: Fun, sometimes sadistic, but fun Review: If you want to be in charge of a bunch of moronic, cute, green balls of fur as they explode, fall of cliffs, drown, and get cut to bits by traps, you might enjoy this game. Of course, the goal is for them not to get killed, but to get to a hot air balloon hidden beyond all the tricks and traps, which will take them to safety. Although it starts out simply, the puzzles quickly get intense, luckily however, for each level you complete, you will unlock 2 harder levels (there is a "map", so sometimes completing a level will unlock only one, or no levels, but usually you will get two). I don't know if it is just my disc, but I cannot play one level (the high dive), because I am missing a texture or something. If anyone has any information about that, I would like to know it. Anyway, this game is extremely chalenging, even having played the original, and is also entertaining, often in a sadistic way (the spike logs often get a little... choppy), so if you like puzzle games, I recomend you give this one a try, since it doesn't cost too much for 100 levels.
Rating: Summary: Lemmings Revolution Review: Lemmings Revolution is the best Lemmings game out there. The old lemmings just dont cut it compared to this one. With all new puzzles this game never gets boring.
Rating: Summary: Lemmings is back, again... Review: Not the first Lemmings game I've played, but it came bundled with my PC and gave it a spin. It installs in seconds on a Pentium II, even, and then went off straight away. When you enter the game, it gives you the storyline as part of the opening sequence. With that over, click 'new game' and you get this sideways pyramid of cubes. Most are yellow, but 3 are green. Click a green block to play that level. Then, wait a sec, and after a few moments a cylindrical tower will appear, all in lovely 3d. When you've conquered that level, 2 more will bcome green. And so on, and so forth. This game is good if you love lemmings, but it's also fun to see them 'plummeting' to their certain doom. And it's nice to see, a few times, their little faces exploding witha teeny pop. Overally good, too, even if it does take you a long time to find out how to rotate the screen view.
Rating: Summary: Best PC puzzler ever Review: The Lemmings are back and they've brought with them more of the addictive, puzzle-solving gameplay that has made the series famous in Lemmings Revolution, which returns to the classic 2D side-scrolling action of the series in a fancy new 3D world. For those unfamiliar with the game, the object is simply to get a set number of Lemmings from point A to point B in side-scrolling fashion. Of course, many obstacles stand in the way, and because the Lemmings are not very bright, they will continue to walk in a straight line even if it means their demise. In order to guide the Lemmings to safety, you assign them specific tasks to overcome the various obstacles-make a Lemming a Basher, for example, and he will bash through walls, while a Builder can build stairs to reach higher levels. What it all comes down to is a game that is simple to play, but which has a complexity that will have puzzle fanatics glued to their screens and impatient gamers ready to toss their monitors out the window. Some of the later puzzles in particular can take hours to complete, and the trial-and-error gameplay will cause some folks to simply give up in frustration. Fortunately, the non-linear level selection allows you to go back to easier levels when the difficulty gets too high. The point-and-click interface is easy to use and a zoom function lets you get right up close to the action for precision aiming. The game can be paused at any time, which comes in handy when several dozen Lemmings are wandering around the level. The goofy music and helium voices of the Lemmings fit perfectly with the gameplay, and the Lemmings make a lovely splat when they fall to their doom. The 3D graphics, though not spectacular, are pleasing to look at and are a nice update to the classic Lemmings style. With over 100 levels, Lemmings Revolution has enough gameplay to have puzzle fans scratching their heads for hours. Anyone looking for an addictive game should give Lemmings Revolution a spin.
Rating: Summary: GOTTA LOVE THOSE LEMMINGS! Review: This game doesn't do too much to the Original Lemmings so maybe 'Revolution' was not an appropiate name for it. It does look and feel fantastic to play on the turning wheel mechanism with a very easy earling curve and interface. But beware - It DOES get tough and you will do well to complete all 200 levels (yes 200!) Reviews of this game were not to hot but this is one of the most addicitve games I've played in ages. Even my girlfriend (who is not a big games fan) is hooked and wont stop till the level is completed!! Theres not much to this game but the levels are well designed and its great for all Lemmings fans. The game hasn't evolved too much with 3d advances, new ideas and originlity. Many people may decide that this is just a cash in but I got mine for £19.99 so it wasn;t at full price. Its definitely more of the same with great graphics and gameplay. Pure addiction! Goodbye social life!

Rating: Summary: Classic wich'll never die Review: You can't imagine how long I waited for a sequel to lemmings; the classic wich'll never die. Years. And finally I found out there's Lemmings Revolution. I bought it immediately. And loved it. This game is absolutely great; almost as great as the original's, but pretty close it gets. And that's quite much, considering the "hype". It has the same skills as the original, but with few new twists--- I won't spoil them to you :) This game is a puzzle; and a hard one. Me, as a veteran of Lemmings -games, finished this but it took a fine two weeks. And many many hours. For beginners this is gonna be tough one. If you have never heard of lemmings let me brief you. In lemmings you control a group of helpless cuties; Lemmings ( of course :) trying to lead them to the exit from the start. It sounds simple, but it isn't... You're gonna agree :) Buy this, because Lemmings never die... A classic, worth five stars. Buy this and the originals as well ( I saw a window 95 -versions package of them )
