Lemmings are very cute but also very zany!They will mindlessly walk off cliffs, fall into deep waters, and stumble into deadly traps unless you can help them to get their act together.

You can do this by endowing the rascals with valuable skills and powers. Lightning decisions and razor sharp reactions complete your arsenal... but don't forget, a
blocker, a rogue miner or even a misplaced builder could mean the bitter end for every Lemming on screen!

Lemmings

Leap into action

on C64

Life before Lemmings? It seems hard to believe now, but in the dark days before the Spring of '91, those lovable losers with the lime-green hair were no more than a twinkle in the eyes of DMA Design.

Since their launch by Psygnosis on Valentines Day, February 14th 1991, they've conducted a Lemming love affair with computer gamers worldwide, who've rescued Lemmings from certain doom (and squished a few in the process) on multiple formats, making Lemmings the biggest selling computer game series of all time!

Now all your suicidal chums are celebrating their third birthday, after three chaos filled years, with their long awaited arrival on C64!

A remarkable conversion of the original, ultra-addictive Lemmings format brings C64 owners all the thrill filled fun of puzzle-powered Lemmings action.

Thousands of Lemmings are on the loose, marching towards extinction unless you can save them. Without minds of their own, they are completely helpless, faithfully following their leader through 100 levels of blazing fires, endless canyons, deadly tunnels and ancient ruins. One thing's for sure their future lies in your hands, because beyond every obstacle awaits certain disaster. Lose one Lemming and you risk losing them all! You or you and a friend can command the Lemmings to dig, climb, tunnel, float and build their way to safety. But you have to be fast, because with each moment you hesitate, more Lemmings may drop from above! So you better be god. The farther you get, the faster the Lemmings hurtle towards their demise. One wrong move by you could wipe out an entire species! 1 or 2 players
