Update: March 9, 2006
«©NCSX» According to Pembroke scholars scullery maids, lemmings are legendary followers. Looking straight ahead and never to the side nor the rear, the rodents march in straight lines akin to an unthinking serpentine horde. Legend has it that lemmings are so straightforward that they'd all march into the sea if given the chance. Fifteen years after NCS booted the original Lemmings game on an Amiga 2000 computer with a massive 80 meg hard drive, Lemmings do their thing once again on the crisp and cozy confines of the PSP. The little green-haired rodents march in unrelenting zombie-like fashion and one must guide them in a godlike manner to salvation. By using a cross-hair cursor, select special functions for your lemmings so they can blow up obstacles, dig tunnels, climb, build platforms, and even float like an angel from great heights. For example, one level may require that a big rocky obstacle be blown up by a sacrificial lemming to allow passage for its kinsmen. Next, one or more lemmings may be charged with the construction of a bridge so that fellow rodents may walk their way across a deep and deadly chasm to eventual escape. The PSP version features a total of 156 stages of which 36 are new and exclusive to Sony's handheld. Lemmings also includes a medley of new background music and four difficulty levels. To further enhance the longevity of the game, SCE includes a level editor so that creative types can spend hours designing devious stages to share with fellow Lemmings lovers.
