Lemmings are little rodents known for their collective consciousness.
They travel in dense groups and seem to move as a mass rather than as
individuals. They're infamous for following each other off cliffs or
into the sea to their death. In the video world, Lemmings have much the
same personality. They aren't predispositioned to do anything but
follow. They will do whatever they're told, and follow that until you
tell them to do something else. Since you're in charge of where the
lemmings go and what they do, it's up to you to save the lemmings from
falling to their death.
As "hoards of roaming rodents" are released from a chute at the top of
the screen, you use the mouse to tag them for a certain job as they
scurry around the screen. You can make them walkers, climbers, diggers,
or builders. You can even have one lemming stop the lemmings behind him
from continuing in that direction. The way you control each lemming
determines if the other lemmings will continue to move toward safety.
LEMMINGS: 1991 XMAS EDITION has been released for all the world to try.
It's a full working version of a Lemmings-style commercial game. There
are a couple of modes borrowed from other popular versions of the
Lemmings games available at software retailers, but this one is unique
with its refreshing winter wonderland setting and pretty lights with all
the lemmings in Santa hats.
