At the time of release a truly innovative game, that unfortunately doesn’t live up to the Lemmings Name

User Rating: 4.4 | 3D Lemmings PC
Most of us have had lemming’s experience at some to or another, either it be on the PC at first release or playing Lemmings: the tribes on the Amiga or Atari ST, or even more recently playing it on your Java enabled phone.

If your one of the above; then your probably interested in the Lemmings first move to the 3D world. The premise is indeed interesting, taking the same idea's that haven’t changed much from the initial concept and trying to update them.

The level design is excellent, and even though the graphics are poor and non accelerated, the are fine for the task of getting the (not so little, this time round) lemmings home.

The problems arise, when trying to control the little guys. The control is fiddly and despite the amount of time you spend with it, it never seems to do or be able to do what you are trying to achieve. The thing with 3d games of this era is that the camera control was never very good and it plagued many good games making them awful, this is no different. With many of the more intricate levels being made extremely difficult by the inability to see what you’re doing.

If your a collector, then this is probably one for your collection. If you’re looking for a puzzle game them this is done much, much better elsewhere.
