  • Summary: [Downloadable Game] The Lemmings are on the loose with 40 new high-def levels. The processing power of the PS3 takes the classic game to a new dimension, from detailed environments to richer animation. Danger is only a step away for the little green-haired beings, so it's up to you to guide them through all-new puzzling levels of digging, climbing, bashing and building. With new features like teleporters and cloning machines for fiendish puzzle possibilities, collectible abilities adding a whole new layer of depth, dynamically-lit levels for heightened tension, and find-your-way-in-the-dark play, there's more challenge than ever before. Only you can save the Lemmings, so what are you waiting for? Global Online Rankings enable gamers to check their rank versus the world. [SCEA] Expand

    A careful and luscious conversion from the PSP, Lemmings does little to warrant derision. [Issue #151, p.67]
  2. The concept of guiding your suicidal buddies through obstacle-laden levels has aged a bit, but it's still compelling, especially when you have to multi-task like mad. [Apr 2007, p.61]
  3. It's just a little annoying to know that SCEE and Team 17 are holding back on us, that this game could have been so much more.
  4. It's very old-fashioned, very familiar and very frustrating - much like it ever was, then - but at least you can still enjoy blowing up all the lemmings for fun. [May 2007, p.76]

    Lemmings has been fully restored to modern times. One more time boys. It's worth it. It also challenges older audience to think about how to guide all those awfully cute lemmings back to home. For younger people it might be bit hard to play but small changes in game mechanics make it easier to solve some really nasty challenges. Expand
  2. Dull, not like PC version, bit annoyed I bought it.
