Lemmings Update Brings Trophies and Rumble

Hi, Robert Karp here, you might remember from a Hustle Kings post I did a few months ago, but today I’m here to write about Lemmings.

Those loveable little Lemmings are back once again giving you another chance to play one of the greatest puzzlers of all time, exclusively on PS3. This classic has been remade in High Definition and now includes both trophies and rumble support!

Only the most skilled players will be able to achieve all the trophies, and for those of you that are struggling to get the most coveted golden Lemming Leader, here are a few tips to make sure you save the maximum number of those gorgeous green haired critters. Four levels in particular need quick wits to save as many Lemmings as possible and here are my top tips for those levels:

Fun – Down and down we go! : Start off by giving all your Lemmings umbrellas and sit back and watch as they fall to the penultimate ledge. It should be plain sailing from there!
Fun – Total Eclipse of the Lem : Make the first Lemming a climber and the split second he illuminates the first lamp set him off as a digger. Then quickly set the second Lemming to a blocker before he walks off the left edge into a fatal peril! Whilst the first Lemming is digging give him an umbrella, then once he lands, set him off digging again until he gets almost all the way through the brick, at which point make him a builder. You’ll still have a bit left to do from there. Are you up to the challenge?
Taxing – Bomb not bash : The crucial part of the this level is setting off the first Lemming as a digger at the very first opportunity and making sure he’s a digger as soon as he lands after the long fall.
Mayhem – Burning Bridges : 99 Lemmings is what you need here. Just use one of the blockers and be sure to take the most efficient route. One extra tip, use the digger very wisely. Best make sure the whole of the spade doesn’t go into the concrete!

As well as classic puzzles, this HD re-imagining of Lemmings introduces some new challenges to stretch the sharpest of minds – do you think you can cope with teleporters, cloning machines or playing in the dark ?
