Review

This game is a good mix of strategy and timing. I like a good puzzle game. They tend to age well and this is no exception. The puzzles challenge the mind well as you try to meet the constraints of time and lemmings saved. The music is awesome and catchy. The traps and level designs were good and welcoming. Controls were mostly good. A lot of times you need to assign a role to a lemming in pile of other lemmings but are unable to ensure you get the one that you want. This creates an element of chance that I found annoying. There was one point where I got hung up because I didn't realize the technique that you needed to use existed. It would have been nice to have been introduced to it in some way in advance. Overall this game is an excellent play.
