Lemmings Main / So... I got around to playing 'Lemmings 2: The Tribes' via DOS.
« on: June 11, 2019, 09:13:14 AM »
I had the game finished a few days ago and just been curious... is it even possible to save all the Lemmings in "Classic 05: The Magnificent Severn" & "Polar 08: Snowed In !"...? These are the only two levels where I couldn't figure out how to save them all.
This is what I have so far.
60 - Beach
60 - Outdoor
60 - Egyptian
60 - Medieval
59 - Classic *1 lost in The Magnificent Severn*
60 - Circus
60 - Highland
59 - Polar *1 lost in Snowed In !*
60 - Space
60 - Cavelem
60 - Shadow
60* - Sports
*Note*
"Sports 01: Ceci n'est pas une pipe" uses a glitch which allows you to save all 60 Lemmings, otherwise the most that I could save without the glitch is 58. I dunno if the glitch is exclusive in the DOS version.

I think the hardest level for me when trying to save them all has to be 'Classic 08: The Secret Of LEMH' due to all the timing with those Diggers & such. "Highland 10: EAT MY SHRAPNEL !!" is perhaps second hardest but you can sorta make it easier with the timing with a Slider on the wall and then using the Mortar as that Slider falls down, after that you'll get the timing down.
Hardest level by regular means... has to be "Sports 10: Take up Archery". Missing even one Archer for creating the arrow bridges, arrow walls or taking too long and it's a reset. Could have two spare Archers if I aimed them correctly but still rather tricky. Despite that level giving me some trouble... I did encounter a number of shortcuts especially in "Sports 05: Blow Back...." & "Sports 07: The Sun Sign Selection" for that tribe. A couple Space Tribe levels where tricky to deal with as well.
***EDIT***
Bit of an edit here but saved all the Lemmings in Classic 05 & Polar 08. Figure I put these here so it's a bit easier to find.
