Okay. What we do, is, going from Level 1 Fun(Just Dig) all the way to Level 30 Mayhem(Rendezvous at the Mountain), we post one good comment and one bad comment about each level.

The first poster(me) posts about the first level, the next poster about the second level, and so on.

Level 1 - Just Dig
Good Point: It makes a good introductory level to the game.
Bad Point: It is impossible to lose, unless you TRY to lose, or don't know how to play.

Conway · « **Reply #1 on:** July 19, 2004, 10:55:31 AM »

Let's also post the screenshot of the level we're commenting on from this site.

Fun 2 - Only Floaters Can Survive This.

Good: This level introduces the player to the use of floaters.
Bad: Why does it give five minutes? You couldn't even make it last one minute if you wanted to!

namida · « **Reply #2 on:** July 19, 2004, 11:10:02 AM »

Fun 3 - Tailor Made For Blockers
Good: This level has quite a few different solutions.
Bad: This is the first level you can get stuck on, resulting in the Nuke or Esc key being required(unless you wait until your time runs out).

tumble_weed · « **Reply #3 on:** July 19, 2004, 04:04:37 PM »

hey, steaver nice idea...;o

anyway

Good: I really like how this one is designed, the thin bars across the poles gives a nice effect, the plat form for the exit stands out as well as mathing the tiles with the exit, also the left and right of the main area give a sense of symmetry to the level...

Bad: If you think about it it seems out of place from the previous level which is definitly harder than this level, since you really don't need to use your brain at all in this level, the unimaginitive title of the level seems to fit the no-brainer aspect of the level

Lemeri · « **Reply #4 on:** July 19, 2004, 04:12:25 PM »

Intersting fact about the level above:
one of the levels of Mayhem (No Added Colors or Lemmings) is actually the same level, but with less skills.

Conway · « **Reply #5 on:** July 19, 2004, 05:09:20 PM »

There are many levels like that in Taxing and Mayhem.

Another good point about 'Now use Miners and Climbers': It is the first level in the game that needs 100%

Fun 5 - You Need Bashers this Time.

Good: You can do a lot of pointless bashing in the diagonal mesh.

Bad: It can be quite boring waiting for all the last lemmings to exit when the route is made.

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #6 on:** July 20, 2004, 05:28:49 AM »

Fun 6: A Task for Blockers and Bombers

Good: This level has a nifty solution in the PC version that allows you to clear it with only one bomber. Also, that "box" where the fire comes out near the entrance is cool.

Bad: Is it possible to only save 20%? I mean, you really can only lose 10 lemmings total and clear the level unless you waste 5 minutes or something. The save percent could be brought up to 80% without any solution changes.

namida · « **Reply #7 on:** July 20, 2004, 06:11:28 AM »

Fun 7 - Builders will help you here
Good: Quite an original design, especially the pit.
Bad: It's quite easy to get stuck if you don't know how to work builders properly.

tumble_weed · « **Reply #8 on:** July 20, 2004, 01:13:07 PM »

Good: Beautiful Scenery
Bad: Stupid level

Timballisto · « **Reply #9 on:** July 21, 2004, 01:56:14 AM »

Wait a sec...this won't be at all fair to the people who aren't past very many levels (I'm at tricky 13)

.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #10 on:** July 21, 2004, 03:12:16 AM »

Fun 9: As long as you try your best

Good: None
Bad: Release rate is 99, which is annoying

DragonsLover · « **Reply #11 on:** July 21, 2004, 03:26:12 AM »

Fun 10 - Smile if you love lemmings
Good: Beautiful scenery for this level too
Bad: A little bit too hard for an easy level (isn't it?)

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 21, 2004, 03:40:55 AM »

Fun 11: Keep your hair on, Mr. Lemming

Good: Teaches you how to maneuver the arrows
Bad: The lemming climbing on the left wall makes it look tedious

DragonsLover · « **Reply #13 on:** July 21, 2004, 04:20:06 AM »

Fun 12 - Patience

Good: Luckely, there's already a stair over the first gap, but it's a small level anyway. Also, it's easy to block the lemmings at the left of the trapdoor.

Bad: Release rate 99 and it's a little bit difficult to give the builder tool to a lemming in the second gap.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #14 on:** July 21, 2004, 04:44:02 AM »

Fun 13: We all fall down

Good: Clicking exercise
Bad: Tedious, and for the CD version of lemmings, you just have to wait...sigh... :-(

DragonsLover · « **Reply #15 on:** July 21, 2004, 05:25:39 AM »

Fun - 14 : Origins and Lemmings
Good: Original level design
Bad: None (Is there really something bad in this level?)

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #16 on:** July 21, 2004, 05:30:40 AM »

Fun 15: Don't let your eyes deceive you

Good: Original level design
Bad: Could get really tedious

DragonsLover · « **Reply #17 on:** July 21, 2004, 05:35:29 AM »

Wow! You're quick!

Fun 16 - Don't do anything too hasty
Good: The word "Heaven" for the exit is original!
Bad: None again (this level is easier than some before this one)

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #18 on:** July 21, 2004, 05:40:38 AM »

Fun 17: Easy if you know how

Good: In the CD version, if you bash the last column with a floater, every lemming with/without a floater will not die!
Bad: Hard, should have been in Tricky

tumble_weed · « **Reply #19 on:** July 21, 2004, 08:19:56 AM »

please don't ruin this game...give some thought to the responses...dont say nothing is bad or nothing is good with the levels...this is actually a good idea...so don't ruin it with bad responses....try to put some thought in when responding...and don't reply unless you have a post about a level

I apoologise for:

Good: Beautiful Scenery
Bad: Stupid level

don't copy me XD anyway that being said

onto the next level

Good: I like this level...I have a picture of me playing this level when I was about 5ish...maybe it was bomboozl...who knows...but the concept is nice also the level also this has blockers which makes this level nicer...

Bad: since the rate is decently high and further down the end sometimes it's hard to select the right lemming to block, you could blow up in the wrong spot, also you need to bomb 5 times which does get a bit dull

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #20 on:** July 21, 2004, 08:26:26 AM »

Fun 19: Take good care of my lemmings

Good: Level Design
Bad: Feels tedious

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #21 on:** July 21, 2004, 03:28:05 PM »

Fun 20: We are Now at LEMCON ONE

Good: Background terrains look really cool. Also, this level has a neat solution which involve going "Over the top" of the level.

Bad: 7 pillars is a bit tedious to bash through. Also, the platform the lemmings land on is a bit small for a fun level; people might bomb the first bridge by accident.

Conway · « **Reply #22 on:** July 21, 2004, 05:06:48 PM »

Fun 21 - You Live and Lem

Good: This is a fairly large level with a lot to do.
Bad: There are parts with nothing to do but wait while the main lemming walks to his next task.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #23 on:** July 23, 2004, 01:17:33 AM »

Fun 22: A Beast of a Level

Good: The scenery, which is very good.
Bad: Not challenging

DragonsLover · « **Reply #24 on:** July 23, 2004, 09:22:07 PM »

Fun 20: We are Now at LEMCON ONE

Just a note with this level: I remembered that there was blue water inside some pipes at the left of the level when I played Lemmings on Atari ST. I remembered that I bashed them and nothing happened!

Anyway...

Fun 23 - I've lost that Lemming feeling

Good: Huge level and EXIT Xs are also nice.
Bad: The right part of the level is completely unuseful and the level is tedious.

Conway · « **Reply #25 on:** July 23, 2004, 09:35:18 PM »

Actually, there is a hidden exit to the right!

Fun 24 - Konbanwa Lemming san

Good: The layout is fairly built up and it allows for various solutions to be used.
Bad: As with many levels, it can be tedious to wait for lemmings to walk places for their next task. This level has a fairly long walkway that a load of lemmings will probably walk across to reach the exit. Maybe the DOS version needs a fast-forward feature. :-/

DragonsLover · « **Reply #26 on:** July 23, 2004, 09:46:16 PM »

Actually, there is a hidden exit to the right!

Really???

Fun 25 - Lemmings lemmings everywhere
Good: The icy spider web is great, the small size of the level and the challenging!
Bad: Release rate 99 + blue grid = Tedious

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #27 on:** July 24, 2004, 03:03:05 AM »

Fun 26: Nightmare on Lem street

Good: Two lemmings only
Bad: Speed is required, and too much building

Conway · « **Reply #28 on:** July 24, 2004, 06:27:44 PM »

Fun 27 - Let's be Careful Out There.

Good: Again, there are a few different solutions to this level, and depending on your level of skill, you can practice finding ways to save as many as possible or do it in a shorter time or with less skills.

Bad: There's that annoying long walkway again!

Anatol · « **Reply #29 on:** July 24, 2004, 07:51:34 PM »

Fun 28-If only they could fly
Good: Neat design. If you look at it, the level is fairly symmetrical! Seriously!
Bad: It gets tedious having to build a huge bridge. Too many
levels are like that.

namida · « **Reply #30 on:** July 24, 2004, 09:51:38 PM »

Fun 29 - Worra Lorra Lemmings
Good: It contains some hidden "traps"(not deadly traps, but terrain traps) that are quite fun to find and get out of.
Bad: Ugh... too long!

Conway · « **Reply #31 on:** July 25, 2004, 01:16:53 PM »

One thing I like to do with 'If Only They Could Fly' is to try to get across the spiky ceiling by building and bashing. That's a lot of fun!

Fun 30 - Lock Up Your Lemmings

Good: It's not as stupid as 'All or Nothing'.
Bad: It's way too short, and not nearly difficult enough to warrant being the last 'fun' level.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #32 on:** July 26, 2004, 01:41:02 AM »

Tricky 1: This should be a doddle!

Good: Level design
Bad: It isn't hard, it's very easy!

tumble_weed · « **Reply #33 on:** July 26, 2004, 06:08:12 AM »

Tricky 2: We All Fall Down

Good: Well one good thing about these levels is that they cause a reoccurring theme throughout the whole game which gaves the game a sense of continuity.

Bad: The bad thing about this level is obvious, this isn't a level which needs to be repeated twice let alone four times, this level gets really old really fast.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #34 on:** July 26, 2004, 11:36:14 PM »

Tricky 3: A ladder would be handy

Good: Level design
Bad: Tedious, takes a bit of a while to find the solution

DragonsLover · « **Reply #35 on:** July 27, 2004, 02:44:45 AM »

Tricky 4 - Here's one I prepared earlier
Good: Level design! (Wow! It's a boat!)
Bad: A little bit tedious...

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #36 on:** July 27, 2004, 04:51:50 AM »

Tricky 5: Careless clicking costs lives

Good: Level design (the best design in my opinion)
Bad: Chaotic

Conway · « **Reply #37 on:** July 27, 2004, 03:16:32 PM »

Good: Level design! (Wow! It's a boat!)

Oh yeah! I never noticed that before.

Tricky 6 - Lemmingology

&#A0;Good: It's not too long and not too short, and there are only five lemmings so you don't have to wait for loads to make their way out while others are on their way home.

&#A0;Bad: There are far more skills than you would ever need to use.

Anatol · « **Reply #38 on:** July 27, 2004, 07:54:11 PM »

Tricky 7-Been there, seen it, done it

good: The water going all the way across the screen is cool.

bad: too easy--more of a Fun type level. Personally, I don't really like the Romish graphics set. There's not enough variety.

Btw, the solution is very similar to that of Fun 30 (Lock up your Lemmings), in the end at least.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #39 on:** July 29, 2004, 12:17:56 AM »

good: The water going all the way across the screen is cool.

Anatol, in the real Lemmings game, there is no water in there. I don't know why the water is in those images. Anyway:

Tricky 8: Lemming sanctuary in sight

Good: Level design (that's all I can say)
Bad: Ugh...tedious

Conway · « **Reply #40 on:** July 29, 2004, 05:23:16 PM »

Tricky 9 - They Just Keep on Coming

Good: There are two different routes, each about as difficult as each other, giving a variety of solutions.

Bad: Too straightforward!

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #41 on:** July 30, 2004, 01:21:01 AM »

Tricky 10: There's a lot of them about

Good: There's a multi-task trick there.
Bad: You should be really careful

Conway · « **Reply #42 on:** August 01, 2004, 01:07:57 PM »

Tricky 11 - Lemmings in the Attic

Good: Not much. The variety of skills means you can't easily go wrong, but that's about it.

Bad: Too much straight building and not much of anything else.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #43 on:** August 01, 2004, 11:18:09 PM »

Tricky 12: Bitter Lemming

Good: I think there are many ways to solve the level
Bad: It could be really annoying to see when the splat-form can catch the lemmings without them splatting.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #44 on:** August 03, 2004, 01:36:57 AM »

Tricky 13 - Lemming Drops

Good: Level Design and (thanks god) a lot of tools
Bad: A little bit hard for a tricky level: A lot of steel blocks here and there. Tedious: Just look at the solution, it is the biggest one of the page!

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #45 on:** August 03, 2004, 02:01:03 AM »

Tricky 14: MENACING !!

Good: Not much, just some terrain traps (not deadly traps)
Bad: Scenery, oh the tediousness!

DragonsLover · « **Reply #46 on:** August 03, 2004, 02:19:20 AM »

Tricky 15 - Ozone friendly Lemmings

Good: Remember this one?

I guess I have nothing to say here. Maybe just that it's the first hard level of the easiest one of the start. Also, this time we can lose!

Bad: If only they could put 4 bombers instead of 5 !!! I was trapped by this, the first time!

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #47 on:** August 03, 2004, 02:25:03 AM »

Tricky 16: Luvly Jubly

Good: Quite challenging.

Bad: The annoying thing is the part where you have to time the bombers. It's reeeaaalllly annnooyyyyiiinngggg!!!! X_X

Conway · « **Reply #48 on:** August 03, 2004, 11:39:09 AM »

Tricky 17 - Diet Lemmingaid

Good: It only gives the absolute minimum of skills possible.

Bad: Too obvious!

DragonsLover · « **Reply #49 on:** August 07, 2004, 04:23:55 AM »

Tricky 18 - It's Lemmingentry Watson

Good: Easy level
Bad: Easy level

Really, I guess I have nothing to say about this level. Someone wants?

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #50 on:** August 09, 2004, 04:52:16 PM »

Tricky 19: Postcard From Lemmingland

Good: There are three ways to solve it (I heard)
Bad: It takes a year to find the solution (just using hyperbole)

@DL: Try thinking again. Think about the level. Think which is good and which is bad.

Here's one for bad:

Bad: Again, why does it give 5 minutes?

namida · « **Reply #51 on:** August 10, 2004, 05:30:37 AM »

Tricky 20 - One Way Digging To Freedom

Good: Quite simple, yet still challenging
Bad: Quite an addictive level O_o

Andi · « **Reply #52 on:** August 10, 2004, 08:10:10 AM »

Haha, the first time I played that level, I put a blocker on a small part of the platform.

Conway · « **Reply #53 on:** August 10, 2004, 05:37:05 PM »

Tricky 21 - All the 6's

Good: Clever design based around the number 6.
Bad: Way too easy even for tricky. It should have been rated 'fun'.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #54 on:** August 10, 2004, 06:32:19 PM »

Tricky 22: Turn around young lemmings!

Good: Challenging
Bad: Too annoying! Really annoying! Annoying, annoying, annoying, annoying! X_X

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #55 on:** August 11, 2004, 02:11:16 AM »

Steaver, Tricky 20 is, in my mind, the easiest level in the Tricky set! If you can beat Fun 11, you can beat Tricky 20.

Tricky 23 -- From the Boundary Line

[insert picture here... seriously, I can't get the source code, so i can't add the picture yet. Basically, it is a copy of Fun 12.]

Good: A neat application of that "reverse miner" trick.

Bad: A bit straightforward, and it is also annoying to hope that you'll still be able to save 60% after that initial bash.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #56 on:** August 11, 2004, 02:50:40 AM »

Insane Steve, to get to the link of the picture, right click on it and then go to Properties. Then you'll see the link. Highlight the link and copy it. Then in your post, click on the "image button" (the one that's a picture) and then paste the link in the middle of the tags. Then you know what to do next. Hope that helps!

Tricky 24: Tightrope City

Good: The way you play the level, original level design
Bad: How is it possible to save 100%?

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #57 on:** August 11, 2004, 03:22:10 AM »

My browser doesn't HAVE a Properties option when clicking on pictures for some reason...

Tricky 25 -- Cascade

Good: Very original solution. Plus, there's a nifty back-route that allows you to save up to 100%.

Bad: The 99 release rate at the beginning can lead to a tricky bit of clicking.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #58 on:** August 11, 2004, 03:56:55 AM »

I see. What's your browser?

Tricky 26: I have a cunning plan

Good: Challenging
Bad: Again, it's annnnoooyyyyiiiinnnggg! Annoying, annoying, annoying, annoying, annoying, annoying, and annoying! Too annoying! Annoying! Annoying (xinfinity)!

X_X

:x

Conway · « **Reply #59 on:** August 11, 2004, 01:43:33 PM »

Ice Eagle, it IS possible in Tightrope City to save 100%, and in less than one minute! Here's how:

Turn up release rate when a few are out. Make the third lemming from the front dig close to the other end where the exit is (you will gather exactly how close later). Make a lemming behind him begin to build about two steps before he enters the step being dug, so his first building step along with the wall being dug should create a wall to block the lemmings turning back. Now have the digger bash at the last possible moment before completely destroying the platform.

Make the second lemming from the front block a few steps past the digger's hole, and turn the builder into a basher or miner so he doesn't build over the blocker. Now the front lemming needs to build so he finishes under the platform containing the exit. When he shrugs, have him build again and he should lay only one step before turning. Finally, make him mine to release the blocker and bash to stop mining, or, if he turns at the blocker, have another lemming mine from the other side and bash. If the crowd is close enough to the end where lem1 builds, they should all make it within a minute.

Anyway, back to the game:

Tricky 27 - The Island of the Wicker People

Good: It's always fun and never boring, and it's not too famous. Also, it has a sort of aventure feel about it.

Bad: Not a lot. Can anyone think of a bad point about this level?

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #60 on:** August 11, 2004, 07:03:31 PM »

@Conway: Thank you!

Tricky 28: Lost Something?

Good: It feels like treasure island; finding the exit is like finding the treasure, and is a cool trick. Nice level!

Bad: It's hard to find the exit, and it could take many attempts to find it!

DragonsLover · « **Reply #61 on:** August 12, 2004, 04:25:20 AM »

Tricky 29 - Rainbow Island

A note on this level. Did you know that there's a game using the same name and that I already played it?

Good: Level Design
Bad: Tedious

Hey! Wait a minute! I guess that these solutions are not from the Dos version. Look on the website, it is possible to get 100 lemmings! O_o

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #62 on:** August 12, 2004, 02:07:32 PM »

Tricky 30: The Crankshaft

Good: Challenging
Bad: Hard level (that's all I can say)

finlay · « **Reply #63 on:** August 12, 2004, 05:05:14 PM »

Taxing 1: If at first you don't succeed
Good: Nice solution, makes you think a bit.
Bad: Tedious to carry out, and is a repetition of the Fun level.

Hey, has anyone else seen the Tricky level 21 of the Mac version, "Going Their Seperate Ways"? That's a pretty good level. I'd provide you with a screenshot, but I don't have one.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #64 on:** August 12, 2004, 06:54:18 PM »

Welcome to the forums, finlay!

I heard you can also download it as a Lemedit level. It's in Lemnet.

Taxing 2: Watch out, there's traps about

Good: It's fun to avoid the traps if you're going to the "traps road"

Bad: Tedious, easy, and sometimes the traps seem "misplaced"

finlay · « **Reply #65 on:** August 12, 2004, 07:10:59 PM »

Taxing 3: Heaven can wait (we hope!!!!)
Good: Nice title. Quite simplistic. Good distribution of skills.
Bad: Too difficult. Took me ages to first complete.

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #66 on:** August 12, 2004, 07:36:43 PM »

Taxing 4 -- Lend a Helping Hand

Good: Original level design. This one makes you think for a while. Also -- the only level with those spike traps.

Bad: The obvious route is annoying to pull off -- The spikes aren't easy to avoid. I prefer an "outside" route, myself...

Conway · « **Reply #67 on:** August 12, 2004, 10:28:29 PM »

Ha ha! In the screenshot of 'Heaven can wait . . .', some of the crowd will fall off the bridge before it reaches the exit! And aren't some of the others walking down the bridge? O_o That screenshot is seriously messed up!

You found a way to post images, Insane Steve!

Taxing 5 - The Prison

Good: Not much. Fairly concise and enough tools. That's about it.

Bad: Too much straight building, and it's quite hard to make sure the lemming bashes the right way when he falls between the bars. This is probably my least favourite taxing level!

LemSteven · « **Reply #68 on:** August 13, 2004, 03:16:34 AM »

Taxing 6 - Compression Method 1

The Good: A unique solution

The Bad: The traps annoy me.

Special Note: &#A0;I have discovered that it is possible to bash through the top few pixels of steel. &#A0;By digging for about 4-5 swipes before bashing through the far right pillar, the lemmings do not fall too far.

finlay · « **Reply #69 on:** August 13, 2004, 10:05:42 AM »

Taxing 7: Every Lemming for himself!!!

Good: well designed.

Bad: Need exact placement of builders to get across to the next island.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #70 on:** August 13, 2004, 03:25:19 PM »

Taxing 8: The Art Gallery

Good: Not much. You learn how to make a holding cell.
Bad: The rest is same! Come on! I mean, can't the solution be different? X_X

Conway · « **Reply #71 on:** August 14, 2004, 03:31:00 PM »

Taxing 9 - Perseverance

Good: Short and simple, and there are a few different solutions.

Bad: The taxing version isn't much harder than the fun.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #72 on:** August 14, 2004, 03:44:40 PM »

Taxing 10: Izzie Wizzie Lemmings Get Busy

Good: Not too long or too short.
Bad: Why did they make this a repeat level? I mean, it's too easy to pull off!

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #73 on:** August 15, 2004, 02:46:56 AM »

Taxing 11 -- The Ascending Pillar Scenario

Good: Well, this one is certainly taxing...

Bad: Trapping and releasing the lemmings is downright annoying. I mean, they ALWAYS seem to build out the wrong way (To the right).

You can download this level on my old website.

Tricky 12 - Livin' On The Edge

Good: Level Design
Bad: Easy level in the Tricky set! Come on! All you learn from this level is to build near some gaps like the title said!

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #75 on:** August 15, 2004, 04:41:48 PM »

@DL: Living on the Edge is in the Taxing set, not Tricky! I know it should have been a fun level.

Taxing 13: Upsidedown World

Good: Level Design (very good indeed)
Bad: Annoying

Conway · « **Reply #76 on:** August 15, 2004, 06:58:48 PM »

Taxing 14 - Hunt the Nessy

Taxing 13: Upsidedown World

Good: Level Design (very good indeed)
Bad: Annoying

I loved this one. The problem is you would get a visual idea for a level, then have to make a level around it. You can see this a lot in Lemmings, 666, Hunt the Nessy, Every Lemming for himself, The Art Gallery, etc.
(Course... these were all done by the same person..

)

Also, the reason the levels were duplicated is they were for the most part too hard. So simpler versions were introduced to ease you in. The ment that many had the same solution. Very few "new" levels were done for fun & tricky...

Taxing 18 - Tribute to M.C. Escher

Good: It's challenging because the only form of penetration you have to use is bombers and one basher.

Mayhem 1: Steel Works

Good: a good idea to have a level of metal.

Here's my theory:

They made a level. Just like any other level.

They notice it involved floaters like that. So they call it that!

And the level was given the name, not the name was given the level.

It's just my theory!

Mayhem 5 - Down, Along, Up. In that Order.

I still can't help but love Mayhem 5!

Mayhem 9 - Curse of the Pharaohs

Good: Fairly difficult and a decently tight time limit. Also another level that's fun to try for 100% if you're feeling up to it. (Yep, I just tried it, and it is definitely possible!)

Bad: Annoyingly high release rate.

namida · « **Reply #109 on:** September 03, 2004, 11:15:24 PM »

Since I made this thread, can I ask just one thing. Can you please save Level 12 of Mayhem( "The Far Side" ) for me? &#A0;

I'm not going to do Level 10 though, since I've just asked for a level to be saved. Lol. But anyway, on the subject of 100%... although I don't remember exactly how, I am almost certian that I have acheived 100% on "From The Boundary Line", which is said to be impossible to achieve 100% on. Also, a lot of levels in L+ and L+2 are fun to try 100% on. If there isn't already one somewhere, I will post a list of which levels you cannot save 100% on.

Conway · « **Reply #110 on:** September 03, 2004, 11:31:16 PM »

100% in 'From the Boundary Line'?! I'd like to see that! I know it's possible to save 100% in the original of that level, and it's possible to save a little more than it asks for in 'Boundary Line', but surely not 100%?! O_o

edit: I've just found out it's possible to save 87% (70 out of 80) using a trick or two.

Vilg oui

Okay. The main reason I wanted to do it is that, in my opinion, it's the most clever design in the original game.

Anyway:

Good: Very original design - going the long way around - and involves some very good tricks too. And it's pretty much the only hard level with the dirt style.

Bad: The time limit is a bit short.

Conway · « **Reply #117 on:** September 08, 2004, 01:35:07 PM »

Please do that level anyway, Steaver. I'm curious why you wanted to!

Why you didn't put another one? Because here's the next:

Mayhem 14 - Pea Soup

Bad: Annoying easy level and why 21 diggers? Why not 15 or 10? No, no: 21!... :

Conway · « **Reply #119 on:** September 08, 2004, 06:12:47 PM »

Mayhem 15 - The Fast Food Kitchen (anther food-related level. I think the programmers were getting hungry at this point!)

Good: A bit harder than the original, and fun to try to save 100%. Also, there is a lot of multitasking.

Bad: Quite annoying it you're aiming for 100% every time and you keep going wrong at the same point.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #120 on:** September 12, 2004, 06:05:16 AM »

Mayhem 16: Just a minute...

Bad: It's too much precision for bashers! And it takes a little while to find the solution!

finlay · « **Reply #121 on:** September 12, 2004, 02:03:03 PM »

Funny, the solution to Just A Minute has always seemed obvious to me; the only difficlty is the time limit.

Mayhem 17: Stepping Stones

Good: Nice idea, quite challenging
Bad: Annoying if you miss the Stones, and because you have to "remove" the blocker by building over him, which is difficult to time accurately.

Conway · « **Reply #122 on:** September 12, 2004, 04:59:17 PM »

Another fun thing about 'Stepping Stones' in the solution of going through the ceiling.

&#A0;

&#A0;Mayhem 18 - And then there were four

&#A0;Good: Probably one of my favourite levels in the game. It's fun to try for 100% and there are a few different ways to do it. There is also a fair margin for error in case you go wrong.

&#A0;Bad: It can be hard to keep track of all the groups if you're multitasking.

Bad: Easy level for a number 22 of Mayhem!

finlay · « **Reply #127 on:** September 16, 2004, 07:26:37 PM »

Mayhem 23: Going Up.........

Good: I like the blue crystals tileset. I like how this uses a trap unused in other levels. I quite like this one in general.

Bad: A misplaced builder near the start can mean the difference between life and death later on after bashing, and it's a bit tedious. Also, you can't blow up your blocker next to the entrance.

Ice_Eagle91 · « **Reply #128 on:** September 17, 2004, 12:25:03 AM »

DragonsLover · « **Reply #136 on:** September 20, 2004, 02:00:14 PM »

And finally:

Mayhem 30 - Rendezvous at the Mountain

Good: We don't need to save all lemmings and there's enough time (9 minutes).

Bad: These levels don't seem to be getting any harder. Maybe they're just to give the beginner a chance to experiment with a lot of tools in different landscapes.

Also, shall we see if we can get through the tame rating without using the word 'easy'? This won't be easy!

Mad_Max · « **Reply #159 on:** October 11, 2004, 12:47:54 AM »

Crazy 4 - Lemming Express

Good: The level is aptly named. The design feels like some sort of subway.
Bad: The solution's not pretty hard to figure out. The only difficult part involves building out of the tunnel without using up all your builders, and even that isn't that hard.

Crazy 5 - 24 Hour Lemathon

Good: &#A0;There is room for error because there are extra builders.
Bad: The leader should do more besides just build bridges

Tame 6 - The Stack

Good: Nice challenge when you see that you have no bashers!
Bad: If only the top of the pillar could be flat!

Crazy 7 - And Now, the End is Near

Good: Fun and unique.

Bad: Perhaps slightly boring.

Crazy 8 - KEEP ON TRUCKING

Good: There's at least 2 different ways to complete the level. Quite fun to complete.

Bad: The level's title is all in caps, which annoys me.

Crazy 9 - On the Antartic Coast

Good: The snow behind the snow-thrower looks like the hand of ET!

Also, the level design is good!
Bad: You have to hurry!

Crazy 10: ROCKY VI

Good: Complicated solution that requires a little bit of thought.

Bad: Don't really like it that much; not very keen on the tileset. Also, its title is also in allcaps, an annoying habit of ONML in general; while Lemmings had only one level in allcaps (POOR WEE CREATURES), ONML seems to have like half its levels in allcaps or randomly mixed caps.

Also, I'll let someone else do the next one, but I think it's probably my favourite, or one of them, in Oh No!

Mad_Max · « **Reply #166 on:** October 15, 2004, 04:49:00 PM »

Crazy 11 - No Problemming!

Good: Can be quite sneaky if you don't pay attention to the level layout or release rate.

Bad: Once you figure it out, this is undoubtly the easiest level in the whole game.

LemSteven · « **Reply #167 on:** October 15, 2004, 08:11:04 PM »

Crazy 12: Lemming Friendly

Good: Fun to try for 100%
Bad: Two reasons:
1. Not a very creative level design
2. Too easy to figure out the solution (This is probably the second easiest level in all of Crazy)

Conway · « **Reply #168 on:** October 17, 2004, 08:06:20 PM »

Crazy 13 - It's a Trade Off

Good: Interesting level design.

Bad: Not such an interesting solution. In fact, it's quite plain and straightforward.

chaos_defrost · « **Reply #169 on:** October 17, 2004, 11:48:25 PM »

Crazy 14: Time waits for no Lemming

Good: Neat trick with the digger.

Bad: Aside from that trick, the level itself is quite straightforward.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #170 on:** October 18, 2004, 03:34:52 PM »

Crazy 15 - Worra load of old blocks!

Good: Very challenging level!
Bad: The traps! And I guess that this level is too hard for the Crazy rate. No?

finlay · « **Reply #171 on:** October 23, 2004, 06:38:06 PM »

Not really, but I think this one can be:

Crazy 16: Across the Gap

Good: I like the central theme of 16 in this level, and the way the skills are distributed, but:

Bad: I think the way the skills are distributed also makes it quite difficult in some ways.

Mad_Max · « **Reply #172 on:** October 24, 2004, 03:32:51 PM »

Crazy 17 - DIGGING FOR VICTORY

Good: Interesting level layout. Feels like an epic level for some reason.

Bad: Time limit is on the short side. Close to no room for error.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #173 on:** October 25, 2004, 12:57:24 AM »

Crazy 18 - NO PROBLEM

Good: Level Design and the level is enough difficult for the rating
Bad: Title in capitals and long boring walk at the right part of the screen

namida · « **Reply #174 on:** October 25, 2004, 10:06:15 AM »

Did anyone else notice that Level 17 and before are 7 levels in a row with the same graphic set?

Mad_Max · « **Reply #175 on:** October 25, 2004, 06:40:23 PM »

I've just noticed it. Pretty interesting fact, even though I have to say that the Bricks tileset is probably the nicest and most diverse tileset of the game and it do allow many level combinations.

Back on topic:

Crazy 19 - DON'T PANIC

Good: Many different ways to solve this puzzle.

Bad: A bit too easy for a Crazy level. Another level title all spelt out with caps.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #176 on:** October 25, 2004, 07:38:30 PM »

Crazy 20 - Ice Ice Lemming

Good: Luckely, only 20 lemmings, we need to save half and the release rate is low!

Bad: The fuc**** steel blocks! This is one of the worst levels of Oh no more for me!

Conway · « **Reply #177 on:** October 25, 2004, 10:35:50 PM »

Me too!

Wild 1 - Pop YoR ToP!!!

Good: Not a bad way to start out a new set.

Bad: Not much, unless you hate using bombers.

Also, I am now thoroughly convinced that the solutions site is based on Lemmings for Windows. The solution shown for this level doesn't work in DOS.

Mad_Max · « **Reply #178 on:** October 26, 2004, 03:17:28 AM »

I actually thought that a good deal of the solutions listed on this site aren't that great. For instance, the listed solutions of Tricky 13 - Lemmings Drops and Mayhem 25 - Have a Nice Day! are totally messed up, showing up that you need to build all the way to the left, setting up blockers like crazy and build over the steel wall on the right. This was how I solved this level's lesser counterpart in Tricky back when I knew very little about Lemmings, but I've finally got a solution that didn't require that much tomfoolery. As for Wild 1 - Pop Yor Top!, you could easily save 100% of the Lemmings without using a bomber at all and simply mine down at the right spots.

And now... level review time!

Wild 2 - Lemming Hotel

Good: Nice looking level layout. Pretty relaxing level and a easily manageable rescue percentage.

Bad: Some of the builders can be tricky to put down without running out of Builders or simply run out of time. The last section of the level can be tricky to wade through.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #179 on:** October 26, 2004, 02:51:31 PM »

Wild 3 - Lemming Rhythms

Good: The title and the level design.
Bad: You have to start carefully the builders at the right spots! And if you miss, you must restart!

LemSteven · « **Reply #180 on:** October 29, 2004, 09:00:39 PM »

Wild 4: Meeting Adjourned

Good: Challenging level that makes you save 100%
Bad: Too much straight building

DragonsLover · « **Reply #181 on:** October 29, 2004, 09:48:37 PM »

Wild 5 - Lemming Head

Good: Luckely, we can have blockers!
Bad: A little bit boring and the title. Can you tell me what "Lemming Head" means for this level? O_o

In America, there's a semi-popular candy called "Lemon Head". They're pretty good.

Wild - Just a Quicky

Good: A pleasant, slightly challenging, sweet little level.

Bad: I kind of wish it was bit harder.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #184 on:** November 01, 2004, 12:39:49 AM »

Wild 7 - You Take the High Road

Good: Very challenging level! This is a kind of level that I like!

Bad: The level is a bit too easy. A little bit harder would be appreciated! Also, you need a good synchronisation.

Mad_Max · « **Reply #185 on:** November 01, 2004, 02:00:27 AM »

Wild 8 - It's a tight fit!

Good: Rather unique. There's not many levels like this one in the game.

Bad: The solution's mostly all about timing. Although it's hard to beat, the solution isn't very complex.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #186 on:** November 01, 2004, 03:27:25 PM »

Wild 9 - Ice Station Lemming

Good: Nice challenge to go up!
Bad: The trapdoor above is completely unuseful. Also, you have to aim carefully and be sure for the builder that he doesn't go back!

Conway · « **Reply #187 on:** November 01, 2004, 11:08:26 PM »

Bad: The trapdoor above is completely unuseful.

Actually, when I play it, I get the lemmings above to dig when there's a bridge below to catch them, then build up through the hole. That solution is much more fun!

Wild 10 - Higgledy Piggledy

Good: This is one of the few levels where more than a few lemmings have to die. Judge for yourself whether this is a good or bad point.

Bad: Silly title!

&#A0;Good: This is one of the few levels where more than a few lemmings have to die. Judge for yourself whether this is a good or bad point.

Actually, it is possible to save 100% by using a dig pit to hold the crowd while the leader does the work.

Wild 11: Mutiny on the Bounty

Good: Level design (Resembles a ship, hence the name of the level)
Bad: Little room for error because builders are in short supply

Mad_Max · « **Reply #189 on:** November 02, 2004, 03:38:14 AM »

Wild 12 - SNOW JOKE

Good: Can be quite challenging due to the time limit. Building through the winding gap in order to reach the exit can be tricky.

Bad: The title's a pretty bad play by words and it's all written in caps to boot. The level's layout a bit too big for it's own good and most of it is unneeded.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #190 on:** November 02, 2004, 06:27:39 PM »

Wild 13 - ONWARD AND UPWARD

Good: Nice level design and very challenging one too.

Bad: Title in capitals and... the time limit. You have to hurry in this level. Also, something bad with the bombers is that you must get it right or you must restart. It's normal that you have to restart for this level! Quite too hard for a Wild level.

In the solution on the website, there's a mistake at the end of the text. It should be "bomber" instead of "blocker".

Mad_Max · « **Reply #191 on:** November 03, 2004, 02:24:05 AM »

Wild 14 - ICE SPY

Good: Nice level layout with a few puzzling elements. Some sneaky traps in there as well.

Bad: Third level in a row which is spelt in caps, and YET another lame play by words about snow.

Proxima · « **Reply #192 on:** November 05, 2004, 09:58:39 PM »

As a newcomer, am I allowed to take part.......?

Wild 15 - THE SILENCE OF THE LEMMINGS

Good: one of the better puns. Multitasking is fun and challenging. The bombing at the end is great fun but not too hard.
Bad: it's a bit long.

Mad_Max · « **Reply #193 on:** November 06, 2004, 03:12:28 AM »

Wild 16 - Take care, Sweetie

Good: A clever one-lemming level whose title isn't spelled in caps! Whoo!

Bad: Too short.

DragonsLover · « **Reply #194 on:** November 06, 2004, 03:14:25 AM »

Damn! At the same time! It's the first time it happens! I let yours, I deleted mine!

Conway · « **Reply #195 on:** November 06, 2004, 01:41:23 PM »

Wild 17 - The Chain with no name

Good: 100% to be saved!

Bad: A little too easy.

Mad_Max · « **Reply #196 on:** November 06, 2004, 02:38:38 PM »

Wild 18 - Dr. Lemminggood

Good: Interesting and nice looking level layout.

Bad: Solution feels way too similiar to Wild 5 - Lemming Head, except for the inclusion of a builder on the top to trap your lemmings.

finlay · « **Reply #197 on:** November 07, 2004, 11:18:09 AM »

Just a little note about Snow Joke: in most versions of this level you can bash through the arrows backwards, surreally enough. No need to bother with climbers and whatnot.

Wild 19: Lemmingdelica
Good: I like those little floating island thingies. The solution's not too outlandish, either.
Bad: This level's one of the ones that I can't remember; it doesn't stand out from the crowd very much. It's also not that easy...

Proxima · « **Reply #198 on:** November 07, 2004, 11:24:08 AM »

Hello finlay... remember me from the ZBB?

Lemmingdelica would be nice and difficult if you actually had to use that clever trick with the blockers in the pictured solution. It's actually pretty straightforward.

Wild 20: Got anything... lemmingy?

Good: the best combination -- simple (few skills) but hard to find the solution.
Bad: annoyingly difficult to place the digger accurately.

finlay · « **Reply #199 on:** November 07, 2004, 11:47:38 AM »

I'd have to be blind not to remember you. Or exceedly amnesiatic. Or just plain stupid....

Wicked 1:
Good: Nice and small; fits on one screen. As the first level of Wicked, it's only fitting that it's quite a bit harder from Wild.
Bad: Getting through that one-way obstacle is incredibly difficult. That mixed-caps thing is a little annoying.
