Hello
I've made a version of Lemmings playable on the old Apple II/II+/IIe systems.  It's only 10 levels and limited to single-screen gameplay but it's more or less functional otherwise:

If you want to try it out and don't have an Apple II to run on you can play in-browser at the internet archive:

This is extremely cool! It actually looks above average for Apple2 era games.

Great port, it captures the original fun of the game, despite the limitations. Hey, have you considered making an original level for this port? :thumbsup:

Nicely done, some very cute retro vibes here :lemcat:

Does the port accept mouse input? I was playing the browser version and could only control the cursor with the arrow keys.

No, this port doesn't have mouse support.  Later models of the Apple II could support a mouse, but I don't have one to test with. 

Adding mouse support also would complicate the music playing code, as often the Mockingboard (sound card) and mouse card are expected to be in the same expansion slot (#4).

In theory you can press J to enable joystick mode and use a joystick for the pointer, however that's not well tested and also I'm not sure if it would work at all with the in-browser emulator
