A walkthrough for Lemmings Revolution is now available. A big "thank you" goes out to Sally Cort for her continued support of the Lemmings community! Sally has also written walkthroughs for Fun, Tricky and Taxing levels of Lemmings 3D. These walkthroughs can be accessed from the menu on the left.

I dusted off some of the e-mail that has been sent over the past few months and have added/changed content on the site. Most of these changes were a result of your feedback, so keep it coming!

• Added walkthroughs for Holiday Lemmings 94. Big thanks go out to Kilian A. Foth for his hard work in writing these!
• Added a link to Pingus, a Lemmings clone game originally developed for the Linux operating system (a Win32 version is available as well.) Check out their home page for more info. Thanks go to Corey for letting me know about this!
• Updated various broken links to the Lemmings demos. I've decided to place all of the demos locally, so you'll always have access to them. It makes for easier maintenence as well.
• Added a fun Lemmings WAV file compiled from SNES Lemmings sound effects. Thanks go out to James Vanderhyde for the submission!
• Added "The Peanut Butter and Lemmings Site" to the links section. Many thanks to Matt Baker for sending in his URL!
• Updated the FAQ section with some Q&A. The full-blown FAQ still isn't completed...sorry!

One of the first reviews of Lemmings Revolution (at least, that I have seen) is now available on c|net's Gamecenter.com. They gave the game a rating of 7 out of 10. I thought the rating was low at first, but I have to say that I agree with it having read the entire review. Check it out for yourself here.

Great news for Lemmings fans everywhere - Take 2 Interactive has released Lemmings Revolution for the PC! You can purchase the game for around $20 US at your local software shop or online at one of the following online stores:

Electronics Boutique
UGO Gamedealer

A Gameboy Color version of Lemmings Revolution is also due to be released this summer. For those of you who have not played the demo yet, it is available for download at Demo-Files.com. Thanks to all the Lemmings fans for letting me know about the release of this game! Now to start solving the puzzles...

Another MIDI has been added to the collection here at the Lemmings Compendium. Adam has created a nice medley of various Lemmings tunes for your listening pleasure. Check it out in the downloads section or grab it right here.

I also added a link to a new Lemmings-like game called Thinker. This game was created by Aidan B. Check it out in the links section if you get a chance.

If you are as disappointed as I am that Lemmings Revolution was cancelled, make your voice heard! I have received an e-mail address from my source at Psygnosis that should work. Send an e-mail to lemmings.marketing@psygnosis.co.uk to voice your opinion.

I'm pleased to announce a new addition to the Lemmings Compendium MIDI collection. Fellow Lemmings fan Xky Rauh has written a wonderful medley of Lemmings tunes. The medley is very well done - make sure you download this one. Check it out in the downloads section or grab it right here.

PC Gamer has published their latest "Top 50 Games of All Time" in the November, 1999 issue. Lemmings came in at #25, beating out games like Doom, Duke Nukem 3D and Diablo! There is also a nice little write-up on Lemmings Revolution on page 48. Psygnosis, are you paying attention?

I have received word from my contact at Psygnosis that development of Lemmings Revolution has been cancelled. It is troubling that Psygnosis is not willing to continue development on one of their best licenses. If you would like to see this game get published, I would strongly recommend contacting Psygnosis to voice your opinion. I hope to have an e-mail address to use for this shortly.

If you have tried to sign or view the guestbook for the past few weeks, you may have received a "404 Not Found" error. I'm not sure what the problem was, but it seems to be working now. I've sent a message to Guestworld for an explanation but have not heard back from them yet.

Also, a number of you have pointed out that some of the links to the demos are broken. I'll go through and clean up the dead links over the weekend.

If you haven't downloaded the Lemmings Revolution demo yet, you have only two more days to do it. Psygnosis will have the demo available until September 15, so go get it while you can. Please note that the demo weighs in at about 7.5MB. See below for the links:

Lemmings Revolution (US Mirror)
Lemmings Revolution (UK Mirror)

Make sure you fill out the survey at http://www.qcweb.research-int.com/psygno/ so that Psygnosis will have valuable feedback to continue development of this game. Personally, I liked the game and hope that they will publish it.

I have received some (hopefully) good news about Lemmings today! I just got an e-mail from our friends at Psygnosis UK regarding an upcoming demo called "Lemmings Revolution." I have no idea what it is, but I am hoping it will be a compilation of sorts. All my contact provided was a press release, given below:

Lemmings Revolution Promises To Have Gamers In A Spin!

An exclusive Lemmings demo and limited edition prizes await gamers at a new website being launched on 31st August by the brand's creators Psygnosis. The playable PC demo will be available to download, giving players a sneak preview of an exciting concept that the UK based developers are rumoured to be considering as a new PC-CD ROM game.

With the title 'Lemmings Revolution', the one level demo is a spin on the highly addictive original that had players glued to their cliff edges when the furry rodents first fell on to our PCs in 1991.

Located at www.psygnosis.co.uk/lemmings the site will offer you the chance to win some fantastic prizes including a Sony Discman and limited edition Lemmings Revolution T-shirts. The team at Psygnosis will also be giving you the rare opportunity to have your say on the concept of Lemmings Revolution and whether you would like to see this early demo developed into a full game.

But you'll have to hurry - while Psygnosis aren't giving any secrets away about the demo other than its arrival on 31st August, they have warned that the site will be live for two weeks only. After that, who knows? If our furry friends have their way we could be in for a full revolution!

For those of you looking for something different to play, Empire Interactive is bringing out a new puzzle game called Sheep which shares some gameplay elements with Lemmings. Check out this article to read more about it. Thanks go to Robert Church for the heads-up!

On a related note, I've been playing quite a bit of Worms:Armageddon (WA) lately. WA is a turn-based strategy/puzzle game that is very addictive and a lot of fun. Gameplay is much different than Lemmings, but it has a similar appeal. Check out the Worms homepage for more information. A demo is also available.

Whew. It's been a while since this page has been updated, mostly due to the lack of pertinent Lemmings news.

I noticed that Lemmings for Windows now can be purchased at CompUSA stores for around $15US. Not sure if it is available elsewhere, but this is a pretty good deal. I also noticed that Lomax in Lemmingland for Sony PSX is available at GameDealer for $15US, in case anyone is looking for this title.

In addition to the Star Vector site mentioned below, another online resource to purchase Lemmings has been discovered. Check out CD Access for Lemmings Paintball, Lemmings Chronicles and Lemmings 3D. Thanks go to Mike for the tip!

If you are looking for a place to purchase new copies of Lemmings Paintball or The Lemmings Chronicles, I have some great news! I happened upon a site called Star Vector that sells out of print software. Just search for "Lemmings" on Star Vector's front page and it will bring up a list of Lemmings games, including these two titles. These appear to be new, shrink-wrapped editions of the games.

I've added two new sections to the page. The website info section has been updated with a brief expanation of this page and its "mission statement." I've also created an e-mail form for questions and feedback. Check it out in the new e-mail section on the menu bar.

Although it has nothing to do with Lemmings, I have placed a link in the menu bar to the "Demand Aran" campaign to bring Metroid to the Nintendo 64. If you are a Metroid fan (or even if you've never heard of Metroid,) please take the time to visit the Demand Aran campaign page. Join the cause if you are interested!

I've also added some graphical enhancements to more of the pages in the site. Expect more enhancements to be added in the coming days.

If you are reading this message, then you are looking at the new site design in its new home. The Lemmings Compendium is now hosted by Interspeed Network. Check out their site if you are interested in having your web page hosted. Although I have most of the page uploaded to the new server, you may notice some broken links on the downloads that are stored locally. Rest assured that the files will be available as soon as possible. I have also added a couple of new sections, including a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section. Although the FAQ is still under construction, I plan to have it available soon (really!) How do you like the new design? Drop me a note and let me know!

Just as a heads-up, the Lemmings Compendium will be switching web providers over the next week or so. You may experience difficulty accessing the site during this time, but I do not expect there to be any major problems. Once I have received the new IP address, you will be automatically forwarded to the new server. I also expect to have the new site design up and running by the time the transfer is complete.

As a prelude to the renovation to this site, I am changing the format of my guestbook. I am using Guestworld as a guestbook provider, rather than the CGI script that I have been using. This change will allow the guestbook pages to load faster, as well as relieve me from having to reformat them from time to time. Feel free to check it out and sign in!

I have been asked by Peter Spada to remove all copies of the Lemmings Clone game from my server. It seems that Psygnosis feels that it infringes upon their intellectual property. Since this site provides only legal software downloads, the game and all level packs will be removed immediately. Please do not ask me to provide you with a copy of the clone as I will be unable to do so.

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. I've been working on the Lemmings FAQ as well as a new look for this site. Sometime in the next couple of weeks I will be taking down the site for a very short time to give the site a facelift. Please don't be alarmed if you visit during this time - the remodeling shouldn't take more than a couple of days. The new look should be easier to navigate. I will also be adding a mirror site for downloads over in Germany for those of you living on the continent (thanks go to Michael Schoen for setting this up.)

In other news, Gamecenter has posted a review of Lemmings for the Playstation. Although the review points out that there is nothing new about the release, it at least gives Playstation owners the opportunity to fulfill their Lemmings needs. Go here to read the review.

For those Quake II players among you, a Lemmings player plug-in model has been released recently. Now you can frag your friends as a loveable Lemming! Go here for more information and download locations.

Gamecenter has confirmed that Lemmings is indeed coming to the Sony Playstation this year. Although it is basically a rehash of the original Lemmings game, the new game release at least proves that the Lemmings franchise is still viable. Check out the preview for more information.

Two more level packs for the Lemmings clone game have just been added. Thanks go to Craig Kelly and Andy Wright for their submissions! Craig even included a special level (#54) to commemorate Mark McGwire's 62nd home run! As always, these can be found in the downloads section.

I have added four new level packs to the downloads page. Thanks go out to the following Lemmings fans for their contributions:

• BlurNM submitted two level packs for "homemade" levels 1-20 and 21-40. BlurNM also helped Peter Spada with some of the original levels in the Lemmings clone.
• Luke Seybold submitted a seventeen-level pack for your enjoyment.
• Elisa Butch submitted a pack containing a new level 31.

I have also added a couple of new Lemmings links to the links section - "Lemnet" and "The Lemmings Page". Please take some time to stop by both of these nice sites.

Peter Spada sent me the final version of the Lemmings clone with all of the levels completed. Visit the download page to get it. I have also posted the first "level pack" for the Lemmings clone game. This was contributed by Karl Meyer and is also available in the downloads section. Thanks Karl!

Robert Church was kind enough to send the following audio files for everyone's enjoyment:

• (2) Lemmings rap MP3 files
• a Lemmings mix in MOD format
• a number of Lemmings mixes in MIDI format
• MIDI files from Lemmings Paintball

Finally, I received word from Rebecca Eash that the Holiday Lemmings games are available directly from Psygnosis. She was able to order both the 1993 and 1994 versions for about $20. Call Psygnosis at (800) 438-7794 to order. Thanks Rebecca!

Next Generation Online is reporting a possible release of Lemmings and Oh No! More Lemmings on the Sony Playstation. This bodes well for a possible re-release on other platforms. Click here for the full story.

Peter Spada sent yet another update to the Lemmings clone game, which fixes more bugs. As always, check it out in the downloads section.

Peter Spada sent me an updated version of the Lemmings clone game, which is now available in the downloads section. This revision should fix the installation and video problems many of you have been having. After clicking on the newlem.exe file, please run the install.bat file to install the game properly. Peter has added some more Mayhem levels to the game as well - bringing the total up to Mayhem 15. If any of you are still having problems with the game, please let Peter know.

I have fixed a number of dead links in the downloads section. All of the links should be operational now.

Per my May 31 news item, I have disabled the petition sign-up as of midnight, Central Standard Time. I will make a final count of the signatures this weekend and then send off the petition to Psygnosis. Once again, many thanks to everyone who added their name to the petition!

I neglected to note that in order to install the Lemmings Clone game, you must specify that the directory structure be extracted from the executable. To do this, you must type "newlem.exe -d" (without quotes) from either a command prompt or from the "Run" command under the Windows 95 Start Menu.

I have just added a beta version of a new Lemmings clone game which was sent to me by Peter Spada. Peter has created new, original Lemmings levels on his own and has even included a level editor so that you can create your own levels. Currently, all 30 levels have been completed for the Fun, Tricky and Taxing levels. There are 8 Mayhem levels complete. As the game is developed, Peter will forward new versions to me to make available on this page for download. Check it out when you get a chance and let Peter know what you think!

I've tallied up the signatures for the petition, finally. As of 10:00 p.m. CST, there are 636 signatures on the petition. I will keep the sign-up page open until midnight CST on Friday, June 5. After that time, no more signatures will be added to the petition. So, if you haven't added your name yet, please do so before this coming Friday. After the final tally, I will send the petition off to Psygnosis. Thanks to everyone who has supported this effort!

I was able to score a copy of Lemmings 2: The Tribes for Super Nintendo at one of the malls in Austin today. I bought it at a store called Gamefellas which sells new and used games for most of the console game systems. The copy I bought was brand new (not used, surprisingly) and only cost me 35 bucks. I'm not sure if Gamefellas is a national chain or not, but they have stores in three of the malls here in Austin. Check 'em out if you live nearby.

I have received a number of e-mails from some of you who are concerned that this site is going away. I am assuming that these concerns stem from my April 2 update (below.) My e-mail problems were only temporary and were due to a mail server glitch. Please be assured that I intend to keep this page active indefinitely and add to it as new Lemmings news items and files are made available. This site is not (and I repeat, NOT) going away!

In other Lemmings news, signatures to the petition keep coming in. Thanks go to everyone who has signed up so far! I am going to try to count them all up and plug them into a spreadsheet this coming weekend, if possible. At this time, I am setting a goal of 500 signatures before I send the petition off to Psygnosis. If we have already met this goal, I may set it a little higher.

Work on the Lemmings FAQ is proceeding, albeit slowly. I have an outline of the FAQ completed and have begun work on the actual content. I hope to dedicate more time to it in the coming weeks and have an alpha version available by the end of May.

My e-mail has been down for the past 48 hours. If you sent me a message over the last couple of days, please resend it as I most likely did not receive it the first time.

Added some really cool Lemmings music to the downloads section. Five of them are from the first Lemmings game and one is from Lemmings 2: The Tribes. I have posted Windows 95 module players that you will need to download if your system cannot play MOD or MED files. As always, if anyone knows of any other music files (in any format) please let me know where to find them. Enjoy!

Some good news for Macintosh users! I was browsing in a local (Austin, TX) store called Cyber Exchange today and came across 3 NEW copies of Lemmings for the Mac. Cyber Exchange is a franchise that buys and resells previously-owned, discontinued and new software for computers and game consoles. The company has local franchises in most major US cities. Check out their web site for more information. By the way, I did not buy any of the three copies (I don't have a Mac) so they are still on the shelf if anyone in the Austin area is interested.

Apparently, Psygnosis has teamed up with the The Great Stuff Network to distribute Psygnosis titles over the internet. The first game that will be made available for download is none other than Lemmings for Windows. This title is available for $4.99. Visit The Great Stuff Network for more information. Incidentally, the description that appears for Lemmings looks vaguely familiar...

I have begun work on a Lemmings FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) which will act as a single-document repository for much of the information contained in the "About" and "Hints" sections. I plan to make a plain-text version and an Adobe Acrobat (PDF) version available for download, as well as have a hypertext version for on-line reading. Please keep in mind that due to work schedules and such, it may take quite some time to compile.

For those of you who are into Quake, a site called Nocturnal Conversions is working on a "Save the Lemmings" conversion. The goal is to get the Lemmings from the beginning of the level to the exit without killing them. As each Lemmings dies, a percentage of the player's health is decreased. Should be interesting once it is completed. Thanks to Blue's News (an awesome resource for Quake and Quake 2) for the information.

At last count, I have already received 34 signatures for the petition. Not bad for a week's time! Keep 'em coming!

The About Lemmings section has been updated.

In addition, I have added an additional code to the Lemmings 3D code page (special thanks to Matt Dravich for the contribution) and have made some minor aesthetic modifications throughout the site.
