Not only do they have to leave their lovely little hovels for good,but they also have to escape their island before they perish in the Darkness that's coming. Your objective therefore is to save as many Lemmings as possible from each tribe and help them escape the Island. The DOS version has a different sounding soundtrack due to the different sound card, but is otherwise identical.

This version was released as a 5.25" floppy disk, 3.5" floppy disc, and as a CD-rom
Lemmings is a puzzle-platform game developed by DMA Design and published by Psygnosis in 1991. Players guide a group of lemmings through hazardous levels to a designated exit. The gameplay involves assigning specific skills, such as digging or building, to overcome obstacles and avoid traps. Each level has a time limit and requires saving a minimum number of lemmings to progress. The game was released on multiple platforms and is regarded as a classic of the puzzle genre.

This port contains two complete games from the classic puzzle series. There are 209 levels to work through, all featuring the classic Lemmings formula: the player must assign roles (digger, climber, etc.) to marching Lemmings in order to prevent them from meeting terrible fates.
The DOS port of this game is mostly the same graphically compared to the original Amiga release, though there are some slight color changes (most notably in the UI which has changed from organe to yellow). The original AdLib (and by extension, Tandy 3-Voice) tracks are generally longer than the Amiga arrangement, and they play in a slightly different order. The track "The smiling blues" plays before "Much joviality" and "Not at all serious". This game was released as a stand-alone expansion or an add-on, and could picked up either as a 3.5" or 5.25" floppy disk.
This port of Oh No! More Lemmings sees the resolution noticeably increase compared to the original, which can be very obvious when viewing the lemming sprites. The soundtrack also gets clearer and in better quality overall.
Lemmings Return is a follow-up to the rather short J2ME version of Lemmings. Despite the game having a unique title, it has very few truly unique levels of its own. It was released for J2ME-enabled mobile phones in 2006. Gameplay is almost unchanged from the J2ME version of Lemmings, with a few minor improvements. There are 30 levels total compared to J2ME Lemmings's 28, split into the same three ranks as J2ME Lemmings (Fun, Tricky, Taxing) with 10 levels in each. In both games, the Taxing rank is locked until the player completes Tricky. While the game has a couple unique, albeit forgettable, levels, the vast majority of its levels are either taken directly from the later ranks of Lemmings (the J2ME version only had levels from the original Fun rank) or taken from Oh No! More Lemmings but reskinned with original Lemmings tilesets, much like the Mega Drive version of the original game, with most of them here taken from the Tame rank.
This port of Lemmings required the game to be pretty significantly downgraded from its original release on the Amiga due to the 8 bit archeticture of the C64. The graphics and SFX are downgraded, the intro is downgraded, and the reduced width of the screen means that scrolling left and right is much more common.
This port of Lemmings 2: The Tribes features very similar graphics to the original release, and otherwise plays just about the same. The only differences come via some slight performance downgrades and the soundtrack composed by Mike Clarke which is just a rescored version of the original works made for the SNES soundchip. It also has an easter egg where, if you plug the Super Scope into port two, you can use it to blast the Lemmings.
Lemmings on Java Mobile (J2ME) is pretty much just a port of the original Lemmings that uses updated graphics and an upgraded soundtrack to play more comfortabely on a mobile device. Due to phone sizes the game is much more zoomed in than other releases, but otherwise plays about the same.
This port of Lemmings saw a pretty heavy graphics downgrade, with the resolution and screen size being reduced considerably. Perhaps most significant is the need to pause the game while choosing different Lemmings, which drastically affects the gameplay in a way that many believe is for the worse. The intro movie also sees a downgrade in resolution quality and the music/sfx are downgraded to 8-bit chiptune sounds.
This Atari ST port is graphically very similar to the Amiga release, but has far downgraded music, sound (speech is absent), and worse color.
This port of Lemmings 2 sees the graphics stay mostly the same, with only some slight downgrades in quality and performance due to the less powerful hardware. Matt Furniss composed the new music which is just the original music rescored for the Genesis, and sounds substantially different due to the different soundcards and lesser sampling support.
This version of Lemmings saw a reduction from 16-bit to 8-bit, reducing the graphics and sound quality by a considerable amount. SFX are also completely absent, and the intro cutscene has been cut.
This port of Lemmings is almost completely identical to the original Amiga release. The only difference is the rerecorded soundtrack and SFX for use on the Sharp's different soundcard. Unlike other Japanese releases, the soundtrack is the same score from the original Amiga release.
This unreleased prototype was a planned arcade machine that reached a playable build, but never released to the public. The good hardware allowed the game to run a little faster. The intro was also a little redone, and a tutorial slideshow was introduced to quickly show people the basics at an arcade. It was planned to release in 1991.
This Windows port contains two complete games from DMA Design's classic 'Lemmings' puzzle series, which are all mind-boggling games of multiple skill levels, featuring fantastically animated graphics and simple yet addictive gameplay. These Lemmings are the wackiest collection of misdirected rodents ever seen on your screen! They simply walk blindly through the world in the hope of safely reaching their home at the end of each level - unfortunately these levels include steep drops, gaps in the ground, barriers, rivers, and many other hazards. Your task is to rescue the Lemmings across 114 levels of fast-paced puzzling. You are not in direct control of any individual Lemming, but of a cross-hair, which can be moved over any of the Lemmings. Along the bottom are a selection of roles which can be assigned to an individual Lemming, including climbing, floating and bashing. You must click to select the appropriate function, then click on the Lemming to activate it. Each level has a different range of skills on offer, a different amount of Lemmings, and a different percentage target of Lemmings to be rescued in order to progress. 'Oh No! More Lemmings' is the follow-up to Lemmings. The game features 100 new levels, and all-new graphics and music. This port features a slightly increased quality in graphics. The UI is also larger and features more detailed information. The music is also replaced with original scores of royalty-free music in much higher quality. The intro is absent.
