Yep! I passed all levels.

Me too! In the Windows version, anyway.

I have passed all levels in the Windows version.

As for the eleven levels that aren't in the Windows version... I beat them in the DOS version! ^_^

I also beat all the levels that are unique to the Sega Master System version(the only ones that are hard are Menace, and the repeat version of Sega Four, which strangely, is still called Sega Four, just like the first version).

And I passed all the original Sega Megadrive levels. ('Fall and No Life' took me months to figure out!)

Neither, I am ashamed to say :-[

ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    :'( :-[

I did pass all of Holiday Lemmings '93, though! (Except then I had to use the Lemmings Solution for the last level :'( :x)

I passed all level in DOS Lemmings ans Oh No! More Lemmings. I have not played the Megadrive version... Although Fall and no life took me a lot less time to figure out than it took Conway... [Although, it STILL took about 4 or 5 days. I mean, that level is VERY cleverly degisned. If you want to play it, there are remakes on Gareth's LemEdit packs, or my "Insane Steve's World!" level set.]

I have passed all the levels at one time or another, afaik. Some (like Triple Trouble and Save Me) I am almost never able to complete, and it is truly a cause for celebration when I do.
Others (like Rendezvous at the Mountain) I've not had much of a chance to try properly, and have completed on the mac version. On the playstation version I got this far and then couldn't pass it for some reason.
At least one level on ONML has a bug in the mac version whereby a wall that's apparently flat and climbable on the DOS version is bumpy and unclimbable. I did eventually get past it, though, when I used builders instead, but this was very difficult to pull off.
Also in ONML I had problems with Havoc 4, where I was having great difficulty timing the mining to the left, at least certainly on the playstation (I did eventually get it, but I have no idea how). On the mac it was easier because you can hold alt to not select the active basher.

To be sure that I completed all of the levels, I decided to restart playing Lemmings under Dosbox. In 3 days, I'm already in the Mayhem difficulty.

For Oh no more Lemmings, that's another thing: Is someone can send me his executable file of Oh no more Lemmings? Because mine, when I try to enter the game under Dosbox, it shows to "Insert the disk in the drive" and the game crash.

Only the original. I still don't have Oh No! More Lemmings! -- so of course I haven't finished that. Although I think I do actually have the Windows version around here somewhere. So I could probably use that.

Neither.

Here are those I completed:

• Lemmings
• Oh no more Lemmings
• Save The Lemmings (an Oh no more Lemmings demo)
• Lemmings Companion (another demo of Oh no more)
• Xmas Lemmings 91
• Xmas Lemmings 92
• Holiday Lemmings 93

There's only Holiday Lemmings 94, but I don't know where I can find it. Is someone here please can send me the full game or tell me where can I find it?

I did managed to beat both games in the Windows version. It's definitely not as hard as in the DOS version thanks to the instant replay and the "skill assignment in a certain direction" feature, but I guess it's still good anyway. :)

Hi Mad_Max. Welcome to the board. :D

Welcome Mad_Max! Enjoy the forum! :D

I repeat my question:
Is someone here have Holiday Lemmings 94? I was unable to find this game and I want it!

I have beaten all of the original Lemmings levels (With 100% wherever it is possible) and almost all of ONML.

Even Cascade and Tightrope City?

Wow... I know they're not non-100%able, but I have been unable to pull off the 100% Cascade solution, and I haven't even been able to find the 100% Tightrope City solution.

Oh and, the list of 20 levels that you can't 100%... at least one is wrong. "Compression Method 1" can be 100%ed through a glitch. And if I remember correctly, I've 100%ed From The Boundary Line before, though it might have been on the Sega version only(where one builder will clear the final bit, and the level has Release Rate 50).

I got 100% on Tightrope City and Cascade, but they were both very difficult.  In Tightrope City, I placed two blockers (One directly under the entrance) to hold off the crowd for about 20 seconds, then I released them with diggers and bashers.  In Cascade, I used a digger on the stairs and I built a bridge on the left side to keep the crowd safe while a scout built a bridge for everyone to land on.  Both of them require perfect or nearly perfect timing.

I just found the 100% solution to Compression Method 1 earlier this year.

I have the PC-DOS version of Lemmings, so I don't think the 100% solution for From the Boundary Line works.  My best score in that level is 70/80 (87%).

EDIT:  I recently tweaked with my solution to From the Boundary Line, and managed to save 73/80 (91%).

Yep. And even legal. ;P

Really? :) Can you send it to me please? :D

I think he was making a joke. And talking about the demo.

Or maybe he has the actual disks or something.

I don't know! I'm just a stupid random!:P

A little bit unsharp, but I hope enough to prove it.

There you go.

Huh... I see! :-(

It has taken me years to get this far in the game and i'm still not even halfway through the game. sometimes i try the last level. I always get all my lemmings killed one way or another. X_X

Rendezvous At The Mountain is actually a pretty easy level. I consider "Save Me" to be the ultimate level of Lemmings.

Except of course in the Mac version, as I never tire of pointing out. The Mac version of "The Steel Mines of Kessel" is vastly harder than any other level on either game.

Why is it more difficult on MAC?

See my topic "It took 12 years, but I did it"...........

I completed all levels in Lemmings 1 but Mayhem 27th "Mind the step". Bashing under the stairwall makes the lemming to fall....

any hint?

:P

Please elaborate. Which 'stairwall' are you referring to?

It's Mayhem 28, and I'm guessing you mean the staircase right at the beginning of the level?

If so, there are some very small platforms underneath the staircase that you can land on safely -- you just need to get your basher placement very careful.

I find it easier to dig down to the platform instead of bashing.  That way, it is easier to place it correctly.

Of course I did not mean the beginning, I see the platforms as well! (remember I did ALL levels but this one).
I meant the stair lemming has to build almost at the end of the level, after bashing & building throught the columns. He will hit the ceiling before the stair touches the wall.

Oh, that!

When he turns, turn him back with another bridge and build a step at a time until you reach the wall. Make each bridge as close to the end of the last one as possible so you don't run out of builders.

yes but it's tremendously difficult

Why else do you think it's Mayhem 28? It isn't that bad, though, just keep trying and you'll eventually get it.

I know it's just so damn annoying... the problem is at the END of the level, so it really pisses me off.
Other levels are much more difficult and/or hard to understand but definitely worth.

Congratulations!!!

Yeah, I was like that when I finally passed 'Fall and no Life' on the Sega Megadrive. It took me about six months! O_o

Six months, that all? The Mac version of Steel Mines of Kessel took me ten years............

If you consider I started play Lemmings in 1995, did all levels but this one in some months, and finally ended today, it took me about 10 years! :D

This is a momentous day in hisotry! X_X

he he he it is! :D

and I can vote between those who passed "only original" levels :D

I was stuck on Taxing 13 for some 2 years... but still... that's persistance.

Nice work.  :D

Well, of course I didnt play lemmings *continuosly* for 10 years!

I played in 95 for maybe 6 months or more, then I stopped till I discovered DosBox, just a couple of months ago.

It seems the "touch" is still that one of a Lemmings Master :p

The only levels that had me stuck for any major period of time the first time through were:

PC:
Taxing 3 - Heaven Can Wait We Hope
Taxing 11 - The Ascending Pillar Scenario
Mayhem 23 - Going Up
Mayhem 29 - Save Me

Sega:
Tricky 12 - Menace
Taxing 3 - Heaven Can Wait We Hope
Taxing 11 - The Ascending Pillar Scenario
Mayhem 23 - Going Up

(Save Me does not exist in the Sega version)

Whoever commented something like "That's why it's Mayhem 28" - may I remind you that plenty of the late-Mayhem levels are extremely easy. Mayhem 24, 26 and 30 are all very easy.

Sorry, yes, I understand that. They could have done a better job with the level order (assuming they wanted the order to go from easiest to hardest). I guess I was giving them the benefit of the doubt with this one.

At least they did a bit better job in ONML, sort of.

There are a lot of levels in the PC version that aren't in the Sega, and vice-versa. 'Rendezvous at the Mountain' also wasn't in the Sega, but it was replaced by 'Lemming's Ark'. I miss some of the Sega levels!

I actually thought that all Mayhem levels between 24-30 except 29 were far too easy.

"Have a Nice Day!" was EXACTLY the same as the solution I first found of Tricky 13. Just a Minute (Part 2) is simple timing. Mind the Step is simply keeping your attention focused. Rendezvous at the Mountain and All or Nothing... well... those don't need explanation.

Levels that posed problems for me as a child:

Taxing 3: The time limit, or so I thought at the time, was absurdly tight. I can do it now with a reasonable success rate now.

Taxing 11: It's all a matter of not clicking on 7 right-facing lemmings in a row. Ugh.

Taxing 13: Ugh. Just, ugh.

Mayhem 5: I hate this level. As a child, I didn't think to make several blocker collection areas, but I was never able to get the lemmings to build the right way going up.

Mayhem 9: I was a wasteful player at that age. 12 builders kept me stuck on this one for almost as long as Taxing 13.

Mayhem 20: Probably the best "puzzle" level in Lemmings, this one took me forever to figure out.

Mayhem 29: Erm, it's Mayhem 29. What more do I need to say?

What's exactly difficult about taxing 13?

It's not at all hard for me today, but back then... I just had a really, really, really hard time with it. I think I failed at least 500 times on it.

Mayhem 20 is good, but I picked it up pretty quickly.

Also - Rendezvous At The Mountain IS in the Sega version. Sega Master System at least. Here's the levels that aren't(in brackets are the names of the replacement levels):

Fun:
20. We Are Now At LEMCON ONE (Sega One)
22. A Beast Of A Level (Go For It)
26. Nightmare On Lem Street (Sega Two)

Tricky:
14. Menace (Menace. Same name, different level)
25. Cascade (Sega Three)

Taxing:
15. What An AWESOME Level (What An Awesome Level. Same name, different level)
21. Feel The Heat (Sega Four)
30. We All Fall Down (Sega Five)

Mayhem:
9. Curse Of The Pharaohs (Sega One. Harder version)
12. The Far Side (Sega Two. Harder version)
13. The Great Lemming Caper (Sega Three. Harder version, also the terrain is modified from the Tricky version of this level)
17. Stepping Stones (Stepping Stones. Same name, different level. Harder version of Tricky 12)
18. And Then There Were Four (Sega Four. Harder version)
21. With A Twist Of Lemming Please (With A Twist Of Lemming Please. Same name, different level. Identical to PC Taxing 21)
22. A Beast II Of A Level (Nearly There)
29. Save Me (Sega Five. Harder version)

Conway might have meant the Sega Megadrive version; I know "Lemming's Ark" is a level for that version.

Well, there were lots of levels that had me stuck for a while when I first played them, but then, I was very young........

Tricky 14 (Menacing): just could not abide the music -- or for that matter the sound of it with music off!

Tricky 25 (Cascade): I was VERY squeamish. Watching seventy lemmings turning into mush was not my idea of fun.

Taxing 6 (Compression Method One): hell, I'll never forget how happy I was when I suddenly realised how to do it.

Taxing 11 (The ascending pillar scenario): what I found hardest here was just trapping them in the first place, given the very limited space; I'd used miners before on levels like Taxing 3 but it never occurred to me to use diggers. I think I did it in the end by some sort of mixed mining and digging.

Mayhem 2 (The Boiler Room): because it uses a unique trick and until I got it it looked impossible

Mayhem 14 (Pea Soup): because I was on a black and white machine at the time, and the "peas" don't show

Mayhem 21 (With a twist of lemming please): shamefully, the one level I never solved; I had to get my friend Joe to show me the solution. I don't really know why I found this one such a problem.

Mayhem 26 (The Steel Mines of Kessel): because this one is hundreds of times harder on the Mac version, harder than any other level on either game. Took me ten years, after which I found the remaining levels really easy.

Well, about Mind the Step... you REALLY need to keep your attention VERY focused.

Mayhem 20: I agree, this is a great level. You need intuition, otherwise...

Mayhem 29: honestly, it's a very hard level, but one "sees" quickly the only way to beat it. The hard part is to put the basic idea in practice, expecially considering the 2 blockers / builders needed at the end.
I played it recently and passed after some attempt.

I think the hardest levels are those where one doesn't imagine how to do. There are some levels in Havoc I still have to figure out the way (havoc 4 and 19).

Yes, Havoc 19 is beautifully hard.

What I really love about it is that until you work it out it looks literally impossible.

Havoc 4 is painfully difficult. I was stuck on that one for ages.

I back-routed Havoc 19 at least two ways before seeing the right answer. My very first solution as a child involves building into the cliff twice, making a wall to turn the lemmings while still on top of the structure.

A level I had a hard time with in ONML is Havoc 14. I'm really bad with coordinating things.

I was only about 8 years old when my dad and I first started playing Lemmings, so, needless to say, he beat most of the levels before I did.  Here are some of the levels that gave us problems (Please note that this is the PC version of the game):

Tricky 19:  I remember my Dad taking a long time trying to figure this one out because we didn't know the trick of sending a climber to the top and mining down.

Taxing 4:  My dad kept getting zapped by the traps, and he often lost too many lemmings before he could do something about it.  I simplified the solution several years later by taking an outside route.

Taxing 6:  We didn't know that the traps only zap one lemming at a time, but my dad eventually beat the level when he learned that he can bash through the top few pixels of steel.

Taxing 7:  I kept running out of time!  Now, I still usually beat it with less than 15 seconds to spare.

Taxing 11:  My dad never did figure this one out -- he was stumped for three weeks!  I finally beat it for him.

Taxing 13:  My dad kept running out of skills here.  I didn't see him play it much, so I don't remember any more details.

Taxing 15:  My dad kept trying to bomb his way through the spikes to get up to the exit.  I quickly discovered how easy it is to simply build over the hard parts.

Taxing 23:  My dad kept running out of builders on this level.  Now I can save 100% with several builders to spare!

Taxing 29:  When I got to this level, I still didn't know the Climber-Miner trick, so I kept running out of bridges.  My dad finally showed me the solution.

Mayhem 11:  My dad didn't even attempt this level!  He said that I had to do it because my reflexes are better!  I beat it with no trouble at all.

Mayhem 28:  It took my dad three weeks to beat this level!  He kept running out of builders.  Now that I am efficient with builders, I can beat this one easily.

Mayhem 29:  My dad beat this in one evening, but it always took me several tries to get it right (my builder would keep turning around before I got a chance to bash through the pillar near the middle part of the level).

Now, I can easily beat every level, so I try for 100% solutions.

My mum got stuck on some of the levels in FUN! Fun 16, 17 and 28 all had her stuck for AGES. I don't think she even tried Tricky.

I have passed neither, I'm sorry to say.

YES!!!!!! Just beat Havoc 20 at last this morning -- so that's every level of both games!

Now I've just got to beat "Final impediment" and I've beaten all the Genesis levels..... then I guess it's the SMS ones next...... and I suppose if I really want to do the thing properly I have to beat "All the 6s" and "Ohayo Lemming san" if I can somehow find a version with them........ it never ends, does it?  :P

EDIT: Now that I've looked at "The Lemmings Solution" and GameFAQs for that level, it seems my solution was rather different.... and quite a bit easier. I ignored the right lemmings totally, used bombers rather than my second miner to get through the wall before the long ascent, and mined with the left lemmings under the right trapdoor to bring the two sets of lemmings together. If I could be bothered to keep trying I could have saved one more than the requirement this way.

I've passed all PC levels, and all Genesis levels except "Final Impediment", which looks so daunting that I can't be arsed with it.

I passed the original lemmings in 2001 on the Amiga. It wasn't a certain level that I was stuck on, it's just that I actually never bothered to complete it before. I think It was "No added colours or lemmings" that I gave up on first. It's the only original level I needed to consult a walkthrough for, then it was "Save me", which can be just damn fustrating at times.
I passed Oh No! on the Playstation later that year, with great help from a walkthrough (that I needed from the middle of Crazy onwards ;)). So now , thats both versions. I always prefered the original lemmings to Oh No!, and I always will.

As for the Sega Megadrive, I have the last levels of the last three settings to complete.

Oddly enough, I've spent more time making a Lemmings site than I have on completing the game, therefore I havn't finished any of the games, but I'm working on it.

It actually isn't that difficult - I found the last two Sunsoft levels and "Private Room Available" to be more difficult to complete.

Anyways, I've completed Lemmings for Windows and the Mega Drive (which I didn't manage until this year, mind). I've yet to complete Oh No!, however, thanks to "Where Lemmings Dare" and "Look before you leap".

I never had that many problems with "Where Lemmings Dare" -- in fact, I think I've passed it with one more lemming than is required (Which, I think, is 97% required, so 98% saved). The hardest part (to me) is the first part, building at the right time so the lemmings aren't eaten.

"Look Before You Leap" took me several attempts because I am not good with bomb timing.
