The SNES Lemmings port, faithful and still hypnotic. Pad precision is trickier, but the puzzles still shine today.

Is Lemmings still worth playing in 2026?

A port of DMA Design's classic, where you guide small suicidal creatures to the exit by assigning roles: digger, climber, blocker and many more. The real-time puzzle concept is still brilliant and the SNES version offers a wealth of ingenious levels. Pad control is less natural than a mouse, but the depth remains. A timeless puzzle of rising difficulty, as clever today as ever.
