Stunning graphics and amazingly intuitive controls 

I was amazed at how sharp and beautiful the graphics were upon starting up this game on the PSP. What shocked me even more was how intuitive the controls were. Even though this game is over a decade old, it is the perfect PSP pick up and play game. the PSP wide-screen enhances one's ability to follow the action. The number of levels is almost infinite as you can create your own levels and also download levels from others (I have yet to be able to connect to try this out) and also download additional offical levels from the official website. Combined with Me and My Katamari, Lemmings makes for a must have for addictive puzzle fans on the PSP. 

 

Very simple fun game

We got this for our son for Christmas, He has played it several times and has great fun with it. As a child I used to play an earlier version of this game on the computer, I'm glad to see my son enjoys on his PSP it as much as I did on the computer. 

Great Remake!
This was one of my favorite games back in the day, and the psp overhaul has definitely done it justice. The backgrounds and graphics are beautiful, the music has been updated and the new music is nice and ambient. It has all of the original stages, ~35 brand new stages, a complex level editor, and best of all, you can download other people's created stages so the fun never ends!
Not your typical PSP game
This game is really great fun for people of all ages. There's no real violence (well, lots of lemmings die, but the goal is to save them!) and no dialogue at all. The point of the game is to get the lemmings to a safe house, but they all follow each other. In most levels, you have to prevent them from walking off cliffs, drowning, etc. by using tools or skills that you're given. For instance, you could build stairs, or open an umbrella while jumping off a cliff to lighten your fall. Stuff like that. The easy levels are really easy and the hard ones are really challenging, so there's fun for all. My only complaint is that the lemmings are so tiny on the screen, even though you can magnify.
