Play Lemmings (Japan) on gb Online

Lemmings on the Game Boy came out in 1991, developed by DMA Design and published by Sunsoft. It was one of those thoughtful puzzle games that felt perfectly suited to handheld play, offering a quiet but demanding challenge during the platform's early years.

You don't control the lemmings directly; instead, you assign skills to individual lemmings to alter their path, such as building bridges, digging through obstacles, or blocking others to create a safe route. The main goal is to guide a certain number of them to the exit door on each screen, all while preventing falls, traps, or timeouts. The game requires careful timing and foresight, with levels gradually introducing complexity and risk. It feels deeply satisfying when a plan comes together and your little crew marches home.
