Flockers™

Flockers™

Flockers bases on the Lemmings' game concept, but you should not expect an alike experience.

The nature of the sheep forces them to rely on the fancy abilities rather than tools that they have learnt throughout the long-term service for the worms, though there are placeable blocks they can climb. Frankly saying, the abilities are very few and the utilities too little to create diversity, but the environment makes a creative use of them, patching up a possibility of repetitiveness.

Flockers will challenge you with 66(!) levels, many of which players may find too demanding. The traps are countless, and some puzzles will keep you awake at night in search for the solution. The difficulty is especially visible when you aim to max out the game - you might start struggling at the beginning already. Because of that, I’d gladly see some saving feature, that could allow to correct mistakes or find out what contraptions do without pulling your hair out. The pause is much of help while in such trouble, unfortunately it’s far from perfect. You can’t place blocks or assign abilities while it’s active. Sometimes you have to pick a certain sheep among of an accumulated herd and if you happen to pick wrong, the whole run may go to waste.

Fresh take on Lemmings :) Think Worms Landscapes that are more diabolical, and Lemmings type of Game Play.

I loved playing lemmings when I was a child, this is the more grown-up version of it, with sheep instead of little pixilated men! Can be as gory or non-bloody if you so choose. The new environmental aspects are great, Tellaporters, gravity reversal, mines, sharp bone blades and, Worms driving Death Machines with saw blades and spikes ready to take out your flock without hesitation. Guide your Flock of sheep through the map using ability box’s you either start with or pick up along the way, to the trumpet looking exit vacuum. Making sure to do it as quickly as possible without losing too many of your sheep. Sacrifices are usually a necessity, except for rounds where you only have 1 sheep. Knowing that this game is still in Early Access stage, it’s one of the best functioning “Alpha’s” I’ve played in quite awhile.

A poor quality rip off of Lemmings. Really easy too.

Really needs to give the player a little time to work before the ninjas start running…some levels are impossible to save all the ninjas because it starts immediately after the first icon is placed. Black cracks in the graphics due to not enough masking pixels on the edges of the sprites. I loved Lemmings, think I played all the way through it way back when. I’d really like to recommend this as it’s similar and I like the ninja theme. Right now it’s a bit too frustrating. A few little fixes and this could be great! Thumb sideways?!

A very generic puzzle game, where mediocre could be said about everything in it - from graphics to sounds to gameplay.

The graphics in particular aren’t very crisp, and sometimes I found myself lost between the foreground and background. Nothing really stands out as exciting, and while nothing is particularly bad, nothing about it is particularly good.

I played the whole game in about 3hrs - probably more than the average person, as I initially wanted to collect everything, but gave up on this idea part-way through due to lack of interest.

So Many Me

So Many Me

People seem to like itemised lists so here we go.

WHAT I LOVED

-Challenging puzzles. So Many Me really pushed and probed my brain in unexpected ways. The deceptively simple mechanics can be used in devious ways thanks to a clever rule: You use your petrified clones as stepping stones or switch-stoppers, but instead of allowing you to reclaim your clones in the more expected first-in/first out fashion, it has to be done in a last-in/first out one. This means that the most intuitive “order” of actions is incorrect and you have to learn to think in a different way. This also has the effect of constantly keeping you barely ahed of resource-starvation as you have to leave most of your available copies behind to allow you to retrace your steps when you find the key item or power-up that a certain obstacle requires.

This is a great game, the art style, the cuteness, the story and even the puns.

It deffinatly isn’t for the faint hearted it requires alot of patiance and thinking outside the box. It will drive you nuts at times trying to solve the puzzles and the bosses.

There isn’t really much Killing its more so trying to work around the enemies and the enviroment but in saying that it doesnt mean there is no killing at all.

You can customize your many me’s with cute different outfits, and you also get the opportunity to be a Bird, a Jellysaur (yes thats right i said a Jellysaur!) and even a tank!

Liberation Mutagenix

Liberation Mutagenix

Liberation Mutagenix is a fun game that feels reminiscent of the older lemmings games, but stands out with its own identity of a uniquely polished artstyle. I really enjoyed playing through each of these levels and thinking about how to beat it until everything clicks. The game allows for you to trial and error as much as you want with being able to restart levels even with your tools already placed down, allowing you to figure out more complex puzzles levels without having to waste too much time on setup.

Very cool puzzle game.The mutations are a genius idea and provide great progression to the game.

Dwarflings

Dwarflings

This is a really likeable tactical puzzle game with oldschool taste which feels like the mix of Lemmings and Commandos. Here’re some reasons why you would like it (without particular order):

1. Art is simple, but very nice and with great attention to details, and quite a lot of them make you smile.

2. Rules and controls are very easy to learn, you do not really question how to play the game, you just play.

3. Levels are well-thought and each built around its own idea. There’s no complexity for the sake of complexity. Many of them will make you scratch your head, but once you get it right you go through. It never gets too long to bore you. Harder levels are sometimes followed with the easier to relax a bit, and then there’s a new puzzle.

Do not buy this, it is a terrible excuse for a game. It says it is “Lemmings meets Lost Vikings” but both of those were clever, well thought-out games that were fun - this is definitely not. Add in the covert in-app purchases and I think you have the measure of its design.

In short, you click one of a few icons to get the dwarf you are controlling to do something. The game has no charm, subtlety or depth. I am fairly sure that very few people continued far in, judging by the % ratings on each achievement. It only appears that I have played it for 11 hours because I idled it for the cards. I will now be uninstalling it and not wasting any more time on this poor effort.

FUN STUFF

Real player with 13.8 hrs in game

I bought this looking for a good Lemmings-style puzzle game on Steam.

Inklings doesn’t blow you away, but it’s solidly good: challenging and well-made.

It’s faithful to the original Lemmings with usable controls, simple understandable mechanics, and a unique graphics style.

It’s enjoyable.

The biggest con is that some of the puzzles aren’t super elegant, requiring hacky solutions or careful timing that is annoying to get right. But, if you’re looking for Lemmings, this is as good as you’re going to get.

Crossing Guard Joe

Crossing Guard Joe

Experience the thrills and spills of being a crossing guard in this action arcade game! Step into the working man’s boots of Crossing Guard Joe as he battles the combined forces of angry motorists and bureaucratic red tape.

  • The gameplay requires hands-on action and quick thinking. The drivers of Monoxide City have no respect for traffic laws, pedestrians, common decency, or YOU. They won’t stop for anything so you’ll need to be quick on your feet and able to make snap-decisions to safely shepard all the kids across the street.

  • The easy-to-learn 4-button control scheme is intuitive even to casual players. But the challenge of the levels ramp up steadily. Easy to pick up, hard to master.

  • Besides angry motorists you’ll also have to contend with the bureaucrats down at city hall hitting you with ever more strict rules regarding how many kids are allowed to get pancaked on a given day.

  • 5 days a week for 5 weeks. As you progress through the 25 level campaign you will face ever-worsening traffic conditions and environmental hazards. You start the game off with nothing but your trusty stop-sign and your pointing-arm, but as you progress you might find helpful objects, like barriers and traffic lights.

  • Your score is determined by speed, crossing-combos, and of course how many kids you manage to get across the street. Refine your strategy for each level for better scores and reach for the top spot on the online leaderboards.

Good luck out there, Joe. The kids of Monoxide City are counting on YOU!

What felt like an eternity was mearly 20 hours. I mostly played offline. The pain of this game is hard to put into words but I will try in the hopes that I will prevent someone like you from stumbling across a similar fate. To the game! All right, so this game is a puzzle based platformer. Buyer Beware! Don’t play this game if you have a weapon lying around. You might use it to shoot yourself, or worse, your computer. Don’t let it fool you, you won’t get lost in the sea of neverending copies of yourself, only in the sea of your despair. You’ll think you have one level completely figured out only to find that you did the whole damn thing wrong. And to make matters worse, if you press esc to scratch your nose or something, YOU LOSE ALL OF YOUR PROGRESS BACK UNTIL YOUR LAST SAVE. There is no pause button and you will froget on countless occasions losing up to ten minutes of hard work. You can expect to play each level around twenty to fifty times to move on to the next level. The sea of clones is mostly an anoyance as the character you play as has a different face than the clones. The “find” mechanic was therefore completely unnecesary. There will come a point in this game were you have put so much effort into getting where you are now that it would seem crazy to even think about quitting. At this monumental point you will just need to take a deep breath and keep on pushing. The only reason I reccomend this game is for the people out there who I know are like me and like a good challenge to help them froget about how much the world hates them. And for whoever is still reading this you should stop now because I am just going to keep on talking and there is no way that anybody can make me stop please go away it is New Years and I’m alone all by myself Why doesn’t anybody love me I think I’m just going to end it and I don’t mean this post becuase like I said I’m just going to keep on typing. My new gaming pc hasn’t come in the mail yet so I have to game on my school laptop with a pentium cpu and no graphics so I stumbled across this game literally stumbled and broke all of the bones in my body and im now in a full body cast because of the emotional trauma brought on by this game. I hear explosions the world is probably ending around me o wait it is firecrackers lit off by people at parties who have actually friends and enjoy life. Too bad that isn’t me o well I’ll just keep typing then. If any of you would like to read my ranting more you can find me on Donald Trumps Twitter acount.

It was interesting at first, but during the factory levels, it lost its quality. Turrets fire during black-outs a lot of times, not even giving you a chance to evade. It’s all a gamble by then. Easy and hard mode aren’t much different. By the time you get to the factory levels, the clones aren’t really a problem in either mode and the whole point of the game is not even there anymore. Instead, you get unfair black-outs as a replacement. It goes from needing good sight to needing luck. The game seems to become worse as it goes on. I never was even able to complete the factory levels. The start was decent though, as the clones actually were relevant then. Even if you take the factory out of the equation, it is filled with cheap deaths such as pitfalls and spikes at the beginning of the level that kill you before you can know what is going on if you start out moving (which you probably would be).
