Lemmings 2: The Tribes

Game review

Lemmings 2: The Tribes is the sequel to Lemmings and the Oh No! More Lemmings, in which you have to get the little Lemmings home safely. Unlike the first one, the sequel also contains a cartoon intro with a story. In it, a grandfather tells a little boy a story about what happened to the Lumières you saved in the first volume. They got to the island, where they split into twelve tribes, which are supposed to unite on Wednesday. So the game contains twelve different worlds of ten levels each, and after solving each of them you will get a part of the talisman. The game ends with the composition of the entire talisman, when it depends on the number of rescued lemmings - you either get gold, silver or bronze.

The sequel to Lemmings has a plot describing how the Lemmings have split into 12 distinct tribes, each of which has their own landscape and their own cultural identity - they include Egyptian, Circus and Highland. However, Lemming Island is now in danger, and you must complete 10 levels for each tribe in order for them to reunite and reassemble the Talisman from the 12 pieces. Lemmings 2 features more detailed graphics than its predecessor, with scrolling in all directions. There was a significant increase in occupations. There are now over fifty of them, for example a pole vaulter, a rogalist, a swimmer, a runner, even a lemming on a flying carpet and many others. Across the 120 levels there are over 60 skills, although no more than 10 are in use on each screen. The Classic tribe has the ones from the original and is perhaps the best option for first-time players.
