Lemmings is such a fun game! I played many hours of it trying to perfectly solve its many puzzles.

Lemmings inspired Ron Millar, a designer at Silicon & Synapse (later Blizzard Entertainment), to invent The Lost Vikings, our first original game: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lost_Vikings

The original design for Vikings was very similar to Lemmings but saw massive changes during the course of development, going from many Vikings to five to eventually just three.

We owe a debt of gratitude to the Lemmings devs for inspiring our efforts.
