Nothing like a good Beat 'Em up Game- Mortal Kombat holds some great memories for me; not only from playing around with the Mortal Kombat machine at my local swimming Pool when I was a kid, but for always getting so far and then getting beaten in the matches against two different fighers.

I used a blocker to keep the masses back and used another guy to build a very long bridge. You had to be very careful, seeing as the bridge builder would have to be made a bridge builder again after 5 bricks- concentration was they key, seeing as you had to listen up for three blips.

Th other level I didn't exactly enjoy was level 13 on Fun- 20 Lemmings, 20 have to dig their own holes to freedom. Hard.

Indeed. It required a pretty steady nerve- especially the level where you had to hold back a load of the little dudes whilst you had to use another to build a very long bridge to the exit.

I had those Lemmings games, my brothers and I would spend hours playing it, I use to like it when you finished building the various bridges and you could sit back and watch the Lemmings roll home. :D

The original Lemmings games: Sheer genius. Some excellent puzzles and strategies made by a small Scottish games studio (DMA) which later went on to do game design for Rockstar on the GTA Games.

I was quite a Lemmings fan, and proud owner of Lemmings, Lemmings Holiday Edition '93 and Lemmings the Tribes II. One of the first games series I mastered, at the age of about six. :)
