If you grew up in the age of old computer games you no doubt played Lemmings! The challenging puzzle game has players trying to guide there group of creatures, called Lemmings, from a starting point to an exit point. Victory in a level could only be achieved by saving a designated number of Lemmings. Along the way numerous obstacles need to be overcome that can involve a great deal of strategic planning. And now a new entry into the franchise has been released on iPhone and Android phones out of nowhere!

The new game, also titled Lemmings, is a free to play experience that brings the classic gameplay to mobile devices. In a recent PlayStation Blog post the developer of this new take on Lemmings, Sad Puppy, had this to say.

While I am not entirely excited about the free to play aspect of Lemmings, I am glad to see the series get a new release after 12 years. I am also bummed out the game won’t be releasing on the Vita as the touch controls would have been a perfect fit for Sony’s abandoned handheld.
