Well, I got the much-talked about Lemmings demo from AB20 (well, at least the game has been much talked about :-)), and I have been playing it for a little while. Now, I have managed to get past level 4 of the game and of course am on to level 5.. And that is the problem. I thought that this demo version of the game was only supposed to have the first 4 levels. Although looking at level 5, I can see that it is next to impossbile, given the amount of "lemming tools" that you have to work with. Can anyone tell me if that is what is supposed to happen? I would think that if it were just a demo, that it would say "Great, now go buy the real game" or something like that. ;-) E-Mail, or whatever works.. :-) -- + "Amiga.

Once you complete it, it will say as much. Tabor Wells twells@eecs.cs.pdx.edu BTW Level 5 is do-able. And you'll kick yourself once you see how easy it is. ;-) >-- >+ "Amiga.

[stuff deleted] >course am on to level 5.. And that is the problem. I thought that this demo >version of the game was only supposed to have the first 4 levels. Although [more stuff deleted] There are actually two demos in circulation. One was sent to dealers and has 5 levels, the other was included in disk magazines and has three levels. Level 5 IS hard, it took us 3 days to figure out how to get through it, and its a toughy! It is quite possible, you just have to use lots of brain power. This is one of the reasons I like lemmings so much, you really DO have to think about what your doing. --------------------------------------- | patrick_meloy@outbound.wimsey.bc.ca | | 'The Outbound' BBS Vancouver BC | ---------------------------------------

And you'll kick yourself once you see how easy it is. True, only took me about half an hour of beating my head against the wall to do it, but it *is* pretty simple. It's some of the levels in the *real* game that get tough... :-) -- -----------------------------------------------------+------------------------ So Bill, tell us about holographic food. | Steven King | Software Archaeologist | veck@ddsw1.MCS.COM
