Lemmings is a very popular computer game which has been available on the computer market for several years. The aim of the game is to save as many lemmings as you can by helping them with their journey. Lemmings is a very addictive game and once one starts to play it, it can be very difficult to stop. The appeal for the game may also have been generated because of its wide parental support. In contrast to other computer games on the market, it is not a violent game like Street Fighter 2 for example. Parents are therefore keen to buy it for their children.
First I was starting to write some HTML. Then I looked for Lemming information on the Net. I found a lot of useful data out there distributed around the world but there was no site for the Lemming games. As I like the games a lot (oh, really?) I decided to do something myself which gave me the opportunity to put something more useful (at least I think so) onto the Web than the usual link collections on standard peoples' homepages (take a look at my non lemming pages and you will know what I am talking about...). So hereby I present to you the work of endless hours (I wouldn't want to know how many) of net search, news/email reading & replying and painting which started in late January 1995.
Have fun and email some feedback (positive is preferred, negative one might only be accepted if substantiated :-).
