What if… Lemmings were actually trying to get to safety and you had to kill them

 

The classic game Lemmings has given countless headaches to many players, and it has also inspired many to make their own variations upon the concept. But did you ever ponder on the notion what kind of game it’d be like, if it was about making them die instead? If so, you are in luck today, because this entry explores that idea.

In Doomlings, your goal is to get a specific number of the mindless creatures killed, but where Lemmings will mindlessly walk into all sort of dangers, Doomlings will try to survive and reach the exit… because it would have been too easy otherwise.

Across many levels, you have to make sure that the required amount of Doomlings do get killed. As in Lemmings, there are several tools at your disposal, which change on each level. You can use them to interact with the environment and make sure this doomed souls actually meet their maker.

This action puzzle game will push your quick thinking and evil instincts to the limit as levels get more complex and your toolbox expands. While the Doomlings want to reach safety, it is your job to make sure that they don’t.
