Lemmings binge

Has anyone ever had to recover from Lemmingaholism? I've been on an extreme binge playing Lemmings for quite some time now and I need to find something else to do with my life. Perhaps a new girlfriend...

Luckily I haven't played it for a while now and no I wont do it 'cause I know it's strongly addictive Lemmings (and all the addons and sequels) is really fun to play and really hard to let loose. So that girlfriend idea sounds not bad IMHO

I've gone mad on Worms at the minute and my partner refuses to play with my worm

Oh Worms is something special as well. My freshman year of college, all my roommate and I would do is sit around and play Worms over a LAN. It was epic.

I never totally recovered from lemmings.
Even my computer is "hostnamed" "Lemming"

It's still a real pleasure to play sometimes. My favourite : "Lemmings 2 : The tribes".

There's a way to recover from it...
when you've memorized all the solutions to all of the levels.. my favorite "trick" was when I learned to mine under blockers so that they "unblock"


But I still keep coming back to the original game and listen to the tunes.

I had a CD somewhere with the entire soundtrack, including the Beast level that they did, but I can't find it

I used lemmings as a test to see if my A3000 was working... three hours later I decided it had passed the test.

When I first discovered Lemmings, it was with a friend of mine, on his A500. Of course, we didn't have the manual.... and we thought at first to kill'em all .
We used a lot the "nuke" button, for about 30 minutes...

Then suddenly, a big idea ran in our minds : "What if we tried to sav'em all?".

We spent the whole night to play
