This port of Lemmings 2 sees the graphics stay mostly the same, with only some slight downgrades in quality and performance due to the less powerful hardware. Matt Furniss composed the new music which is just the original music rescored for the Genesis, and sounds substantially different due to the different soundcards and lesser sampling support.
This port of Lemmings is almost completely identical to the original Amiga release. The only difference is the rerecorded soundtrack and SFX for use on the Sharp's different soundcard. Unlike other Japanese releases, the soundtrack is the same score from the original Amiga release.
This port of Lemmings is graphically almost identical to the original Amiga release. However, the lack of sampling capabilities means that the FX and entire OST have been completely redone using the native soundchip.
This unreleased prototype was a planned arcade machine that reached a playable build, but never released to the public. The good hardware allowed the game to run a little faster. The intro was also a little redone, and a tutorial slideshow was introduced to quickly show people the basics at an arcade. It was planned to release in 1991.
The Game Boy Port of Lemmings 2: The Tribes is a major downgrade due to the much less powerful hardware, and the support of only a d-pad makes controlling this game a challenge. The graphics are much worse and the view is much smaller. The music also gets rescored for the game boy soundchip which only supports basic chiptunes.
The 3DO version of lemmings included a new 3d intro, sfx and music thanks to the newer hardware.
The DOS port of this game is mostly the same graphically compared to the original Amiga release, though there are some slight color changes (most notably in the UI which has changed from organe to yellow). The original AdLib (and by extension, Tandy 3-Voice) tracks are generally longer than the Amiga arrangement, and they play in a slightly different order. The track "The smiling blues" plays before "Much joviality" and "Not at all serious". This game was released as a stand-alone expansion or an add-on, and could picked up either as a 3.5" or 5.25" floppy disk.
The Game Boy version of Lemmings sees similar gameplay ported to a system that wasn't very suited to it, such as the tiny screen, lack of mouse and downgraded graphics.

The ZX Spectrum port of Lemmings features major graphical and audio downgrades due to system limitations, as were the norm with this system. The intro is also cut entirely.
The Philips CD-i port of Lemmings is pretty similar to the original release. However there are a few changes, most notably the brand new 2 minute long intro movie that completely changes the scene. Also, the UI is slightly tweaked and the soundtrack/SFX are of higher quality, with the soundtrack even getting slightly rerecorded with additional instruments. Unfortunately, the frame rate is incredibly, incredibly slow and choppy as well, making this a pretty undesirable port.
This Atari ST port is graphically very similar to the Amiga release, but has far downgraded music, sound (speech is absent), and worse color.
This port saw the same enhanced graphics and UI upgrade from their respective standalone ports return, as well as the higher quality music. However, an intro is absent.
This port is almost completely identical to the main release. However, the lack of game intro and the greatly reduced quality of sounds with a chiptune soundtrack due to the sound card makes this an overall inferior port.
Your task is to rescue the Lemmings across 120 levels of fast-paced puzzling. These creatures simply walk blindly through the world in the hope of reaching safety at the end of the level - unfortunately, these levels include steep drops, gaps in the ground, barriers, and rivers amongst other hazards. You are in control not of any individual Lemming, but of a cross-hair, which can be moved over any of the Lemmings. Along the bottom is a selection of functions that can be assigned to a Lemming, including climbing, floating, and bashing. You must click to select the appropriate function, then click on the Lemming to activate it. Each level has a different range of skills on offer, a different amount of Lemmings, and a different percentage target in order to progress.
