AI-powered picks based on gameplay, mechanics & feel

World of Goo

Like Lemmings, you're guiding a mass of simple creatures through perilous levels, but here the challenge comes from building precarious structures rather than directing their movement. Every level is a unique physics-based puzzle.

Bad North

While Lemmings is about guiding, Bad North is about defending. Both demand quick strategic thinking and resource management under pressure, but here your 'lemmings' are brave defenders against Viking hordes.

Bridge Constructor Portal

Combine the structural engineering of Bridge Constructor with the mind-bending physics of Portal, and you get a puzzle game that demands both creative problem-solving and strategic foresight, much like Lemmings.
