    Sticklings is a unique puzzle game with the mission to get a herd of Stickmans into their goals by using various abilities. Like a Lemming, a Stickman just walks and walks and it is your objective to correctly assign the correct task to a Stickman to lead all other Stickmans the correct path. Abilities include blocking, self destruct, jump, bomb throwing, rush and bridge building. Levels are limited by time with the option to earn gold, silver and bronze medals. And if you fail, there is always the option to Nuke em!

    Couple of questions... one App Store review said this breaks after level two... is this fixed in the upcoming update?

    Second, are there any IAP in this?

    We are not aware of any problem and are pretty sure it doesn't break after any level. Regarding the In-Apps, no, there are no in-apps in it.

    Liking this so far - neat little lemmings clone, level 12 and only one crash so far - think maybe when the nuke counter ended with no guys left on screen (they'd all fallen off.)

    One tiny request, please can we select the bottom buttons while it's paused? Used to play the SNES lemmings and did that all the time. Haven't played it for 25 years and couldn't have told you I used to do that, but as soon as I was playing this I found myself trying to. Weird.

    Oh, and there are pop up ads for their own games which are irritating - they pop up quickly and tapping anywhere but the small x opens the App Store. Shouldn't stop anyone buying this, but annoying.

    Really enjoying this game as I used to love Lemmings!

    A couple of things though. Firstly when I am listening to my own music while playing the game the volume is automatically lowered which is annoying. This is the case even if the sounds of the game are switched off.

    Secondly, it seems to be impossible to get a gold star on Level 3. I feel like I have done it the quickest possible way and still get Silver.

    Overall I am really liking it so far though.

    Thanks for the hint, we will fix lowering audio if game audio is turned off.


    Oh, level 3 is/was possible. You had to place the left blocker directly over the goal, only then you would have reach gold. But with the latest update we made level 3 and a few others much easier.

    Yeah, Lemmings! Sorry, Sticklings!
    Whatever the name, this is a type of game I like. I played the hell out of Meerkatz which is also family of the lemming.

    First impressions are good after having played 10 levels or so.
    I have some feature requests:
    - a quick retry button. Now the fastest I can retry is touch twice the nuke button, and then "retry", but "retry" takes some time to have effect.
    - an indication what are the gold/silver goal times (for example show it when having finished a level)
    - a leaderboard for total number of sticklings saved (and let the levels fully play out; maybe as a secondary mode that unlocks at some point?)

    Stick, I mean stuck, on 15. No idea what to do. Cannot bomb the green pendulum or the blue block. Putting lots of stick longs (weight) on the blue block also doesn't do anything. What is the key mechanic here?

    Would be good to be allowed to skip say two or three levels to come back to them later.

    [edit] ok, watch 3 videos to skip a level ;-)
    By the way, weird to have leaderboards for gold, silver and bronze separate ... Why is having the most bronze interesting at all? The 3, 2 and 1 star system makes much more sense
