    Flockers is a clever game for the thinking gamer and those fans of Lemmings who have been waiting for so long for another quality puzzler in the style. If Team 17 can bring the level editor and level sharing ability over from the PC version in a future update, as well as a touchpad interface, I’d give it that last star.

    A Lemming-esque adventure from the creators of the legendary saga Worms. Deep and fun enough, but not very original.

    A solid Lemmings-inspired puzzler that's bound to make you feel a bit sheepish every now and again. [December 2014, p76]

    There are enough subtle changes in the gameplay over the classic Lemmings that justify taking a look at Flockers.

    Yes, the package is a little bit bare bones, and the gameplay never really mixes things up too much – but at this price, it isn’t something that you can really bleat about.

    Challenging puzzler – but it's still just Lemmings.

    Overly familiar and lacking variation, Flockers still manages to embrace that one-more-go mentality with its semi-addictive blend of strategy and sheep culling.

    Flockers doesn't do much that we haven't seen before in Lemmings. It's still a decent game though, but it lacks variation and certain levels will bring you a lot of frustration.

    Flockers is a decent game and although it doesn’t do anything new its gameplay is mostly enjoyable, with a few frustrating parts here and there.

    Not quite hitting the levels of Lemmings, but still a decent return for the genre.

    Joking aside, Flockers has character and is satisfactorily challenging for the most part, but is a dish best served in bite-sized chunks. This being the case, home consoles don't necessarily feel like the optimum platform for the game, so we'd like to see those sheep herded towards tablet pastures in the future.

    Most of the game's levels end up feeling like never-ending drudgery. [Issue#154, p.129]

    There's still fun to be had here if you're a mutton for punishment. [Dec 2014, p.87]

    Flockers is a simple clone of the old Lemmings, and it brings absolutely nothing new to the classic DMA Design's recipe. No need to invest in such a basic duplicate.

    Lemmings with sheep and gore executions. A solid formula but not enhanced by this game.
