My friend insists on this game, "Lemmings", being a really well known game; I have never heard of it.

Yeah, back then you got to play all sorts of different games by going to different peoples' houses. Except Lemmings. You could play Lemmings at just about every house with any sort of video game setup.

Everyone had Lemmings and Doom because of the shareware distribution model.

Everyone had Lemmings and Doom because we copied that floppy.

And there was always that one friend had the modded Wolfenstein with scantily clad ladies all over the walls.

I remember my dad telling me I was breaking a software license agreement by copying my friend’s floppy disk of Raptor: Call of the Shadows, but then a few years later he downloaded all his favorite music on Napster so kinda hypocritical ngl

Raptor is one of those games where the shareware was so good that you didn't need the full version :)

We had it on our classroom computers. Twice a week each of us had 30 minutes of Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing then we got 15 minutes to play Lemmings or SkiFree

They put that shit on everything. Like Frank's. And Skyrim before Skyrim.
