Genre: Action, Puzzle

















Release Date RRP Code

The Humans is a 1992 game by Imagitec Design Inc. and GameTek released for a variety of platforms including the Sega Mega Drive. The Mega Drive port was only released in the US.

The game is an action puzzle game similar to Lemmings. You control several cavemen to achieve various predefined tasks in a set amount of time. A switches between humans. Each human can do one of several predefined actions depending on the existing situation (for instance, forming a human ladder, picking up items, or throwing a spear), using C to switch actions and B to perform them. You have a limited number of humans to work with, and if one gets hurt too many times, they are out of the puzzle for the rest of the game.

For whatever reason, the Mega Drive port only allows you to choose between listening to music or sound effects, not both simultaneously.

Sega Mega CD ans Sega Game Gear versions of the game were reportedly in development at one stage.
