Patience is the twelfth level of the Fun difficulty in Lemmings. It is also the seventh level of the Easy difficulty in Lemmings Touch. As part of the second column of the Easy difficulty, it is unlocked when the player attains five stars across the levels in the first column.
Strategy[]
Assign a Basher to the first Lemming as soon as it is next to the block wall to the right. The next Lemming will walk into the wall and turn left; assign a Blocker to this Lemming when it approaches the left edge of the floor. After the Basher drops to the other side, assign a Builder to it to make a path up to the Exit portal.
Atari Lynx strategy[]
Assign a Miner to the first Lemming to approach the stairs, to reach the platform below. Assign a Blocker to a Lemming at the left edge of this platform to keep Lemmings from walking off the map. Assign a Basher to a Lemming next to the wall. After it is done, assign a Builder to any Lemming to reach the Exit.
Alternatively, send Athletes over the wall; only 20 Lemmings must be saved in the Atari Lynx version of Lemmings.
Version differences[]
- Atari Lynx
- Only has 40 Lemmings and 20 must be saved.

- Patience and From The Boundary Line are the only two Egyptian style levels to not have any pillars in their layouts.
