![]() The better you get at the game the more accurately you can judge shots, allowing for epic grenade throws or beautiful bazooka shots that utilize the wind. If you want to get serious then accounting for cover, terrain destruction and more is vitally important. Bazookas, grenades, old ladies and pretty much everything else leaves huge craters in the landscape that can be used for cover, or that just make the map much harder to navigate. Then you have to toss in loads of terrain destruction that deforms the map with every turn taken. Things like baseball bats, uzis and fireballs are easy to aim, but when it comes to bazookas and grenades you’ve got to choose the force with which it fires, account for the travel arc and adjust for wind, so it’s not uncommon to see people to wildly misjudge the shot and be forced to watch as an explosive calmly arcs back toward them. It’s turn-based action, so each round you’ll be given a certain amount of time to move around by crawling, jumping, swinging around on ropes and even jetpacks, pick a weapon and blow merry hell out of the enemy, or in some cases yourself or the rest of your own team. But if you aren’t familiar with the series then let’s have a quick recap two teams of worms duke it out for supremacy using an array of weapons that range from simple shotguns to holy hand grenades, super-sheep, old ladies and huge concrete donkeys that fall from. This is straight-up 2D worms action that feels reminiscent of Worms Armageddon. Team17 have actually kind of gone back to basics. ![]() It seems a bit silly, then, that to achieve success with W.M.D. Despite this, though, over 70-million Worms games have been sold, and with such huge success comes an unwillingness to give the franchise up. Over the years Team17 have put out a lot of Worms games, and the series’ quality has wavered with many critics and fans growing disillusioned with the lack of any meaningful additions to the formula. Growing up they were a staple of my formative gaming years, the turn-based action becoming engrained in my psyche. Man, the Worms games have been around for a long time now.
