![]() ![]() While a game that you spend more time watching than actually playing (Final Fantasy anyone?) could be a problem, you'll be so interested in what's happening during somebody else's turn because you never know what you'll see. You can determine whether or not worms will take damage when they fall, how long they have to run after dropping off explosives and all kinds of other minute little details.īecause it's a turn-based strategy game, players will spend a lot of time simply watching Worms Armageddon do stuff rather than actually controlling the action. The accents are of particular interest here considering Worms Armageddon's European heritage (the PC games were done by Team 17) it has an interesting take on American and British dialects.Īll of the customization available in Worms means that you can really set up a different experience every single time you play the game. You can set your team's language, accent, special weapon, tombstone and identifying flag. You can make a team that can be saved to the cart and use it any time after that. ![]() ![]() The solo game, including the training missions are plenty of fun and challenging to be sure, but playing Worms with buddies makes for one heck of a party game that rivals even Mario Party itself. Even when you see someone attacking one of your worms, as you sit anxiously awaiting for your turn, there's a chance that someone's grand plan of attack, say a devastating frag grenade, there's always a chance that it will backfire and you're guy will be okay. When you attack with the skunk, which makes worms sick and forces them to literally cough up five points of health every few seconds, you have to make sure it won't come back to bite you in the end. It's not enough that there's a way to attack worms with an exploding old lady, it's that all of the weapons require some practice and a little nerve to use effectively. We've already done a feature on weapons in Worms Armageddon so please feel free to check it out. But what about a skunk attack or the Holy Grenade? These are the attacks that will bring the most enjoyment to both the aggressor and the victim because it's just so cool to watch. You get conventional pistols, rifles, bazookas and grenades like any good violent game requires. Since worms aren't the most ferocious creatures, the variety of weapons available are wide and varied. When you get one member of your four man army starting off in a little cubby hole, or on a little island by himself or balanced on top of a paintbrush you start to understand that this game is much tougher than its cute appearance suggests. Your worms are mobile but can only inch as far as their little half inch bodies can will allow them too. It's all done in a straight-up 2D world where everything that isn't in the background, where you can see wind blowing, is solid and an obstacle to deal with. ![]() In a nutshell, you have a limited time to move one of your handful of slimy worm soldiers -complete with its own accent and vocabulary- attack and enemy and then move away. Worms isn't quite that cool, but it does capture the excitement of actually watching pieces destroy each other in a very traditional game of strategy.
