Some pit you against a whole team of foes with only one worm to do the job and there is a certain type of fun to be had trying to figure out a plan to survive and take out the enemy. When it comes to playing the game on your own, the game offers a fairly long campaign with a surprising amount of variety to the missions. The formula still works but is severely hampered by the fact that the bad camera is just as likely to mess up your game as a generous weapon drop delivered to your friends doorstep. The weapons are so silly and sometimes so outrageously powerful that it creates a fun dynamic when at any time you can pick up a crate containing a weapon that can completely turn around the game. The ways you can mess with your opponents are made even more enjoyable when you can get direct feedback from them. In my mind, one of the true strengths of Worms has always been the local multiplayer. The silly humour which holds up for a little while if you haven’t played a Worms game recently, but could use a bit of variety. The horrible AI which can always be replaced by a friend or an anonymous stranger. The always surprisingly deep strategic elements which are somewhat hampered by poor camera control in this 3D iteration of Worms. It’s a fan-service for gamers like me who eat it up but it’s still the same experience in similar wrappings.Įverything that you will love and hate about Worms is still there. In recent years, Team 17, the game’s developer, has done little to add to the experience other than porting older iterations newer platforms.

Each game preserves all the features and online functionality of their downloadable versions.As a long time fan of the Worms franchise I’ve always had a soft spot for those cute, cuddly little murder-machines. It includes three best-selling titles including the original and classic 2D turn-based strategy game Worms, the feature-heavy and explosive Worms 2: Armageddon and the 3D cartoon craziness of Worms Ultimate Mayhem.Īll three games are available together on a disc for the first time.

Worms Collection is jam-packed with three hugely popular Worms games previously available via download.
