Worms (World)

Worms gameplay context

Developed by Team17 and initially launched on the Amiga in 1995, Worms (World) isn't just a game—it's the blueprint for chaotic turn-based artillery combat. You command a team of wise-cracking, grenade-tossing worms across 2D landscapes that you can blow to pieces, creating pure strategic mayhem with friends that defined couch multiplayer for a generation. Worms includes region marker: World, which helps separate this page from nearby ports, regional releases, and similarly named entries.

• Deceptively Deep Turn-Based Combat
  Beneath the slapstick surface lies a game of angles, wind physics, careful movement, and weapon conservation. You don't just lob a bazooka; you calculate its arc over three seconds, hoping the wind doesn't drift your shot into the water.
• A Legendary Arsenal of Absurdity
  While you start with grenades and bazookas, the magic lies in unlocking items like the exploding Super Sheep, the continent-spanning Concrete Donkey airstrike, and the Monty Python-inspired Holy Hand Grenade. Each match becomes a playground of unpredictable destruction.
• Pure 90s Multiplayer Energy
  This is peak local multiplayer. Huddled around a single screen, you'll experience the agony of a perfectly calculated shot that misses by a pixel and the glorious victory of using a ninja rope to land on an opponent's head for a falling damage kill.
