    Worms Armageddon is the perfect game because I can play it with friends who have, like me, played it for literal decades, and we still do shit like "I accidentally hit enter instead of space and jumped to my death" and it's the funniest thing on earth

    It is easily one of the best games in the franchise and one of the best games ever made. It is impossible to get bored with this game. In single player you already have so much to do, but in multiplayer online every single match, every single round is different. The game is from 1999 and it is still getting updates and support and the servers are still running. That should say something about the quality of the game. You are even free from many corporate BS, since the game itself doesn't…

    You may think this is far-fetched, but Shenmue came out in 1999. That the same year as GTA 2, Pokemon Gold, FF8, Rollercoaster Tycoon and Worms Armageddon. This game is ancient and one of the first to do cinematics the way it did, fully voice acted too!

    Not recommended until WormNET becomes reliable again. Worms Armageddon is a classic and still one of the best Worms games ever made, but the online service is currently unreliable. WormNET sometimes takes a very long time to connect, and even when it appears to be working again, it can go down shortly after. This makes the online multiplayer experience inconsistent and frustrating. If the game is still being sold on Steam with online multiplayer listed, then the online functionality should…

    Classic Worms action, works over the internet still for multiplayer games, and it cost me next to nothing on Steam. What's not to like? Still a very playable game with lots of neat features, fun graphics and a good sense of humour, if a little twisted :-D (FYI: am running a ten year old desktop system, with Windows 10)

    I loved this game when I was growing up and I love it even more now I've introduced it to my son. Watching him experience all the joy of a concrete donkey, teaching him the finer points of using a ninja rope, poking a worm off the edge of a cliff into the water - Fortnite has nothing on this.

    I played this game decades ago, when I was a teenager, and have revisited it multiple times over my life on different platforms. This game has helped define gaming for me. It is one of those games that is the perfect combination of easy to pick up, hard to master... and it ages very well. Definitely the best one of the entire series.

    Although I started my Worms adventure with World Party (not that "remastered" one, god no), overall this is the definitive 2D Worms experience for breaking your friendships, whether they are online or not. The variety of weapons is superb, if you know how, you can basically put any image as a map and it will work right away. And by any image, I do mean ANY, you can check the Steam Community of this game. (you have been warned). Plenty of customization for your worms, (don't expect cosmetics,…

    Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition is also on sale for $8.49 on the PS4/PS5. If you have a PS4 this is easily the best or second-best way to play the game, tied with playing it on the Switch/Switch 2 with an 8bitdo Pro 3 controller. (PS5 is fine, but the graphics are smaller and harder to see).
