Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition is out now from @team17.com, bringing the classic PC game to consoles with a historical timeline and exclusive interviews too! digitaleclipse.com/games/wormsarmageddon
unlabelledView post →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…

It requires you to remember a dozen rules that are not a part of the game engine. If you touch your mouse you forfeit your turn. Me: ...I just wan tto blow up wrom :(

You just need to go and get 2 things, 1) [url=https://worms2d.info/SuperFrontendHD]SuperFrontendHD - Fixes the screen resolution issues & 2) [url=https://worms2d.info/WormNAT2]WormNAT2 - this lets you play with anyone online without forwarding ports and all that junk.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →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…

unlabelledView post →Timeless classic. Tried every other game of the franchise and this one is still the best. Surprised to see they're still updating it to this day. 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →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)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Classic worms. Performs well on any machine. Works in the year 2026 without any extra steps.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →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.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →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.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →And arguably the better game, Worms Armageddon Improved pretty much everything, whilst keeping the charm Graphics still look great, varied and fun weapons and great for both multiplayer & single player sessions My Dad couldn't play it much, as he struggled with the turn times (even at 90 secs 😂)

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →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,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Worms World Party came out in the US 24 years ago! (5/31/01) The definitive Worms experience, this turn-based Strategy-Game was created in large part to bring Worms NetPlay - or GLOBAL WORMING, as it was called - to Dreamcast, this is a revision of Worms Armageddon, which lacked SegaNet support

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →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).

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Launching sheep, dynamite and bananas trom on top of the actual letters "Electronic Boutique" in Worms Armageddon is such a good time, just played it last week with a friend via Parsec because only they had a copy of the game on Steam but if you and someone else does, the netplay still works!
