The look on a friend's face when you skip their Worm across the water to a watery grave is hilarious and nothing compares to the camaraderie of a multi-player worm deathmatch. I've not played it over a network but Worms 2 (and it's semi-sequel, Worms Armageddon) is one of the best games to play with other people at the same computer - hands down, bar none. This game is not bad in single-player but it's multi-player where the game shines. This allows for not only infinite replay value but scads of variations as well - a very nice touch. The terrain, weapon effects, sound banks and many other options are completely adjustable. There are a range of sound banks for your use ranging from Americans to Scots and more may be added with the sound bank editor, a feature that offers a lot of customization.Īctually, overall, the game provides the chance for a huge amount of customization.

Usually these comments range from unintelligible to hilarious, usually the latter. The worms are very vocal and they won't hold back a single thought. If the graphics weren't enough, the sound will blow you away. While the cartoon-like graphics are quite cute and the results of death and destruction hilarious, it's all shown with a tongue-in-cheek style. If you merely looked at the graphics, you might think this game to be in the vein of lemmings but, again, would be wrong. The strategic and tactical options are limitless.

Want to take out that worm from across the screen? Use a guided missile or airdrop a rain of death upon him. Are you right on top of someone? Leave a stick of dynamite on their heads. The beauty of Worms 2 is that each worm under your command can employ many tools and weapons for maximum destruction. The catch is that wind and gravity always affected your shots so you had to aim and shoot accordingly. With them, you would exchange shots with each other until someone was hit. In that game, both you and your opponent had tanks. Worms plays out like an old game called Scorched Earth. Sounds simple, right? Well, you'd never be more wrong. Take a team of heavily armed worms and obliterate any other worm that isn't yours. The concept of the Worms series is quite simple. Worms 2 is the successful sequel to the original Worms, developed by the loons at Team 17 and published by Ocean.
