And the cheeky sense of humor present through all the games is still there, now updated with even more references. The whole game looks stunning for its simplicity, and it feels like Worms.ĭespite being made on a brand new engine, jumping, ninja roping, and carefully firing bazookas into the wind all worked just as I’d hoped.
Digitally painted environments and characters that are downright gorgeous, especially compared to the 3D models of the games that came before it. Team17 has stripped out the different worm stats and fancy water physics, and returned to 2D art that looks the way you (incorrectly) remember Armageddon looking. It’s a homecoming for a series that may have strayed a little too far down the path of modernizing for the sake of modernizing. But the next installment, Worms WMD, is a love letter to Armageddon.
