I never could understand the appeal of later Worms games, Scorched Earth was far superior. It has some minor flaw in it's economy: winning player had so much more money to spend on equipment, that it was very hard for a loser of a round to ever catch up, even with a far superior shooting.
- Markoff 4y agoWorms had superior graphics, superior UI, funnier weapons, funnier gameplay with cute worms and no economy from what I remember, so players were equal.
- Andrew_nenakhov 4y agoYou also played as a worm. Eew.
- eurasiantiger 4y agoIIRC there are settings for the economy. Also all the shooting/dying quotes can be changed, which was very amusing to us 10-year-olds.
- muzani 4y agoIf the genre was remade today, we'd have Minions instead of Worms.
- SamBam 4y agoWorms was my brother and my jam. We would play it all the time, and would give the worms personalities, and sometimes even avoid using a weapon with one worm because another worm was the "expert grenade thrower" or ninja or digger or whatever. The silliness, combined with the ability to rapidly traverse terrain (but only if you were skillful) was what made it fun, and more like a game than a math problem. I can't recall whether we felt that the best of the series was Worms 2 or Armageddon, but they were in the sweet-spot of the properly-bendy ninja rope, and cartoony and funny but no weird 3d stuff.
