Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Not really sure whats up with the negative reviews. Its too bad Team17 didnt really follow up with support on this game. Would be really fun to have a fully supported worms game for newer iPhones.
All around well done. It can be hard to aim sometimes, but thats to be expected. Great game.
Ok Ill work with our mom birthday tomorrow night we can do a little bit early tomorrow night and mark the night night.
This game has been updated 4 years ago… At least some iOS compatibility please.
Loved playing this game as a kid, so happy to be able to play it on the go as an adult.
Very fun, easy controls, and hilarious game play. One of our favorite games. Needs iOS screen integration for bigger phones like iPhone XS Max. The screen is small when playing. Thanks again for a great game.
Love it! Reminds us of armageddon.
Ive played this game when we were young now to see it on here yes thank you.
Beautiful game but needs improvement.
We have been playing this game everyday.
Having tried many of Team 17s re-worms over the years, and seeing them struggle to make the best Worms 2 & Worms Armageddon PC games work on the new tablet/phone platforms, Im really happy to say theyve finally done it, and this app absolutely works with this amazing game. Well programmed, havent hit any bugs really, the single player is great for teaching newbies, and local multiplayer is an absolute blast. Easily worth the cost, this game is so fun to play with your kids, friends or multiplayer. Was pleasantly surprised to see that we bought one copy for our phone to test it out, and that apparently meant we didnt need to pay again to install it on our kids iPad etc.
The mission are fun and keep you engaged in the game, the graphics are very cool. But!! They should definitely have more landscape options for multiplayer gaming, and they should creat an update that wouldnt allow your screen to lock itself or go dark during an Online Multiplayer Match. That is a big problem for online games, which cause the entire game to freeze. Not cool. Thats the only complaint we have but this is definitely an awesome game.
Not worth the $5 thats for sure.
We like this game but we fell like its missing the key element in Worms games, chaos. The matches are good for playing in short burst but not good for long term gameplay. Some of the levels are hard and its hard to unlock the costumes too. Overall pretty good but a little pricey for what it is.
Is a great game for having low graphics.
Your game is awesome make worms 5.
Great game for whatever moment you have. Great also when on vacation and you need a little laugh.. Thank you for such a Great game.
Prob one of our top fav mobile games.
The daily challenges haven't given loot chests in over a week. Otherwise it's a great game. Our only question is why the direction buttons are now each tiny joysticks instead of having only one direction per button. This makes game play frustrating at times.
Very easy to play and great entertainment.
We love this game. Been playing for years; awesome.
This game makes us want to kill our self.
There appears to be no one playing the game so finding online matches is hard. Other then that great game.
Great work guys you have done it again! Never change.
What a classic. This game is epic. You can't go wrong with worms, and we're glad they didn't cheese it out like most iPhone games. A little bit slow waiting for Ai worms to get done but not too bad.
The controls are nearly perfect, despite being virtual controls! The game is great, and reminds us of worms 2 for PC. Definitely worth the buy.
The weapon mods is a great idea and so glad they ditched the cards.
The campaign is insanely fun. The controls are near to perfect and the gameplay is almost entirely enjoyable. We say almost because of one issue. The multiplayer isn't customizable. We would love if we could add weapon layouts and play in forts mode. The current set up for multiplayer is good, but it would be much better with customization. Still 5/5 stars because of how fun the game is.
The gameplay we remember and the weapons we love! Play for five minutes against the computer or go online and battle friends for five hours. It's hilarious and fun.
This is a great entry into the Worms series. It's highly addictive, fun, and sometimes so frustratingly hard to get 3 stars that you'll want to throw your phone/tablet across the room…but even then you'll just keep trying. This is honestly one of the best purchases you can make in the App Store.
Muy buen juego llevo aos jugndolo lo recomiendo.
This is by far the best version of worms for the mobile world. The new menu system takes a bit of getting used to but after a little bit of time the whole thing just makes so much sense. Double tap on a worm and you zoom right in. The controls have been redone to the max, just a streamlined version of the older worms 3. A must have for all.
Honestly love the game. Chests wont open. Makes the game freeze. Then we have to delete and redownload each time. Very frustrating. Can we fix this so we can play.
One of those games that we never get tired of. 4 stars because the app hasnt been loading right lately. Server issues we assume.
We love this game so much but then like when you press start it loads for like 10 minutes and that happens with our brother and our phone is a IPhone 6 and our brothers is a 6 plus.
Love the worms series! To get that one extra star, would you guys be able to optimize the game for the newer iPhones? The screen size is stuck with the older generation of iPhones. Pleas and thank you.
When we make a team as soon as we get out of the app the next time we go in the app when we look at our team it erases it. Please fix it. But we really love this game except for that problem. We recommend getting this app.
- Enemy worms have to good aim which makes it hard to beat a level 2. Enemy worms have to fall farther down to take fall damage Questions 1. Why is the game 4.99$? 2. Y is multiplayer broken and battling with friends is oofed.
Just wish controls were a little easier to use and that weapons had descriptions when they were unlocked other than that its a pretty boss game.
We want our money back from this game can you get it back? Cuz.
Runs better than older Worms games but there are never any multiplayer matches. Dont really want to play mini games after matches, either.
We enjoyed this game like all the others but we absolutely despise selling your extra items. You have to sell them individually and it takes forever. And multiple times we try to use our cash to buy things and the game will take our cash but not give us anything for it. So kind of a rip off.
Disappointed, multiplayer is terrible. Don't waste your time or money.
This game is very good and we play it with our friend all the time. The only reason we are rating it for rather than 5 is because of the lack of customization in multiplayer.
The app is fantastic! Very entertaining, and fun levels. But… Some of the crate collects can be annoying.
More levels! We really enjoy this game, the costumes especially. —– still wish listening to our own music while playing would be possible.
A decent game. It needs to have the forth worm again. Platinum items need to drop more frequently, maybe a new chest in the war market for 5,000 that has 2x the chance for platinum.
Love the game as it takes us back to when we wore a younger mans clothes and we played the original game on PC. Very nostalgic. But, level 34 happened. Ive been stuck on that level for what seems like weeks. Tried customizing our worms differently, nada. The fight mechanics are geared to be impossible. We like a good challenge, but that level is impassable despite many variations of attempts.
Error when trying to connect through Facebook. This is the only way to play against your friends.
Please fix the aiming we miss so much times because we cant aim please it would make the game a 5 stars.
