The Worms are extremely fun to play! This game goes in a circle.”You get a turn with the worms,he gets a turn with the worms,it goes back and forth until someone’s dead.”- JoshuaZimmerman
The game is fun and easy to learn for ant age,or type.It let’s you customize your team to the fullest,changing their voices,victory dances,tombstones and a bunch of other fun things.
You can create your own landscape,modify already existing ones,go online and beat the heck out of the competition.
The game keeps you entertained…well until you buy the sequel,which doesn’t really have that much more to offer,excluding different levels,some new weapons and so on.
Since the game came out before Christ,the price isn’t high (about 12 pounds) and buying a copy would not disappoint you.
To wrap up things,Worms Open Warfare is fun-filled game,that can be entertaining for any age.
