Review
This is official description
Worms 3D continues the history of turn based strategy featuring a bizarre and outlandish array of deliciously explosive weaponry, mad animals, crazy speech and laugh-out-loud instances, in 3Dimensions! The new demo features loads of new wormy things for you to get your teeth into - two new levels, a new weapon set, a 2 player game and a single player game against mid-strength AI. Previous compatibility problems have been sorted too
This is a great opportunity for you to get a feel of what the final game will be like, as the new demo is based on the finished game code. Compatibility problems from demo 1 have been fixed, so the new demo will now run on all processors - including machines with pre-AthlonXP processors and machines running Microsoft Windows 98, NT.
The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 1.0
Worms is a really popular and famous franchise of 2D artillery games. In the game, enemy worm teams battle in a randomly-generated map. You could use a grappling hook to move around the level picking up weapons, power-ups and getting close to your enemies. You then had to attack them with a wacky weapon, measuring the power of the throw and the wind factor. The worms faction is a hilarious game to play, even the first one. But the developers of the game, Team17, were not happy with that, so they ditched the 2D environment for a full 3D environment. Thanks to this, the worms have the ability to move to a new dimension, making the aiming and firing process a bit more complex. The main problem with this 3D environment are the cameras: there are some of them where you cannot really see what you are doing or where you are aiming. But the same fun from the worms is there, as well as the wacky weapons and the strategy of the game, with the cute little creatures blowing themselves up. The multi-player is a blast as well. Try it first and see if you prefer the 3D environment to the 2D one. It is all a matter of taste. |
- Funny weapons, new environment.
|
- Some cameras are poorly positioned.
