• Use tactics and cunning to face off against the rival worms across bizarre randomly generated landscapes

• Each battle has a time limit - win in the alotted time or you go into Sudden Death

• Worms die when they lose all their energy or fall into the icy water surrounding the levels

• Utility crates drop from above for added power -- use the jetpacks, gravity bombs & other weapons that drop from the sky

• Design your own custom levels for added excitement and fun

You get to go through different environments where your army of worms battles another army of worms utilizing weapons and skillful maneuvering. One of my favorite things about the game is when you fire a weapon, the environment will change due to the incurred damage from your weapons. This makes it more challenging and makes you think before you make a move... especially in multiplayer mode. And yes, you have to share a controller in multiplayer mode... big deal, it doesn't take away from the fact that the game is fun.

The worms are also pretty comical, their accents crack me up.

For less than $30... how can you pass it up? It's well worth the money, much better than paying $50.00 on other games... give it a try, it'll be worth it.

Third dimension doesn't add to this game  May 24, 2004 By W. A. McArthur Jr.
I first played Worms on my PC back in 96-97. I played it for hours with my friends. The 2D world was simple and easy to understand. The third dimension just added a lot of ambiguity to the game play. It's near impossible to use the wind to your advantage in 3D and the camera angles make aiming for opponents you cannot see very hard. Some people may enjoy this game, but I don't think anyone who loved the original 2D version will like this at all.

Who said 2D was better ?  Mar 19, 2004 By A very happy fan of Worms
Four years after playing at WORMS 2 for the first time, I could not believe it when I first heard about the 3D version of one of my favorite game. When I opened the box and put it in my PS2 and played, I re-lived the same exciting feelings of fun that had hit me when I discovered the previous version. For somedy who already played, five minutes will be enough to get going, for newcomers, it might be good to do the training missions and play versus yourself a little bit before going to harder missions like 'Challenges' or 'CPUvsHUMAN'. The adaptation to the console is perfect even for the cameras wich you cannot play without and the 3D effect is very good for something so fast paced. Finally, when they right 'There are thousands and thousands of landscapes possible' they really mean it. You can be anuywhere in any kind of field and scenery. Of course, you are always surrounded by water and death by drowning is very frequent. If you never played buy it, if you played prior versions, buy it anyway.

Have Fun


Recommended for the PS2.  Mar 06, 2006
This game was the ultimate blast.I remember playing the first worms game on the SNES at a friends house and I found this used at the local video for 10 dollars and I decided to get it.It is basically what you would expect from a Worms game,fun strategy and action game.My only complaint is that the camera can be really irritating at times and sometimes makes it hard to jump.But besides that,it is fun just give it a try when you get a chance,you won't regret it.


How much i like this game  Nov 10, 2005 By Joshua D. Kelly
I am writing this review because I slammed worms so much in the version of the game for PS2 "Worms Mayhem". If you played worms Armageddon or the original worms then this is the game that you want for pc, playstation or any system. It's the classic straight forward team against team warfare that made the original game. The multiplayer part makes this game. Unfortunately for the playstation it doesn't have an online mode so you will have to have some friends. I hope this isn't a problem for you. This game is completely addictive and you will definitely have fun with it.
