"3D makes it a better game than 2D versions!"
4 stars"

I own Worms 4 and Worms World Party, so I will base my idea of 2D Worms on that.

Worms World Party has more stuff (weapons, maps etc), but Worms 4 is a better game due to its being 3D. At first I mourned the loss of some weapons, a lack of maps and having to get crates more, but once I got into it, it was a much more fun game.

Because the game is 3D, it has better graphics. The extra dimension also adds some fun challenge to the game over 2D versions. E.g, in 2D versions, knocking an enemy worm into the water could be as easy as facing left, choosing baseball bat weapons and firing. Now you can't just point left; you have to aim properly.

Although it has less stuff than World Party, it has better features. You can design your own weapons, and save your game styles, which I couldn't do in World Party!

Conclusion: Less ‘stuff’, but more features, better graphics, and more fun gameplay.

Description

Updated to run under Windows XP/Vista.

Team 17 and Codemasters bring Worms back with a real blast in 2005 as the much-loved team carnage series returns with Worms 4: Mayhem, a new game that is as infectious and accessible as the classic Worms offerings.

The multiplayer mayhem and single-player shenanigans are spread over five themed zones - Jurassic, Camelot, Arabian, Construction and Wild West and, throughout the enlarged landscapes, the entirely destructible scenery works with even greater effect, along with the much-loved worms' armoury - now with an even bigger choices of weapons and fun along the way.

In single-player modes there's even more beyond the day-to-day business of destroying worms. Through the 25 missions, you're also charged with objectives such as recovering items or smashing scenery. All the single-player maps are available to play in multiplayer mode, along with a further set of 20 multiplayer-specific maps.

With bold levels, an improved 3D camera and animation system, a stunning arsenal delivering comedy kabooms, the loveable, customisable, yet entirely destructible, worms are back in force with Worms 4: Mayhem.

Features:
  • Personalise/customise your worms using a variety of hair styles, glasses, gloves, and skin colour
  • You can customise your worms weapons in an assortment of strange and wacky worm killers
  • Complete with a new story/based single player mission with unlockable rewards
