Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition Gameplay

Worms Armageddon is a turn-based artillery strategy game in which players control Worms and aim to eliminate all worms on the opposing team or teams. Each player takes a turn and controls one of their worms, who has access to a variety of weapons. Players have access to an arsenal of weapons, including guns, bombs, melee attacks, missiles, and even air strikes. Attacking or getting hurt ends their turn.

Worms have a certain starting health that, when depleted, causes the Worm to explode on its own and damage other Worms in the surrounding area. Worms can also die from suffocation.

Matches are played in destructible landscapes, often decorated with themed objects such as a playground with toys and park equipment, beach balls and wide-brimmed umbrellas, or barns and farming equipment.

Worms can use terrain both for cover and as a way to direct weapons at the opponent. Some levels have environmental and weather effects, such as wind that prevents air attacks, or play in indoor environments.

A big component of Worms is its customizability; Players can customize their Worms’ names, team names, flags, sound banks, and tombstones.

While most fans love Worms for its local multiplayer mode, it also has a single-player campaign.
