Last week, Team 17 released some screenshots from their upcoming port of Worms for the iPhone.
Worms is a turn-based game in the vein of Scorched Earth, where two teams of worms face off across various craggy battlefields, armed with a variety of weapons (bazookas, cluster grenades, air strikes, etc.), in a bid to wipe out the other team and emerge victorious with the last worm standing. The original version won rave reviews and is a highly anticipated port for the iPhone.
Team 17 has since released some actual gameplay video of the iPhone version of Worms:
We'll provide more details as we come across them.
I like how they made choosing weapons look like iPhone icons. Nice touch.
I like what I'm seeing.
Looks great. I want it now!
from what I understand, there will be no online multiplayer included in the game
Either way I'm still buying it asap!
awww. not at all? or just not at first release? either way it looks good and I'll probably get it.
Looking good. Looking forward to it. Controls seem a little weird but I'm sure they'll be nice.
All these ports need at least local Wifi play… especially given games like Worms are predominantly multiplayer.
If this ends up getting online play it deserves to sell bucketloads.
This better get online play. If not, no sale for me.
Me either sadly. I'll wait for official verdict though.
Looking good.
I like how they realize, and what many developers don't seem to get, is that you dont need "buttons" to perform actions. iPhone games should utilize gesture based actions!
Wow. I am so excited about this game. I hope it is released soon!
@mandiller: This game is a top10 candidate even without multiplayer.
Big question will be do they release it at a decent price like $2.99, or do they go for the gouge at $4.99.
for a proper game like worms you should be grateful they dont charge over 20$. and to all those whinging, i will cut off my dick and sell it on ebay if this doesnt include multiplayer
the rope is what makes worms an awesome game. On PC the rope is incredible. I also have in on PS3 and the rope cant do half of what it can on PC. It lowers the fun factor considerably. I have a feeling the iphone will be the same.
FINALLY!!!! No more iShoot! I'm not gonna take anything away from iShoot. It's a great game. But Worms is what made it happen. I can't wait. I hope it's not too expensive.
I could careless about online multiplayer. Just give it multiplayer for the single device. Playing these games "with actual people" is how it's meant to be played! Puff-puff pass….. * oh wait that's for somethin else
Bob, have you ever played worms? This will probably go for 9.99 and will be worth every cent.
This will be #1 game ever published for iPhone!!!
formal… pass that shit
Besides multiplayer it needs many many missions/training modes/history mode like in the pc's version…. with that it would be instant buy
you won't believe how long i've been thinking of sending in the idea of creating this game, WORMS….. it's the best and most addicting game i ever came across on pc and finally it's here!!! I just hope that some thought has or will go into upgrading it to multiplayer…because then and only then it would be the best competitive gaming experience!!!…….TEAM 17 2 thumbs up!!!!
Can't wait…
