  • Summary: 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' armourury - 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.

  1. One of the best turn-based strategy games on the market. The single player mode is not so glorious, but with friends the game is a real blast. [Sept. 05]
  2. If there’s any huge issue with Worms 4: Mayhem, it’s that there’s no massive leap into uncharted ground here.
  3. Not a great game, but it is a good one.
  4. The gameplay itself is still in relatively good health, and with a good deal of thought and tweaking could be as enjoyable as it ever was, but if Worms is to once again be a post-pub game of choice, it needs to regain its sense of humour.

    From playing the demo, this instalment appears to significantly improve on Worm 3D in many aspects including graphics and fun! The end of July can't come soon enough! Expand

    First I played the demo, and because I liked the game so much, I bought the full version. It's a fun game, but it didn't took long before I played an other game. Expand

    Continues the 3d world worms series very well and the customisations on some of the worms are truely hilarious unfortunatly this title gets boring fast and once you complete the story mode and the somewhat unchallenging challenges there really isnt much else to do. Expand
