An old concept it may be, but what does that matter when you're having so much bloody fun?

WWP will keep you playing for a very long time. With over 55 weapons, 40 single player missions, and a plethora of online and multiplayer deathmatch options available, WWP is a game worth investing in (especially with its incredibly low price tag).

One of the most captivating aspects of Worms is the diverse array of options available for each game, effectively making it possible that no two games of Worms are alike.

Game Revolution

An unparalleled multi-player experience for the Dreamcast, full of style, humor and balls-out, dead-on physics, and is simply one of the all-time must-have Dreamcast titles in terms of replayability, laughs, subtlety and sheer nastiness.

What we've got here is the same great Worms gameplay with a few fixes and additions that aren't exactly reliable, especially when it comes to online play.

Hot Games

An excellent buy for newbies looking for humor and gameplay depth. While it doesn’t alter the franchise’s formula, it’s still as fun and frustrating as its predecessors.

GamePro

World Party’s simple goals and humor are universal, and can easily be enjoyed worldwide—but the game’s dragging pace and frustrating gameplay will have you swearing at the screen no matter what language you speak.

DC Swirl

One of the few Titus-published franchises on DC (or any system) that's actually worth playing on gameplay attributes alone.

If you've been a fan of the series, you'll be right at home in the upgrade, but for those who are just starting out, there may not [be] enough here to interest you.

This is a great, I am always playing great for parties, and takes a while to figure out missions(especially last one.) One complaint is that the computer takes too long to make its move. If you like games with guns with not a lot of money, this game is for you!

C Money gave it a 10:
I have the PSX version - so much fun multiplayer. So much replay value. So much damn fun. I can't recommend highly enough. NINJA ROPE! (y'all wormers know what i mean)

Matt B. gave it a 10:
I recommend this game to any Dreamcast owner because the multiplayer value is very high, the game is hilarious, and the price is pretty low. It's a great game when you have a bunch of people over. One complaint, however, would be that the CPU takes a little too long on it's turn.

Big E. gave it a 10:
The most fun, simplistic game out there.

Sean D. gave it a 10:
