Worms: Revolution for PC, PS3 and X360 is another installment in a series of turn-based strategy games featuring the titular worms armed to the teeth. The game makes references to the series' initial installments and contrary to several previous 3D Worms games, offers an experience based on classic patterns - Revolution is played from a side view. The game was developed by Team 17.

Mechanics

Again, the player takes part in spectacular encounters between teams comprised of worms with hostile attitudes. Following the pattern of the previous installments, the gameplay is turn-based here. The player has a limited amount of time to move a particular worm and perform an offensive action against the worms belonging to the rival team.

Worms: Revolution for PC, PS3 and X360 offers many different weapons and tools of destruction. Worms make use of different firearms, rocket launchers and grenades. This installment does not lack such classics as the Holy Hand Grenade or Super Sheep as well. A wide set of weapons is complemented by regular tools, such as rope, parachute or blow torch. Several new kinds of weaponry were added in Revolution, such as telekinesis, water pistol or Boggy-B.

Worms Game Series

A humorous series of turn-based strategies with logical and arcade elements, starring the titular worms. The series is developed by the Team17 Digital development studio. The father of the Worms series is British game designer Andy Davidson. The first installment of the series was released in 1994 for personal computers (Amiga, PC and Mac) and fifth-generation consoles (PlayStation, Mega Drive and SNES). The title was considered an extremely successful combination of Cannon Fodder and Lemmings, thanks to which it very quickly gained great popularity among gamers. Team17 Digital almost immediately began work on expansions and a full-fledged sequel. In total, over the course of almost 30 years, we got more than 18 main games, as well as a number of spin-offs and re-releases. The series got its own battle royale mode, golf or pinball.

  • Visuals: Many users find the 3D graphics to be a significant improvement over earlier titles, offering vibrant environments and smooth animations.

The main cons of the game

  • Graphics Issues on PC: Some players criticize the graphics, particularly on PC, describing them as dull and unsophisticated compared to previous titles.

  • Steeper Learning Curve: The introduction of classes and new mechanics may alienate casual players who preferred the simplicity of earlier entries.
  • Lack of Content: Some reviews mention a lack of customization options and a limited single-player campaign, which is seen as underwhelming compared to other games in the series.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • Map Editor: Several users express disappointment over the absence of a map editor, which would allow for greater creativity and customization.
  • Expanded Team Size: Players feel that the ability to have more than four worms in a team would enhance the gameplay experience, as seen in earlier installments of the series.
  • More Varied Campaign Content: The single-player campaign is criticized for being lackluster and not as engaging as campaigns in previous titles.
  • Better Interface and Performance: Users report issues with the interface and map generation speed, suggesting that these aspects could be improved for a smoother experience.

Summary

  • Overall, while "Worms: Revolution" has its share of innovations and maintains the fun spirit of the franchise, it also faces criticism for its graphics, multiplayer limitations, and certain gameplay elements that may not resonate with all players.
