Editorial Review

Worms: Armageddon is one of those weird titles that, despite its numerous flaws, still keeps us coming back for another round. The premise is extremely simple: use your four worms to bombard your opponent's four worms using a variety of heavy weaponry until no enemies are left standing to fire back. The execution is a little more complicated, as actually hitting targets requires accurately gauging the wind, as well as applying just the right amount of power to your shot. Of course, you'll also benefit from some good old-fashioned luck.

Due to the inferior processing power of the Game Boy Color platform, this version of Worms: Armageddon does sacrifice some of the features found in the game on other systems. Most notably, the weapons are nowhere near as varied as those found on the Nintendo 64 and PlayStation versions. The good news is that there is a lot of instant gratification to be found in this game. Each match is relatively brief since a sudden death mode kicks in after awhile. In this mode, all remaining worms have their health reduced to the point where a poorly timed sneeze will cause them to expire. This isn't the sort of title you can play for hours on end, but it's perfect for a 10-minute gaming fix. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

• Skilled shots are extremely satisfying
• Need only 1 Game Boy Color for a 2-player game

Cons:

• Bland weapons
• Small screen size hurts gameplay

5.0 out of 5 stars THE CUTE, FUN, WAR-TIME GAME OF WORMS, December 26, 1999

This review is from: Worms Armageddon (Video Game)

This game is based on little army type worms that walk around a 2-D world and try to destroy the other team of Worms. It is a turn based game and the worms have cute little remarks when they attack, get hit, die and go to WORM heavan and more. This is a very fun game filled with funny sounds and sights. The game is full of replay value and will never get boring. WARNING! THIS GAME IS VERY ADDICTING, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EVER PUT IT DOWN!

If you have ever played Lemmings (who hasn't?) and more importantly, ENJOYED, Lemmings you will love this game. Although not as good as it's N64 and PC brothers, Worms GBC is still great! Over 14 weapons, two players (on same Game Boy), 54 Levels, and up to 4 worms on a team. It is GREAT! What more could Game Boy ask for?

5.0 out of 5 stars WORM ACTION!, February 29, 2000

I have to admit with the other critics, that worms armageddon is a load of fun and has replay value. Your every attack will always be different. And the little remarks makes ya laugh. It's a cool and fun strategic game of war, but in a funny way. I recommend this fun time war action game to anyone who loves strategy. Your worms do pretty much everything. They do flips and careful aiming with your cross hair targeting. And they're loads of weapons to choose from. And one more thing, your worms can fly. Can ya believe it? Check this title out. It's worth what ya pay for.
