The Classic is Back

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 23, 2011

Platform For Display: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

Worms is a classic game series and Battle Island brings back the original gameplay to the Wii. If you were frustrated with Worms 3D or even A Space Oddity, worry not as this game is strictly "old school" gaming. There is not much new to this game since it's a new version of what we already love, aside from the many custom features. I find these to be more silly than interesting, and somewhat shocking since a lot of the customizations are now missing: less team voices, less hats, shorter character max for worm names, etc). Nothing to get too huffy about, but it's just odd that "Worms Special Edition" I downloaded for my Mac from the App Store still has these things. But what BATTLE ISLAND has that other versions dont (including Mac's "Special Edition") is online gameplay, which is fantastic.

Probably the biggest complaint about this game is that you are forced to use the Wii motion controller on its side. This is not a problem, just the biggest problem of the small issues (which is a good thing). I would prefer to play this game using the classic controller but instead, you are basically using an old-school NES layout. The problem with this is that the directions to move your worm AND the camera are one and the same. Difference between the intention lies if you are holding down the back button or not. I don't like this and while I am sort of used to it, it would be nice to have two different toggles and it's surprising that they didn't work this in.

This is a highly recommended game for anyone who likes the series or enjoys simple strategy games (Lemmings or Angry Birds fans must check this out!). I grew up addicted to Battle tank and Lemmings and Worms combines the two. Any complaints about this game are minimal and wont effect liking it more or less - just small issues. While you can download this for your computer and enjoy without CD loading time and with full HD graphics, you can't beat the multiplayer online option with Battle Island, which is more than worth it.

PROS:
*play online multiplayer
*classic gameplay: this is the game you love
*lots of training and random missions aside from deathmatches

CONS:
*cant connect/play with classic controller
*less game customizable options that earlier versions
*Camera movement is more annoying than it should be
*Needs a 3rd zoom option since its not full HD (compared to computer)
*Teams have a max of 4 worms instead of 5
*bad background music (not that you blast the music or anything)
*no leaves falling to show wind (a better guide than the arrows)

Worms!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 3, 2013

Worms. 2D. Awesomely fun. While maybe not as great as my rose colored vision of the originals, This has enough of a feel to keep me entertained for hours. My kids, 5 and 8, really enjoy it. May not be great at it, but hey they have a few years yet to catch up to me.

Only have a few gripes with it. Customization is kinda crap. Only get to use one item to make your worms look different. The worms you fight in the story don't seem to have that restriction. I also ran into a problem creating custom weapons. If you go through multiple versions and try to save the game, the Wii freezes. I could write this off to my Wii being pulled off the entertainment center a few times. The last thing I had a problem with was the story. Yeah worms fighting and story. Haha. No the main problem was the levels. For the most part they are pretty easy. There are a couple though, while fun, required several restarts. That is where my gripe is. I wish they would of started off easy and worked up to where I needed to keep trying again.

Worms!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 28, 2011

Platform For Display: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

This game satisfies the worms hunger for previous players, but includes way to much dialog for the guy who likes to get a short description and jump into action. Sometimes it's hard to sort out what dialog matters in playing the game because there is so much of it. But once you actually get in the game it is hours of fun. Well worth the dollar for the patient player. Worms has always been similiar to the old dos game Scorched Earth, by the way has been reborned as Scorched Earth 3d which is still freeware. Back to the game it offers great multiplayer at home or online. I would say a kid would need to be at least 7 years old to understand this game and need to be really good at reading. But for the adult it still keeps a guy happy.

PC Version is better

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 6, 2013

Platform For Display: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

[Subjective Review] I have enjoyed playing Worms Armageddon on the PC a lot! This one is good for nostalgia, but not as good when playing on the Wii probably because the details of the graphics and the weapons were the coolest part of the PC game, but they are not too visible in the Wii version when you are sitting at a distance from the TV. I have a 32" HDTV and maybe I need a bigger screen TV, but if that is true, then it means that this game is not for me because I do not want to change TVs just to play a game.

Lots of Control

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 7, 2011

Platform For Display: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

I have played worms on PS3 for awhile now and bought this so I could play it with my Wii buddies. There is a lot of customizing control with this version. I still prefer the PS3 format for it's quality picture and ease of use. Worms as a franchise though is an excellent game and I highly recommend it.

Traditional worms

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 3, 2011

Platform For Display: Nintendo WiiVerified Purchase

Echoing the other comments - this is perfect for the Wii with it's less-than-complicated graphics and gameplay. Even the rope is back though I'm not sure I'll ever be as good with it as I was on the keyboard.

Story mode is interesting and a nice change. Customizability is there if you want it but not necessary, as it should be.

Even has the ability to create your own weapons - not sure how interesting that's going to be based on my first efforts, but it gives you one new approach.

Definitely my favorite Wii game.

I grew up with Worms 2 for the PC, and was very glad to see how similar this one is to that 2D layout. Easy to learn, and fun missions, though way more fun with friends than alone. :)
