Worms for SNES

Similar to other early artillery games such as Scorched EARTH (the computer game) the game is set on a two-dimensional field. The players control a team of worms, each consisting of four members. The objective is to kill every member of the opposing team(s) within a set time limit per round. Each turn, which lasts from 45 to 100 seconds, a player may move a selected worm and use one or more of the available weapons and tools.The weapons include simple firearms like the shotgun and uzi, alongside a variety of heavy weapons such as the bazooka (the default selection), Cluster grenades and airstrikes. The game also includes a number of `secret` weapons (available through cheat codes on options screens or `weapon drops` during the game) such as the Banana Bomb and exploding SHEEP, for which the series has become Famous.Also available are various tools such as the `drill`, `blowtorch` and `girders` - often used to add protection, adding additional strategy elements. The `ninja rope`, `bungee` and `teleport` are also available for greater movement across the playing field.
