Crates spawn every turn, and the race is on to collect as many as possible before sudden death, when you can no longer select your worm, the water starts rising, and all the worms are poisoned.

two teams on a dense random enclosed map.

Often just called Mole, as it has nothing to do with the rope-based Shopper scheme. Worms are spawned in small holes inside a solid map, and must use Moles and Blowtorches to dig tunnels and collect weapon crates. Can also be played with Jetpacks, Parachutes, or Bungees. Wall to Wall (or WxW, where "x" is the number of walls) requires you to touch all of the marked walls on the map before firing your weapon. Roper uses a more open map, but a shorter timer. Advanced players can do all this with incredible speed. Each turn, you must use the rope to navigate a complex custom map, collect a weapon crate, fire a weapon, and hide. Using the varying wind to bend Bazooka shots and setting the right Grenade fuse are key tactics. Teams are locked into position on opposite sides on the map, and only have the titular weapons and a few utilities at their disposal. Some special rules apply.Ĭommonly shortened to BnG, this is Worms in its most simple form. Where you place your worms is key, as is moving efficiently. Among the most popular are:ĭeathmatch with a short time limit and few weapons. Over the years, the Worms community has conceived of many different schemes with special rules. This is just how normal deathmatch works, though.

The team with the last worm standing wins. When a worm runs out of health, it blows itself up. Each turn, you have a set amount of time to select a worm, move, jump, collect crates, fire a weapon, or use a utility. Worms are placed either manually or randomly across the terrain.
