![]() That said, this is one gameplay addition I’m not sold on. These roles need to be bought through the in-game currency system, so players have plenty of time to get used to one role before learning another. Worms are also now able to take on ‘roles.’ A scientist worm has different capabilities compared to a soldier worm, for instance. Even though you’ll be doing much the same thing when fighting in these as you would in a normal game, it does add a nice dynamic to the game when there’s plentiful walls and things to hide behind and the ariel assaults are less effective. The other neat addition is ‘forts.’ Players can select one of these maze-like structures as their own, and then play battles through labyrinths of corridors, rather than the traditionally open environments. Though the action is exclusively in 2D the animation is far slicker and the worms have a greater variety in personality this way. The character models and environments are now constructed in lovely HD 3D. The obvious first – this is a fine looking game. There are a couple of tweaks to the formula that make this worth a look in for Worms fans, or people who haven’t played the series for a while. I’m rather surprised we didn’t have the police come knocking with noise complaints by the neighbours after one especially close session.Īll that said, it would be disingenuous to say there is absolutely nothing new about Worms Revolution. Because of this experience and heritage the finishing moments of any given level are invariably tight and victory is almost always by the thinnest of margins. It’s still laugh-out-loud funny to watch a friend accidentally bazooka himself, and the weaponry and randomised levels have been balanced to a fine edge after so many years of development practice by Team 17. Multiplayer is where this series has always been at, and even all these years later the cartoon violence of Worms over a couple of beers with mates is a perfectly enthralling way to pass an evening or weekend. in this series has been upgraded since the first game way back on the PlayStation and PC, and that means enemies that make ridiculously stupid decisions on the low levels, and are Godlike in accuracy on the higher difficulty levels. There’s online play as well as local multiplayer, which is just as well because the single player game is predictably dull. Just about everyone would have played a 2D Worms game at some stage by now, so you’ll all be familiar with the turn-based action, the arcade-like physics and the massively over-the-top weaponry. Worms Revolution is a remarkably safe but highly effective entry into the Worms franchise. No way for Team 17 to screw this up, right? In fact, those times that Team 17 have really tried to mix up the Worms formula, it’s generally fallen very flat on its face – anyone remember Worms Forts: Under Siege? So I was more than a little relieved to see that this game takes place on a traditional 2D field of battle. There is nothing revolutionary about Worms Revolution, but then again that’s not really a bad thing. They take from three to five minutes each to complete.I look at the dictionary definition of ‘revolution,’ and I have to question its application to the newest Worms game. Note that if you have not played a Worms game before, you should complete all eight of the tutorial levels so that you know how to play the game and can be efficient in the multiplayer. Press again and complete the quick tutorial level to unlock the achievement. Press and you will see the description for Training 1: Weapons. From the Main Menu select Campaign and the selector will default to a rat icon labeled Sewer at the bottom of the screen. The quickest level to complete is part of the boot camp tutorial. If you have the Mars Pack DLC, you will also unlock "Strife on Mars". At this point you will need to complete any one level to unlock "Fast Learner", "The Trooper", "One for the Money", "Upstairs Wares", and "Worm Winner". To activate the cheat code, from the Main Menu select Help & Options, scroll down to credits, then press. The boot camp tutorial, campaign and puzzles are all possible to complete immediately after the introductory tutorial due to a cheat code Team 17 (the developers) added to the game as an apology for some of the bugs that were included in the original release. The tutorial is accessed from the Main Menu by selecting Single Player, Campaign, and then selecting the rat (Sewers).
