As shown by the title of the game, the infamous quarrelsome Worms are squirming for the first time in full 3D. The goal of the game has not changed from its predecessors: the objective is still to crush, annihilate and put into oblivion the worm team(s) of the enemy using conventional and wacky weapons of destruction. About all the features of its original 2D ancestors are also present, including random wind and a fully destructible landscape.
Not all the weapons that were previously available have made the cut into the 3-dimensional realm, but Worms 3D comes with a selective set of new weaponry of its own, such as the Lottery Strike or the Gas Grenade. Hot seat, LAN and online multiplayer modes are also available, and the Wormopedia and Wormpot features from Worms World Party have been transferred to the series' 3D debut.
