"It's a lot of fun and the worms' winning formula is still there."
"As we all know, classic old 2D games don't always translate well to next-gen
consoles...Worms though, that could work, couldn't it? The answer to that is, yes it could work.
In fact it's working pretty well already, thank you very much."
"Excellent multiplayer battle."
"In multiplayer, this will almost certainly be a hit."
"It's great fun."

"...we were pleasantly surprised. The game is as addictive as ever and plays just the way
we remember."
"The multiplayer is of course, superb."
"The turn-based team battler has a place in every gamer's heart and we can happily say
that this latest incarnation in the series is not going to break any of those blood-pumping
organs."

"The thing that surprised us about playing the game is how much it feels like Worms.
Other games often lose something in the translation, but not Worms."
"All the classic charm of the Worms series is still there."
"It's certainly eye-opening to see one of the longest-running game series ever in 3D but
it works, and it works just as well as it did in two dimensions."
"Long-term fans can rest easy, knowing their game remains just as fun and newcomers can
get all excited by a new game that still feels like a classic."

"...one of those understated games that's almost impossible to stop
playing."
"The best news is that Team 17 have pretty much kept the classic and well-loved gameplay
intact with the only major change being the extra dimension."
"So, after a few dodgy versions, we finally have a new Worms game that's worthy of the
name."

"Every part of the action now looks amazing."
"Worms 3D is the perfect party game and is best when four players are competing - the
tension and hatred levels are incredible as alliances are built and destroyed."
"Worms 3D looks brilliant fun and after the shock of the added third dimension dies
you'll discover this is still the game we all know and love."
"It's easy, simplistic and just so much fun to play."
"Looking like a real blast."
"Mad party fun for up to four players."

games, but from a 3D perspective."

"As the world struggles to convert successful 2D
franchises for modern consoles, Team 17 seems to have
effortlessly bridged this gap. Without question the best dimensional leap in video gaming to
date. This is Worms. This is 3D. Magic"

"The leap from 2D to 3D is an onerous one for any established franchise...
Worms 3D
looks to have made the jump with aplomb, while retaining the classic feel of the
original"

"Incidentally we've been playing Team17's latest incessantly all weekend, and you can
expect our impressions once we manage to tear ourselves away from it long
enough"
"It's just so damn addictive....
Instant and massive appeal"

"The only important fact to take home is this: Worms 3D may well be in possession of a
little extra dimension, but it retains the feel and flavour of the 2D series. It's success with
established fans is assured"

"Thankfully, what we already love about Worms 3D is no doubt the one thing that fans of
the series are dying to hear - that, after half an hour of play, you almost forget that you're
playing in a 3D environment and that you're just playing Worms, good, old, horribly addictive
Worms"
