Game Description
The explosive action, quirky humor, and award-winning gameplay of the Worms franchise makes its handheld debut in Worms: Open Warfare. The first portable Worms title brings a return to classic 2D, turn-based play and, of course, plenty of things to blow-up! Your arsenal includes bazookas, homing missiles, grenades, banana bouncing bombs of death, and even exploding sheep. Your path of destruction rages through a seemingly unending number of randomly generated environments in six themes. Single players can also take on a conniving AI enemy in Deathmatch Challenge Mode. Up to four friends can play on one handheld in hot seat mode, while four units can link up for wireless multiplayer.
