The next installment of the legendary Worms series, this time directed exclusively at mobile devices. The game offers the proven mechanics of the series in the classic 2.5 D binding. What is new is the system of robotic classes and the introduction of elements of card games to the game. Players can collect strategic cards, and by exposing them at the beginning or end of their turn, they can influence the situation on the board.
Worms 3, released on AND and iOS, is the next installment of the popular Team 17 series, prepared this time with mobile users in mind. Unlike the fully-fledged third part of the series, Worms 3D released on PC and sixth-generation consoles, Worms 3 offers a classic 2.5D graphics referring to the older games from this series.
Mechanics
In terms of mechanics, Worms 3 doesn't introduce any changes, continuing to focus on the crazy fights of the 4-person teams. The authors have prepared an extensive campaign for a single player, consisting of 27 missions played in many different sceneries (including four completely new ones: beach, spooky, farm and sewers). Players have at their disposal four classes of fully modifiable worms: Heavy, Scientist, Scout and Soldier, as well as a whole range of weapons. Among them, we can find iconic weapons known from previous versions of the series (e.g. Old Lady, Homing Pigeon), as well as brand new gadgets: Nora's Virus and Canned Heat.
One of the biggest novelties of Worms 3 is the introduction of card game elements. While playing, players can create their own deck from 41 different strategy cards, divided into 3 groups: gold, silver and bronze. We get cards from the prizes obtained during the game. By putting cards at the beginning or end of a turn, players can influence the situation on the battlefield in a variety of ways.
Technical aspects
Worms 3 offers various game modes. In addition to the classic single-player campaign, there is also a special Body Count mode, which is a Worms' variation of the survival mode. The game also allows for asynchronous multiplayer competition in Forts and Deathmatch modes.
Technical aspects
Worms 3 offers new control system available here via a virtual D-pad, which is an alternative to the classic touch model.
