Worm War I

Review

Worm War I for the Atari 2600 is a wild and wonderfully weird hybrid of vertical shooter and tank game, where players blast their way through waves of giant, multi-segmented worms in a post-apocalyptic cityscape. The gameplay is fast and chaotic, with obstacles, fuel management, and an endless barrage of enemies keeping things intense. The graphics are colorful and imaginative, and the scrolling playfield gives the game a nice sense of momentum. While it can get repetitive, Worm War I stands out for its originality and frantic action, making it a hidden gem in the 2600’s library of offbeat shooters.
