Yet another one of those videogame to boardgame adaptations.

I am a bit curious about how this will turn out. Worms is not a game that seems to translate well to the tabletop unless it is app assisted and/or comes with a slide ruler.

Really curious as well. Worms has a major skill component to the majority of it's gameplay. This cannot be abstracted by chance (dice, cards) in any reasonable way.

Yup, unless the game has some well thought out dexterity element i find it hard to see how it will capture the wacky feeling of the video game

That could be it. Something like Catapult Feud but Worms themed.

I played this game when I was younger and it felt like a tabletop worms-style game. I wonder if it's gameplay will be similar https://media.wizards.com/2017/dnd/dragon/D15_Clay-O-Rama.pdf

Oh! So cool so you could make your worms out of clay and start blasting!
