### 5/5 — It works great even today!

*2026-07-10, version 1.07*

It works Flawlessly now! The old good Worms!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-05-23, version 1.07*

Don’t listen to the complaints. I have none

### 5/5 — Good, but Improve online game!

*2026-05-10*

Improve online game: make users set profile to, for example: "online" or "offline" and let users invite each other to play, globally, make a list of online players, and create a message that is displayed on top of the game, for example: "user is inviting you to play", since most of our friends don't play this game, connecting to facebook is irrelevant, make players invite each other globally!

### 2/5 — Bugs are ruining it for me

*2024-08-28, version 1.07*

UPDATE: Downloaded on my iPhone 14 and now the the same issue , blue loading screen appears and won’t go / despite saying signed in - don’t suppose I can finally get a refund? 

Was a great game to start but since I got to approx level 40, whenever I open the game it comes up with the loading circle for about 5 minutes before you can do anything and I can’t open any crates …. When you try it takes a long time then ‘failed to connect to server’ I’ve tried uninstalling/ re installing etc have a good internet connection there’s just no fix ? Please help ?

### 1/5 — Multiplayer funktioniert nicht

*2024-08-02*

Meine Freunde und ich haben es nur gekauft um gegenseitig zu spielen

Leider funktioniert der Multiplayer nicht mal und haben umsonst die 6€ ausgeben. Absolut unverdient das Geld wenn ich könnte würde ich es gern erstatten

### 2/5 — Problem

*2024-04-26, version 1.07*

I have been playing this game for a few weeks and have, apparently, cleared the first three sections of the main map but the next section remains locked. I have followed suggestions such as rebooting my iPad, uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing changes so, having paid for this, I am disappointed. Any suggestions from Team17 that solve this will result in a better review.

### 1/5 — Stuck on loading

*2024-04-05, version 1.07*

Was a great game to play. Ever since last update on my iPhone 15 it stays stuck on the blue loading screen. Sometimes works if I turn off wifi and cellular data.

### 1/5 — Was working fine, now constant connection issues

*2024-04-04, version 1.07*

Conveniently for Team17 connection issues occur after refund validity period.
Can’t save progress.

### 5/5 — Jogo nostálgico é otimo

*2024-01-27*

Só falta uma opção de joystick nos controles e full screen tbm… mas o jogo em si é incrível.

### 4/5 — Game is good, but multiplayer isn’t working

*2024-01-24, version 1.07*
