### 2/5 — Ne fonctionne pas sur MacBook M3pro

*2025-01-25*

Fonctionne sur iPad mais sur Macbook l’image est tronquée

### 2/5 — Great game hit with terrible bug

*2024-07-31, version 2.6*

Worms has always been a great game. But this one is unbelievable frustrating. The double click jump back works fine but then occasionally when you press one click it double click anyway often to the detriment of your game. 

It seems like such a basic glitch that could be repaired and if you could, it could be a great game. I find it so incredibly fury, especially when you are quite advanced in the levels. Every little movement makes a difference. It feels like the game cheats because you are doing well at the final hurdle the glitch send you into the water!

Please sort that to control out as it is causing your game and your reviews damage

### 1/5 — Game crashes

*2023-10-24, version 2.6*

So writers of game, you charge for download but I have seen no responses or no updates to prevent crashes that most reviews are highlighting.
Great game but do not download people until you see responses from owners of platform highlighting fixes are put in place and responses from users it’s true. Disappointing

### 1/5 — BAD

*2023-10-19, version 2.6*

constantly crashes. controls usually lead to missteps. bad aiming mechanics mean CPU can get wild direct hits from across the map while you’re just guessing and praying

### 1/5 — M1 Air 2020

*2023-10-10*

Naja, wurde zwar nicht für MacOS überprüft aber laut Kombatibilitätsliste sind Macs mit M1 Chip kompatibel. 
Warum die Auflösung schrecklich und nicht spielbar ist, erschließt sich mir nicht. Einstellungen sieht man aufgrund der kleinen Fenstergröße nicht, sodass es unspielbar ist. Selbst 1,99€ sind da zu viel. 
Erstattung des Geldes wäre hier die einzig richtige Entscheidung, nicht wahr liebe Entwickler?

### 1/5 — Bad team17

*2023-07-23*

I have the whole collection of worms on mobile, 1, 2, 3, 4 and the last mobile, I paid to play online none of them work online, I have the game on ps4 and it doesn't work online either, only in world ranking mode does it work on ps4, the other modes don't work online!!! on cell phones there is no such option to play online world ranking and it does not work online at all the server does not work in any game, this company team17 is a joke I have been a player for years since the 1 worms on pc where there was speech in portuguese you did not even put that on the mobile, I paid to play and I feel without the right to play online for a relaxation of the team that left the game aside, nonsense!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t play multiplayer online

*2023-06-23, version 2.6*

You can’t play online multiplayer

### 2/5 — It’s okay

*2023-04-10, version 2.6*

The game is a okay game, not the best. First of all, the game is such a small screen, and I barely see anything. Second, there should be directions on how to play. But the game looks nice.

### 2/5 — Bluetooth ne fonctionne pas

*2022-12-11*

Ce n’est pas normal pour une application payante de proposer un mode Bluetooth qui ne fonctionne pas.

### 4/5 — Great, nostalgic game

*2022-09-02, version 2.6*

This is a great recreation of the original, with loads of replay potential. Whilst I’ve seen occasional glitches, for about 95% of the time it plays fine for me. There were a couple of levels on the challenge games that were unplayable due to crashes, so I skipped them and that’s what cost this game a star. That, and the occasional problem where I’ll tap to jump forward and my worm will backflip into some water, or vice versa. That’s a bit annoying. But overall a great bit of 90s nostalgia.

### 2/5 — Häufige Abstürze

*2022-08-29*

Das Spiel macht wirklich Spaß, aber es stürzt nach einiger Spielzeit in einer Runde zu häufig ab. Bitte beheben sie dieses Problem mit einem Update, denn ich liebe dieses Spiel seit ich es früher gespielt habe sehr und möchte es ohne Probleme einwandfrei genießen.

### 3/5 — Great game but it crashes a lot

*2022-04-13, version 2.6*

I played this game years ago all the time and I just recently installed it again on my iPhone 12. It plays for a few challenges but then it’ll crash and exit the game making it impossible to play any further.. I’ve tried to contact the developer but it says ‘error 404’.. be great to get this issue fixed

### 2/5 — Great idea but ruined by a bug

*2022-03-08, version 2.6*

I was really pleased to see this on the App Store as I used to love this on PC, sadly it’s ruined by a catastrophic bug.

A few of the controls could be better but that’s forgivable given the overall quality of the game, what’s unforgivable though is the that the game glitches, crashes and quits at exactly the same point, always during the computers turn. Sadly this makes the game unplayable as you can’t progress beyond a certain point at the game. 

I expect active glitch fixes and updates for a paid app that’s clearly making the developer money..

### 2/5 — Good game but don’t buy

*2022-01-29, version 2.6*

Love this game but every time I’m trying to play on level 45 it crashes every time without fail and it has been like this for years. They obviously don’t want to fix the issue so if you are looking to buy this don’t

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas

*2022-01-10*

Je viens de demander le remboursement. Le jeu ne fonctionne pas sur mon iphone xs

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2021-11-14, version 2.6*

I bought this app thinking it would actually work but I should’ve read the reviews first because the game doesn’t even work and crashes constantly.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2026-05-09, version 2.6*

Hasn’t got the worms vibe from back in the day !

Controls do not work so you will be left frustrated. Not good at all

### 1/5 — Faaaaaaaaaaaaaah

*2026-04-29, version 2.6*

This is just a knockoff version of the original game, I’m stating it for one I actually wanted this is technically a scam

### 1/5 — BUG

*2025-12-29*

Au défi numéro 41, il y a systématiquement un but mettant fin à la partie sans qu’on puisse la finir…

### 1/5 — Doesn’t fill screen on iPad

*2025-11-10, version 2.6*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — This is trash	- it wont work in a Mac Studio

*2025-04-17, version 2.6*

It seems to be made to be used in a iPhone ? Cellphones are to make phone calls and computers to work and game. I have a huge monitor why would anyone play with a tiny screen in a cellphone ? also when I click to contact support I get an error 404 in their website

### 1/5 — If you cancel Game Center the app keeps crashing

*2025-02-19, version 2.6*

The title says it all, I can’t play this game at all and it says it’s still compatible with my phone and the current iOS I have installed.

### 1/5 — First, finish it and then ask for payment for it

*2024-11-12, version 2.6*

couldn't connect to the bluetooth game no matter what we tried

### 1/5 — Injouable

*2024-10-22*

Impossible de jouer de façon fluide le jeu est mal fait mais pourtant très simple, heureusement qu’il ne coûte que 2€ parce qu’il n’en vaut pas plus

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-09-18, version 2.6*

Game is nothing like my childhood terrible to do anything on it

### 1/5 — Random shutdown

*2024-04-11, version 2.6*

I’ve been stuck on level 41 of challenges for months now because the game will randomly quit on me.  Even when I try to continue my progress after a restart of the app, it will quit continuously and not allow me to proceed.

### 5/5 — Total Wormage is back

*2024-08-08, version 2.6*

Great game, it’s a good port of open warfare!

### 5/5 — Great but...

*2023-01-13, version 2.6*

Yeah it’s awesome but it crashes on Single Player Challenge 45 during the computer’s 2nd turn. That doesn’t matter because you can just skip it but it’s a bit annoying because it would be nice to be able to complete the entire thing. 

Otherwise the same awesome works we know and love.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2022-09-14*

Super jeux qui rappelle des souvenirs mais le stage DÉFI 41 ne peux jamais être terminé, le jeu se ferme tout seul au bout de quelques minutes et il est donc impossible à terminer.
Si un correctif pouvait être fait ce serait parfait

### 5/5 — A classic game, recoded for iOS at an affordable price.

*2022-04-29, version 2.6*

I remember enjoying Worms when Windows 95 was the newest operating system around. I’m so pleased Team17 have taken the time to recode it to work on iOS. Inevitably there are a few bugs still, but what do you expect for less than £1. Great game!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2021-05-23, version 2.6*

Your a worm and your in a battle

### 5/5 — No sound on IPad

*2020-04-02, version 2.6*

Had no problems and love it :)

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-10-20, version 2.6*

It is great but the weird thing is that while I can create my teams I can’t create my own style like worms 2 for iOS overall great

### 5/5 — Poops

*2019-07-05, version 2.6*

Hi hello hello hi hello hey hey hi hi hello hello hi hello hey hey hi hi hello hello hi hello hey hey hi hi hello hello hi hello hey hey yhi hi yetey y dis is da best ting a ever boughty boi lol xdxd

### 5/5 — Worms upgrade

*2019-06-03, version 2.6*

Up to a 5 star since 11 Dec 16
All fixed at long last. Thanks team 17

Still my favourite app but I can't see much improvement. I still lose my guys into the drink when I accidentally touch the screen. Same old backgrounds and voices on 'quick game'. The enemy don't seem any smarter. 
Really it's the same as it was before.  But still brilliant for all that.

Update : Constantly crashing since iOS4     Suggest don't buy the app until upgraded.

Update #2. Thanks for update iOS4. Works great now.

Update #3 whoops. Spoke too soon. Still crashes as bad as before.

Update#4 Much better since update 21/8. Less lagging, no crashes, faster loading, smoother game-play. Best yet. 
Note: I restored my iPhone. Better after that even before the update.
Whoops. Too early. Freezing screens re-occurring. I've had it with this now. I'm off to find another game where problems can be resolved.
One last comment. 
I've just got iPhone 4. Worms is great on this. Smooth and stable. Also great on iPad. 
My advice after months of trying.... Don't buy worms unless you have one of these platforms.  Bye.

Not for the first time I regret downloading the 'upgrade' it is now jerky and unresponsive. What a stuff-up. Can't you guys ever get it right?

Upgrade Sep 14. Much better screen size. Still my most played game. 

Don't download upgrade till they fix problems guys.

Update August 2012. It appears the team hasn't made enough out of Worms. What a rip-off.
Update June 2019. I’ve got to get a life!
Dropping out regularly on iPhone 10. Get a few more games if I reload it.

### 5/5 — Worms iPhone

*2019-04-11*

Excellent ce jeu est super pour 2€29, allez-y foncez ! Mais j’aimerais le retélécharger sur un autre téléphone mais le problème c’est que se n’est pas le même compte Apple donc j’aimerais qu’il soit gratuit pendant un moment ou sortir une démo du jeu mais surtout amusez-vous bien :)
