10 Most Unique Multiplayer Games Of All Time
4. Worms
When Worms first released in 1995, there was nothing else quite like it in all of PC gaming. Incredibly, almost 21 years later there still really isn’t.
Worms is easily classified as a strategy game, but there’s really no other strategy game quite like it. While you can certainly get a lot of mileage out of carefully planned attacks and a strong knowledge of the game’s mechanics, there is also a heavy element of randomness to the game that is supported by the whimsical cartoon violence of the aesthetics.
This is especially true of players trying to learn the game, but even when you master the unique weapons the random unit placement and chaotic nature of the combat creates moments where anything can happen.
What ultimately makes Worms so unique is its combination of instant gratification action, humor and genuine strategy. It’s the most fun you’ll ever have not understanding what just happened or what exactly you are doing.
