4. The Concrete Donkey - Worms

Fielding powerful weapons that at first seem silly is kind of Worms’s gimmick. It’s so players will get an unwelcome shock when they laugh at a ‘Holy Hand Grenade’ or ‘Super Sheep’, only to then find that such comedic props are capable of offing their entire team.

No such wacky weapon is as devastating as The Concrete Donkey, and just the thought of its use changes the way you approach a game of Worms. Never group your worms together in any kind of vertical formation – The Concrete Donkey plunges out of the sky and through all terrain, carving a neat line through an entire area before sinking into the sea. If your worms aren’t killed by the impact of the donkey itself, they’ll surely find themselves plummeting down into Davey Jones’s Locker.

Other Worms weapons tend to have drawbacks to using them, and can potentially harm your own teammates if not used carefully. The Concrete Donkey doesn’t, however, and is pretty much guaranteed to wipe out the majority of your opposition with ease.
