Review: Worms Crazy Golf

Not so Crazy Golf

The Latest installment for Worms is Warms Crazy Golf. It looked actually pretty fun on the videos and on the preview pictures, but the reality is a different one.

Do you have to stand there?: This happen's more than one time.

You learn the basics in this game pretty fast and you can easily become a top golfer, in worm a edition of course. The game’s career mode is pretty big actually and you’ll have 18 holes to play on, in four different worlds. You start with a basic golfer and play your way up the rank, so you can buy new balls, golf clubs and so on. In between holes, you something get the opportunity to take part in something that is called skill shot challenge. The point here is for example to kill as many sheep as possible (yes the weapons from original Worms walk around on the boards) It works well to get a break from the other maps, but it isn’t too much to brag about.

Ooops: If not timed correctly, this it what happens!

The game’s modes are many, but so boring if you play it more than fifteen minutes. It’s fun to have the animals from past Worms in the game, but they shouldn’t make as many frustrating situations as they make. If standing right by a sheep, you actually have to use three shots to kill the sheep, before you can proceed on through the map. Then you most likely would have used up your chances to make a par, so you will not go through to the next map. Par is needed to proceed further in the game. The graphics and sound is classic Worms and was good one time. It sometimes feel like time have stood still and i personally would have liked to see an upgrade here.

At least: If not interrupted by any crazy animals, a possible scenario is under par.

Gamescore

Worms Crazy Golf (2011)

Graphics: The typical Worms graphics in good old 2D style. It really isn’t that bad, but far from good. Looks older than it really is. 5/10

Audio: You can still hear a kamikaze here and there and that’s fun. Also good background music and clearly on the Britannia level, where you certainly are in England. 8/10

Gameplay: Starts good when you have a lot to stumble through. After a while you understand that the game only got one lane and that lane is basic golfing. Would have been a lot more fun if the maps was more unlike each other. More stuff could also been added, the things you get for victories and coins feels just like game adds. 3/10

Controls: It’s easy to golf in Worms Crazy Golf, that’s one thing for sure. Something’s are pretty difficult to manage though, for example spinning the ball with the mouse. In addition are the shots sometimes hard to place and you will end up shooting a total different place, when you tried to hit another spot. 6/10

Overall Score: Worms Crazy Golf is fun for a while and it’s good to see that the worms still got it. They only got it for sometime though. You will be ripping your hair out of your head when you hit a sheep the third time you try to shoot past it. This happened to me a lot! So it was pretty frustrating. It’s worth a try for the multiplayer fun maybe, but clearly not for the single player. It would be a short fun before you get bored. 5/10
