Is it still worth playing?

Team17's 1999 turn based strategy game for Windows, which began as an expansion to Worms 2. Teams of up to eight worms, and up to six teams, play on a destructible 2D board with cartoon humor, acting in a random sequence, one worm per turn. Worms walk and jump, and with items they can swing by rope, parachute, teleport and bungee. The arsenal is wide. Weapons are melee, projectile, explosive and airstrike types, and each team picks a special weapon that unlocks after a set number of turns. Played alone, deathmatch against the computer is a climb through 20 ranks, which unlocks weapons, items and maps. A large arsenal in which each weapon behaves differently still makes every match different today.
