Worms Zone a Slithery Snake

Dart through a neon arena, boost past bigger worms, and feast on the glowing remains of anyone dumb enough to cross your path.

You're a worm. You eat glowing orbs, get longer, and try not to slam your face into another worm's body. Basic stuff, right? But then you discover the boost — space bar makes you lunge forward, burning off your own tail as fuel. That changes everything. Now you can cut off a bigger worm by forcing them to hit your side, and suddenly their entire body turns into a buffet of orbs. I once held a choke point near the edge, boosting in short bursts, and turned a 5,000-point worm into lunch in about four seconds. The sound of a thousand orbs popping at once? Pure dopamine. The real trick is learning when to boost. Boost too early and you'll shrink into a pathetic little speck that can't threaten anyone. Boost too late and you're dead. I spent my first ten rounds hugging the border, nibbling scraps, getting killed by worms named "xX_Destroyer_Xx". Then something clicked: you don't need to be the biggest to win. You just need to be the most annoying. Cut off their escape route, fake a boost to make them flinch, and let the arena's chaos do the rest. There's a light strategy layer — use the map's edge as a wall, follow behind big worms to vacuum their leftovers, and never fight in open space if you're small. The controls are dead simple, but mastering them takes real hours. I still die stupidly, and I still come back. That's the sign of a good io game.

Use the mouse to control the worm's direction and space bar to speed up it.

Tap space in short bursts rather than holding it — you'll cut people off without losing half your length.
