The main game mode (Career mode) has your worm avatar (no, he’s not blue or from Pandora) playing through the three standard courses on offer, each one being available to play once the preceding course has been completed.

Not that they’re your standard golf courses though various objects are scattered over the multi level courses to prevent our plaid wearing golfer worms from sinking their dimpled balls into the cup (hmmm.golf parlance is littered with naughty euphemisms, isn’t it?).

Our favourite slimy pink characters have decided to leave their cosy worm holes and head for the lush pastures of the golf links. But with Worms Crazy Golf, Birdies, Eagles and Albatrosses are a worm’s best friend. Q: Do you have any plans for DLC after launch?Ī: Yes, we have the Carnival Course DLC pack, which includes the surreal and colourful (very pink!) Carnival Course (a new 18 hole golf course), a selection of new challenges, a new utility (the ‘bouncy ball’) and more customization options too.Normally, as a worm, your worst enemies would without doubt be birds. With four-player social multiplayer support, it has all the hallmarks of the “Worms” brand: the trash-talking, pressure to make the shot, terribly unhelpful ‘advice’ from your opponents, and often hilarious consequences when that risky shot that could have won the game goes terribly wrong. When taking a shot each golfer also has a selection of unlockable special utilities they can call on such as the parachute ball, the ability to reverse gravity, or the ability to slow time down to maximise the effects of top-spin or back-spin – they are pretty funny and really encourage replay of the courses in order to get better scores. It’s the absolute best of both worlds and we think it’s really good fun and very compelling. It’s neither a traditional golf game nor is it a traditional “Worms” game. Completing each hole in par or under unlocks the next one, but there’s a bunch of things standing in your way, including increasingly challenging hole design and an array of obstacles from castles that teleport your ball, cannons that shoot it across the landscape and even obstructive comedy bats! The game is based on the “Worms” gameplay mechanic of choosing shot power and trajectory, although “Worms Crazy Golf” is a completely new entity in itself. It is set across three surreal 18-hole golf courses, (plus a diverse range of skill-based challenge modes), with each hole being more like a puzzle than those found on traditional golf courses. How does the world of Worms combine with golf?Ī: Anyone expecting a straight golf game will be in for a bit of a surprise… it’s got a lot of the favourite aspects of Worms, including explosive sheep, grumpy old women, moles, magnets, mines, colourful environments and crazy chain reactions.

Fortunately, I think our instincts were proven right! Coupled with the fact that both Worms and golf are both turn-based games, it seemed pretty natural to us that the two games could be mixed together into some sort of highly entertaining cocktail! And with the fun, competitive nature of both Worms and golf gameplay, we thought it would work very well in a social multi-player setting. Q: Can you describe how the intriguing idea of combining Worms and golf came about?Ī: We started with the fact Worms is a pretty crazy and surreal game anyway, so we felt it would be ideally suited for combining with ‘crazy golf’. We’d like to introduce the game to you all by answering a few key questions:
