    One of those titles that gives the PSP it's bad name. The controls, level-design, and overall gameplay are just poorly designed. At no point did I ever have any fun with it. Admittedly this style of gameplay has never appealed to me. I've experienced numerous versions of this game on various free-to-play flash game websites. Unfortunately this PSP version brings nothing new or interestingOne of those titles that gives the PSP it's bad name. The controls, level-design, and overall gameplay are just poorly designed.

    A good starting point for new players, and close to being a classic handheld Worms experience, Worms: Battle Islands also feels like a fifteen year old game with some new tweaks.

    Personally, we love Team17's game, but the concept is starting to grate a little now. [Issue#201, p.99]
