This knowledge base is an attempt to gather and organise information about how the game works, on the inside, as well as any other useful (or useless) facts about the game. So far, most of this information is about [http://wa.team17.com/ Worms:Armageddon], arguably the most successful title in the Worms series.

Welcome to the Worms Knowledge Base!

This knowledge base is an attempt to gather and organise information about the Worms series of games developed by Team17. Specifically, we focus on the 2D games up to the second generation. That is, all the games from the original Worms up to Worms World Party. See Chronology for a timeline of historical events.

Here we hope to gather information about not only gameplay and customization of these Worms games, but also technicalities on how the games work on the inside. We hope you will enjoy reading this wiki, and eventually contribute!
