The Worms Wiki is a wiki dedicated to the Worms series, which are video games starring worms. These games are mostly developed by Team17, while there are some exceptions.
Worms is a turn-based strategy game, where the player should take down the enemy worms by using the available arsenal. The weapons vary from the common Bazooka and the Grenade, to the most extraordinary weapons like the Holy Hand Grenade and the Super Sheep.

Worms was the first in the series of artillery games developed by Team17 and released in 1995. Though initially only available for the Amiga, it was later ported to many other systems.
The game was originally created by Andy Davidson as an entry for a Blitz BASIC programming competition run by the Amiga Format magazine, a cut-down version of the programming language having been covermounted previously. The game at this stage was called Total Wormage (possibly in reference to Total Carnage) and it did not win the competition. Davidson sent the game to several publishers with no success. He then took the game to the European Computer Trade Show, where Team17 had a stand. Team17 made an offer on-the-spot to develop and publish the game.
