The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report frustration with the frequency and length of ads, often stating that they encounter ads after every game or action, which detracts from the overall experience. Additionally, several users who paid for an ad-free experience still report seeing ads, leading to claims of misleading practices by the developers. Overall, while some players appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, the general consensus is that the ad load is excessive and significantly hampers enjoyment of the game.
“The gameplay is fun, they've updated the events so now you have more time to unlock the items required for in-game purchases using coins earned to purchase new event skins.”
“This game is awesome and there are no ads and no lagging.”
“I love this game very much but it's better to put no ads in this game.”
“Not good game. I have many coins, but what can I do with these coins? I can't purchase any special worms. This game only demands money, and when our mobile data is on, then only advertising. I think the game developer must think about it and they should put different types of events; otherwise, I am going to delete this game as well. I will also tell my friends to delete it.”
“I love this game, but I hate the latest update. Why does it have to be a rectangle ad in the bottom middle of my phone screen? Now I can't see other worms coming from that direction, and especially, I don't know whether I succeeded in killing other worms or not, because the notification is blocked by that rectangle ad!”
“I understand that the developers have to be paid, but take Subway Surfers for example: you watch an advertisement to progress a bit faster, and that's okay. But to watch an advertisement after losing and before playing is a bit too much.”

The gameplay is generally well-received, with many players enjoying its fun mechanics, smooth controls, and appealing graphics. However, there are significant complaints about the frequency of ads, unclear level upgrade mechanics, and issues with navigation and player interactions, particularly in head-to-head scenarios. Players also express a desire for more multiplayer options and varied gameplay to enhance the overall experience.
“The gameplay is fun; they've updated the events so now you have more time to unlock the items required for in-game purchases using coins earned to purchase new event skins.”
“The gameplay is rather fun; you can play without Wi-Fi and you can battle with others.”
“The game is incredible; I play it all the time and the gameplay is very fun, and no doubt you have put a lot of effort into making this game.”
“When you die, there is an option to watch an ad, then it says it will resume your gameplay, but it restarts.”
“But the killing mechanics are beyond horrible... if you run into someone's head, you will always be the one that dies. I don't know what the deciding factor is on who lives in a headshot scenario, but given the results, I'm pretty sure most of the worms are bots.”
“Been playing this game for a while, lots of fun, but the lack of gameplay makes this game kind of repetitive; there's not much you can do in this game.”

“Full timepass game, but only one thing: the music is not good.”

“Horrible, the game was fun at first but unbelievably buggy and poorly programmed.”
“Every time I am forced to watch an ad, the game freezes, and then I have to restart the app.”

The game's story is perceived as lacking depth and engagement, with many players expressing frustration over difficult missions and a lack of clear objectives. While some enjoy the gameplay and the concept of completing missions, they feel that the absence of varied and interesting tasks makes the experience repetitive and boring. Additionally, players have noted technical issues that disrupt gameplay, further detracting from the overall narrative experience.
“I love this game so much! The story is that one day I was on the Play Store, saw this game, and started playing it. I loved it so much that when I accidentally deleted it due to storage issues, I spent the whole year of 2020 searching for it. Now that I've found it again, I'm so happy and I rate this game a 5!”
“Very interesting! I want more tasks and even more interesting missions.”
“It's a fun game! You can kill other worms, complete your missions, and you can also decorate your own worm!”
“Change the background; it is too boring and the game becomes a sleepy storytime. This needs to be fixed; otherwise, the game is fantastic.”
“Please add more missions; it's too boring to play without a goal.”
“This game is too bad because I started this game and began a mission, but some time later the game closed. This is a huge problem.”

Players express a strong emotional connection to the game, often feeling frustration and sadness when their worms die unexpectedly, especially after achieving significant size. The game's mechanics, which can lead to sudden and unfair deaths, evoke feelings of annoyance and disappointment, while the overall enjoyment of gameplay is tempered by these emotional highs and lows. Despite the challenges, many players still find the game fun and engaging, highlighting a complex emotional experience.
“Very nice game! I always enjoy playing it, and I always feel like I want to cry when my worm gets large and then dies when I didn't want it to. 🙃”
“A little input, yeah developer, for players who start over from the beginning, they should respond directly to the big worms. It makes me suddenly die when I'm at 900,000, and suddenly there are worms that just enter or respawn. It makes me a little emotional.”
“It’s a fun game, but it’s just cruel that dying by touching someone is just sad. 😥”

While many users praise its performance and graphics, noting smooth gameplay on certain devices, others report issues with controls and lag, particularly when generating new worms. Suggestions for improvement include better control responsiveness and battery optimization.
“That's an excellent worm game in both performance and graphics.”
“It's awesome with cool graphics and amazing performance.”
“Fun, casual, performance is stable.”
“Too bad... new worms are generating through my head. Poor optimization caused my worm to die 3 or 4 times when I was at a score of 400,000. Please improve your software and optimize it well.”
“Please work on your app for battery optimization.”

Players appreciate the enjoyable daily gameplay and event rewards in the game, but express frustration with the excessive grinding required for leveling up and upgrading individual stats for different skins. Many suggest simplifying the upgrade process to enhance the overall experience, while also noting the lack of a pause function as a significant drawback that disrupts gameplay during commutes.
“Overall a decent io game that you can enjoy on a daily basis, events mode and rewards make it better. I really wish the level-up requirements weren't a thing, or at least didn't require upgrading every worm's stats individually, because that would be way too much grinding for a specific skin. Instead, just tweak the pricing and apply it to all the skins so people can slowly upgrade and enjoy the perks of their power-ups on all skins!”
“I enjoy this game very much; I tend to zone out on it. My only complaint is that there is no pause function, which means I lose progress or have to shut down the game when commuting to and from work. It would be nice to be able to pause and then resume the game, as it gets very long and tedious to keep shutting down and reloading. Apart from that, great game.”
