  2. Worms

    JAN 20

    Worms

    Worms is a classic Team17 turn-based strategy game, where you and a team of worms must wriggle for position and prove who has the biggest arsenal, and yes, I'm including flying sheep and bazookas that even Rambo would be proud of!  The iconic game featured on every platform under the sun and incredibly started life in a teenager's bedroom. A chance opportunity then changed the gaming landscape forever! Hear all about the game and its development and also how the game made Adrian's work experience so memorable... This podcast episode is dedicated to Martyn Brown who sadly passed away just after this episode was recorded. Martyn was the co-founder of Team17 and a true gentleman. Fancy discussing this podcast?
