''Worms'' is a series of artillery tactical video games developed by British company Team17. In these games, small platoons of anthropomorphic worms battle each other across a deformable landscape with the objective being to become the sole surviving team. The games are noted for their cartoony animation and extensive use of surrealism and slapstick humour. The game, whose concept was devised by Andy Davidson, was described by the Amiga gaming press as a cross between ''Cannon Fodder'' and ''Lemmings''. It is part of a wider genre of turn-based artillery games involving projectile weapons; similar games include ''Scorched Earth'' (1991), ''Gorillas'' (1991) and ''Artillery Duel'' (1983).
