The Worm is a charmingly simple yet engaging indie title that breathes new life into a classic gameplay concept. Developed by Carlo D'Apostoli Projects and published by Strategy First, this game takes the familiar mechanics of 'Snake' and injects them with a fresh dose of procedural generation and modern twists. Players guide a growing worm through ever-changing mazes, aiming to stretch as far as possible without colliding with their own body.
