Great game! Unobtrusive ads, slickest UI I've ever seen on mobile, great controls (difficult to master but that's part of the challenge - the different unlocked cars have different handling too) It made me so nostalgic for Dune with the desert, sand worms and even thumpers (the lure powerup)! I actually started reading the book again...

The Best This is one of the best mobile games I have ever played! The cars handle amazingly. But you should probobly tell them that you are driving on sans not tarmac in the tutorial. Just one thing I think you should add, FIRST PERSON VEIW!!! That would be awesome! And is the forklift just an Easter egg from your other games? Cause I don't really see how it's better than the other cars that we already earned...

Beginners experience I'm on the 10 mission. The game is entertaining I ended up playing over an hour. From my experience its not very difficult to get 3 stars. What is difficult and could be the reason for many of these complaints is beating your old scores. The worms block the quickest route on many occasions and to actual control your vehicle perfectly is very difficult. I would like to see a leaderboard to compare my records. Its an addictive game, but it does require a bit of luck to achieve a impressive score.

AVOID GAME!! Game is great, love the game, LOVE it, controls suck -don't bother playing this game until the devs actually fix the steering, read the reviews from others, it's not fixed, steering sucks!!!! Game itself is awesome but you can't play it! Please please please make the turning ratio tuneable! I changed it in settings but still doesn't allow you to tone down the turns. This makes the game difficult and less fun as I try to turn then suddenly I'm in a 360 circle. If I could not turn so hard, then i could play it properly and enjoy it. And before you answer that is tuneable in the settings (like other comments from other users), already tried it on ALL settings so I suggest trying it yourself

Great concept. Need improvements like a zoom out option for there is no 1st person view in driving, I hate surprises. I literally kept on losing in round 5 or so, tried really hard but to no luck. Turns out there's a mute option on music, damn!!! That option was really helpful devs. RIP Music%%%%%. Kept finishing in one try after that.

Solid game. Needs more levels though, as of now there's only 20 and though the gameplay mechanics are simple I played the first 10 levels without realizing that you can use powerups (probably needs a little 'How-to-play and what's on the screen' section for dumbshits like me), the game feels fresh with the overall 'sand steering' physics; First 14 levels are easy but once you reach level 15, the game starts to get more challenging and fun. Only problem I've faced so far is that my achievements are not being recognized by play games if I earn it offline. I loved the Deathworm concept.

Great game A game doesn't suck because it's hard for you haters there's plenty of abc games. Has a nice drift feel and you have to remember it's sand not tarmac. Tricky to master but once you do makes for some entertaining out-monuvering. To the devs keep up the great work :)

Halloe 618 November 10, 2016

So fun I love it and the steering is great. It makes it more fun. If something like that was chasing YOU, WOULD YOU BE DRIVING STRAIGHT OR ZIG-ZAGGING? These people complaining just don't know how to play games. Keep up the good work.

Mohammed Damene May 26, 2017

Wow!! This game is SICK!! Why everybody is complaining about the control? I find it interesting, actually it's the reason why I like the game... It's difficult to control that's what makes it so fun. My salutations for the makers you've done a great job. Some suggestions: could you please add some weapons that can be purchased with points, you know.. the game needs points. It could be points for doing great escapes, awesome jumps and spins...

vaspiov beluga May 12, 2017

It's a very entertaining game however after a certain point it's near impossible to finish levels. The first level I had trouble with was 10 the worms can drastically speed up and slow down and if one hits you there are probably 3 others ready to finish you. It's a solid game but it's hard to finish

Brandon Bolton January 25, 2017

Vest short. Biggest complaint. The times for some of them are a little over the top but I guess that's what makes it a challenge so not alot to do about it. Really just add more levels and trying to make it more rewarding. Last car was funny but not worth.

Alex Young November 8, 2016

I like it, but minor quibbles detract from the fun The controls seriously need tightening - the amount of oversteer is annoying (almost) to the point of quitting, no reverse and no indication or labels on the big red buttons (I thought they were radar indicators for the numbers of worms nearby - but no, they are a actually a boost and a decoy?)

vasilis giannogloudis February 26, 2017

Over all the graphics and gameplay idea are great for such a game but the controls aren't smooth and easy to get a grab on. the idea of steering left and right and the camera being from up top doesn't work with any game.the camera must be locked behind the racing car in order to work.pls create an option thanks

Praneeth Y November 13, 2016

Controls The steering is so freaking wonky!!!! Just a tap makes the vehicle drift!! Either add an option to decrease sensitivity or just overhaul the steering!!!! Will change the rating once the changes are implemented. Edit: found the option to change the sensitivity. But it isn't that much of a help. The controls are still not good.

Devm Games SE November 12, 2016

Check the settings panel in the main menu. There you can change the steering sensitivity.

Philoneous Maximus December 19, 2016

Darn fun for a minute. Disagree with all negative feedback I read Only issue I had was the a.I. learning curve. Gave in at level 9. It's wholly possible im just old and stink at offroad style driving games. Overall worth the install. Thx

Muhammed Moodley January 15, 2017

Simplicity at its finest! Cudoes to the team that put this game together, it is really well done ! Steering works perfectly. Its so simplistic in design, yet so well put together ... graphics are good. Gameplay is really fun ... sometimes you're even on the edge of your seat trying to finish a mission getting to the extraction zone, escaping from gigantic worms... I just want to say thanks to the design and programing team!

Chase Ross November 30, 2016

Awesome but have some questions. I absolutly love this game but I have some questions. Could you please add some health packs through out the levels becuase I keep having to revive or restart. Also could you please make the worms a little less agressive becuase when my car flips when I hit them I have no chance of getting away. So please fix these things and I will give it 5 stars.

Jammy Dude December 13, 2016

It's a good game but on level 15 the red worms are just too fast. I can get the first bit of data and then I get gang banged and I just loose every life because they are too fast! I have tried using my abilities and I have tried stopping on safe areas but I just don't know how it is possible!! Please make this level a bit easier.

Keshav Viswanath May 19, 2017

No need to buy anything. Just survive and finish the level to move on. Simple enough right? Not simple enough though. Some of the levels are frustrating and damn near impossible!

Ric Stocks November 27, 2016

Good but needs a little work OK I do enjoy this game but it's infuriating. If my vehicle is not on the sand the worms should not be able to track me....! Come on coders can't be too hard to sort. Would be a higher score if not for this

Bryston Perry January 28, 2017

Very great game. To me it's a little unfair if one of the works hits you and get you to flip in the air and you can't do anything than another worm gets and it continues. But all around it is one of the best games that I have played in a long time.

Singh Mahendra January 30, 2017

This gane is good in everything but..when your car hit by 1 monster than you shoud reduce one chance and start the car from distace from monters.... Otherwise monsters continuesly hit the car and you lose another 3 chances also at the same time.

Toluwani Oluwafemi December 3, 2016

Challenging! This game is great, fluid controls and nice graphics. For those complaining about steering and fast worms, refine your skills. It'd be a shame if they made it any less challenging. I just passed all twenty levels, my only question is: how is it that the forklift isn't faster than the other cars? And, how about a new edition with weapons?

Ethan goodridge December 14, 2016

Done and the last vehicle is... WTF I finished the game and i was so excited to see the last vehicle abd as soon as i saw it i was all like WTF is that. And u wanna know what it is? Its a FKING FORKLIFT it ruined the game so i gave it 3 stars.

Luc-Angelo Sean Nepomuceno January 4, 2017

It'll release your inner anger. It's great actually though my patience's cracking. I got mind fatigue because of the worms. But if you're fine being crushed by worms and you can't even do a thing to kill then. Arrrggghhh!!! Download ang play this game.

Jonathan Soyosa January 1, 2017

Tsk! the game itself is good but the steering is ******* annoying!!! i can't escape from the worms because when i press the screen it will suddenly turn 180 degrees or more then the worm will catch me! Overall its just ok!

Sunil Parekh February 24, 2017

The physics is wrong. If one worm attacks you its basically over because it takes the car about 3 hours to recover again and then they all bite you. Graphics is good but the game play is more than frustrating. Sort it out.

Mike L May 12, 2017

No story, no satisfaction from doing nameless levels and to what end? Add more to this game and it can be great. I.E. Adding civilians to be saved such as VIP scientists who are researching the worms so a final boss battle can take place...

roadyard sanchez January 25, 2017

its a good game. just beat the game for 1 day last stage 20. last vehicle forklift .. exept for head on collision if worm left behind new worms just pops up in front..

Monica Mix November 20, 2016

Could be much better Every time I go 2next level or retry,it goes out of the game.I have to go back in from the beginning....weird.And the steering is super hard.This game has value but,needs alil help tho.

Siren_Atlantica November 22, 2016

Great game I see some people are complaining about the steering mechanics, but i think they just add to the game and have actually saved me and allowed for some sweet drifts into the goal on multiple occasions, if you do change please leave an option to keep old steering.

Marcus MG November 25, 2016

Its good Its great with all the challenging stuff and all but the Red Worms are damn hard to evade easily,but good game nonetheless. I don't find any difficulty with the controls by the way but try to tweak it for the others okay?

Beau Villalobos November 11, 2016

Need improvement Fun game, fun concept. Too many advertisements, and if you mess up once, you cant get control of your car. Also flips the screen every now and then.

Bozander 654 May 19, 2017

It would be a great game if it didn't have this one problem. If yo get hit by one worm when several are chasing you, you start bouncing and rolling and you have no control. When that happens you have no chance to escape the other worms that are after you and you're just done.

STEPHEN OLONDE ONYANGO June 22, 2017

The game is nice loved it... but why not give us weapons like stun guns to paralyze the worms for a few seconds so that we get away Love the game Your worms are freaking fast Our cars are slow I've played lyk 20times to win a single level Upgrade with with weapons pliz

Charles Jewell December 6, 2016

Great game To all the people complaining about the controls. You obviously don't get it. You are on sand driving frantically to get away from sand worms. The controls adds to the whole feel of the game.

Uriel Brambila April 14, 2017

This game would be so much better if the cars had like a mounted on muchingun so it could kill off the sworms of worms and still do all the missions. But the game is pretty cool.

Paul Thomas May 26, 2017

Have you tried drag left and right to steer with lift thumb off the screen to brake? Nice graphics otherwise, control just needs a little work.

James Bond May 5, 2017

Wish this was the kinda game that had more expansion and upgrade abilities. Graphics and gameplay are awesome. Just wish it was a much bigger game. Also, gets really hard after stage 13

Jordan Prine May 10, 2017

Not difficult, just bad controls. Should be able to control the vehicle's speed, reverse, can't do either. Most of the "challenge" in the gameplay is based around the random spawn locations for the worms, and the fact that one touch from a worm can end your run, as you get thrown across the map, and while your vehicle is trying to return to an upright position, 3 more worms come and finish you off. I've beaten all the levels, so it's not challenging, it's actually too easy, just broken.
