Hedgewars, it's a Blast! This is the funniest and most addictive game you'll ever play - hilarious fun that you can enjoy anywhere, anytime. Hedgewars is a turn based strategy game but the real buzz is from watching the devastation caused by those pesky hedgehogs with those fantastic weapons - sneaky little blighters with a bad attitude!

Good game, active community
This game is already very good and playable and it has an active community so its going to continue getting better. The boys really enjoy it!
The AI is the best I've ever seen in this type of game
Overall a great game, and the AI is the best part of it. Much better than other games of this type.
With the addition of several
With the addition of several new game scripts, there are more ways to play than ever. For me, this game never gets old.
Hedgewars need more contribution
+1 developer
A variety choices of options and scripts let the game highly customable.
I wonder why the players generally have a Russian background, why is it?
If you liked original Worms
If you liked original Worms this one is a must play, IMO. Nice graphics (some screenshots here are outdated), lots of weapons/hats/themes/maps, random map generator. It still lacks some features of original game, but it is actively developed and polished (on the other hand, original game lacks some features Hedgewars do have). The only weak point is already mentioned AI (in fact, the main problem is that it uses only small amount of weapons; also, when firing a gun it [almost] never misses). However, there are always enough people online to play with.
As a Worms fan, I'll give it 9/10.
A worms clone
A fairly good worms clone. Similar to Wormux (http://www.lgdb.org/game/wormux), but IMO hedgewars is slightly better. This game is best played against humans, against AI is boring.
