The multiplayer may well be what a lot of people, especially fans of the Worms series, are concerned about, especially since the series has always prided itself on its easy to grasp and easy to play multiplayer. The last mode is the bonus mode, but it's mostly just more challenge maps with enemies to kill, crates to collect, or worms to defend with limited resources. For example, one level requires you to kill the worm using a jetpack only, meaning you have to fly near mines in a certain order to move the enemy worm into the water. The catch here is that the context for killing them is more of a puzzle than the main game. Scattered throughout the campaign are wanted posters for worms which then allow players to access levels in the challenge mode where they are tasked with killing the worm in question.

It's not as if Worms needs a narrative, though, and the campaign offers enough challenge and levels to make it a worthwhile mode to play, taking quite a bit of time to complete and even longer if you want to do the optional objectives like killing worms with certain weapons or not losing any health. There is some loose idea of a story running through it in the sense that a cutscene comes up every once in a while with the typical Worms slapstick humour, but there isn't any narrative as such. The bulk of the content in single-player is in the campaign, though. Scores can be earned in the training levels, though, giving some incentive to play and replay them. The beauty with these is that they don't have to be completed to access other modes, so Worms veterans can simply pick up and play the game from the get-go.

The first are the training levels, although the pro training levels certainly shouldn't be taken lightly and are a challenge in themselves, tasking players with using the various mechanics in the game to collect crates or destroy targets. The single-player aspect of Worms WMD offers four modes to select from. Worms WMD seeks to go back to what made Armageddon popular while also adding its own flavours, and it does a fantastic job too. Worms as a series has been around for over 20 years, even so, ever since the release of Worms: Armageddon fans have felt like the series has gone in different and even sometimes unsatisfactory directions.
