Worms World Party is an artillery strategy game. It was developed by Team17 as the seventh game in the Worms series, and was released in 2001. It was the last 2D Worms game before the series' three year stint in 3D, starting with Worms 3D. There is a plan to make Worms Armageddon and Worms World Party cross-compatible when Worms Armageddon reaches version 4.0. Since the development of new Armageddon patches is quite slow it could take quite a long time until that happens.
