Multiplayer games come in all shapes and sizes. Today, we’re looking at Wormax.io, which belongs to the “.io” subgenre of browser multiplayer games. If you played an .io game before, you should have a good idea of what to expect: an easy-to-join, hard-to-win battle.

The Gist of It
Wormax.io pits all players against one another. There are no teams, guilds, or clans. Team Deathmatch is non-existent; in this game, every worm plays for itself. The objective is simple: kill other worms. That’s the quickest way to grow and clear your surroundings. There’s no final winner, just a temporary leader (i.e. the longest worm). It’s like Slither.io, but with a bunch of cool bonus features.

Skilled Worms
Wormax.io equips players with Super Skills. These come in the form of Acceleration, Stop, and Ghost. Acceleration works identically to the boost feature in Slither.io—you can activate a temporary speed boost to zoom in front of other players. This allows you to attack others, at the cost of shortening your worm. The other features, Stop and Ghost, and brand-new to the .io genre. Stop allows you to completely halt for up to 5 seconds. This is a great defensive skill, letting you avoid the Acceleration attacks from other worms. The Ghost feature makes your worm transparent, which doubles as invincibility. When you’re a ghost, you can glide through other worms without dying.

Random Abilities
Boosters are another totally new feature in Wormax.io. Five different Boosters appear randomly throughout each match. The Health power-up is self-explanatory, while others are more unique. For instance, the Toxic Booster gives your worm poisonous abilities. If you die, your worm’s remains become toxic, instead of providing healthy food to others. This sneaky feature is perfect for seeking revenge after being attacked. Another interesting Booster is Telescope, which makes the camera zoom out for one minute. This gives you a broader view of the map, which is essential for planning long-range attacks and avoiding incoming bullies.

Being Original
One of the first things I noticed when playing Wormax.io is that hardly any worms look the same. This is because worms come in a variety of colors and patterns (i.e. skins). By sharing a link on Facebook, VK, or Twitter, you can unlock over 40 free skins. Changing the look of your character is a fun way to keep the action fresh. Some of the skins look like other animals, such as cats, cows, and pigs. This also helps the gameplay feel more interesting, since you’re not slithering around a bunch of identical worms.

Designed for Action
Wormax.io doesn’t have levels. When you play a regular game, you’ll be thrust into the arena with hundreds or thousands of other players. How long you last depends on how well you slither. If you want to practice in an easier environment, you can set up a private room to share with friends. That might be easier at first, but jumping right into the action with everyone else is plenty of fun.
