What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
The lowest price on record is $2.24, set in November 2015. It has been discounted 108 times in the 13 years tracked here, typically at 80 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 5 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks. It becomes a BANGER at $9.19, a level the record has reached 107 times.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is pricier than 84 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Pit People® ($19.99, scores 88) beats it on value, while it beats Worms Revolution ($14.99, scores 74).
This site sampled 569 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 14 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 84 percent of the 1,562 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 20 percent of everything written about it.
The main story runs 8.3 hours. Doing everything runs 25, 3.0 times as long.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 8.3 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say
Classic Worms action, works over the internet still for multiplayer games, and it cost me next to nothing on Steam. What's not to like? Still a very playable game with lots of neat features, fun graphics and a good sense of humour, if a little twisted :-D (FYI: am running a ten year old desktop system, with Windows 10)
adam said something really funny when we played this but i cant say because im not allowed
cool game and all but i need to spend more time with it to fully grasp its mechanics

Worms Armageddon scores 76/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/217200/worms-armageddonThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Aug 2, price as of Sep 24.
