DOS version

Worms in realtime with smooth engine and great particles/physics! Amazing fun and great for a freeware game!!!

The Good
It's like worms but realtime, the screen is devided in two parts and you play against the computer or another player. The best thing is that it is really fun with smooth scrolling and great particle/physics engine!!! Try to play with the ninja rope or the weapon called Fan. Just try to shoot a worm or beelow your feet with the Shotgun and see the blood spoiled like particles or better go to the options and choose "Reloading:0%" and choose some weapons like Big Nuke or Banana Bomb and hold down the fire key until death to see how many 2d particles and total chaos there will be!!! Amazing 2d game!!! Especially if it is freeware and so small.. It has also great sound effects! And a level editor. Great for 2 players game! There are also diferrent kind of games like "Capture the Flag" and other stuff I don't remember.. And too many weapons!

The Bad
Still only 2players support. No music yet. It crashes sometimes (freeze!) without reason.. (But I hope that there will be newer versions of Liero because the game must have some fans now, as I see that many people get in my webpage searching for Liero while most of my page is not Liero oriented..)

The Bottom Line
It's freeware, it's like worms but in realtime combat, it has great particle/physics engine and total chaos of particles!!! It's on of these freeware/shareware games which don't have the so great gfx and sound but have really funny gameplay! Amazing game for a freeware!
