Gameplay[]
The game plays via an isometric third person perspective with fully rendered 3D graphics and destructible environments. The main objective is to murder a certain number civilians (referred to as worms) in a given area while avoiding/killing authorities (referred to as "Human Shields"). In the course of this, the Antagonist must perform executions on downed civilians/authorities to restore his health. When the kill quota has been reached, the level exit will be unlocked.
In addition, there are side quests throughout the map where the player can earn "respawn tokens" which work in the same manner as extra lives. These revolve around massacring specific places (such as a coffee shop or house party), assassinating a particular NPC (such as a politician), destroying a particular landmark/item, or running people over with a vehicle.
