How to Play

Game Overview

So Worms: Fill All the Tiles is one of those puzzle games that sounds simple until you actually try it. You control this little worm on a grid of colored tiles, and the goal is to slither over every single one without missing any. The twist is that you can't cross your own body or go back over tiles you've already eaten, so it's basically a maze where you're creating the walls as you move. The visual style is clean and colorful, almost like a children's drawing come to life -- bright greens, blues, and reds on a black background. It has this chill, almost hypnotic vibe while you're planning your route, but that can flip to frustration fast when you realize you've painted yourself into a corner. There are 80 levels, and they start out feeling like a gentle brain teaser before ramping up into proper head-scratchers. What makes it click is the wormholes -- you can use these little portals to teleport across the board, which adds a layer of strategy about when to use them and how to sequence your path. It feels a lot like those old snake games but flipped into a puzzle genre. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes logic puzzles or maze games, especially if you enjoy that moment of satisfaction when a tricky level finally clicks. It's not a game you binge for hours, but it's perfect for picking up when you've got ten minutes to kill.

About Worms - Fill in all the cells

So you're a worm, right? A hungry little guy with a mission to eat every colored tile on a grid. That's it. That's the whole game. But it's way harder than it sounds. Each level gives you a board with tiles that change color after you slither over them--some start red, some blue, some green--and you need to cover every single one before you can leave. If you hit your own tail or run out of space to move, you're dead and have to restart. The controls are simple: you swipe or drag to steer your worm around. Your hands just need to point where you want to go, but your brain's doing all the real work planning routes. The early levels like "First Meal" or "Tiny Garden" are small, with maybe a dozen tiles and no obstacles. You can brute force them by just wiggling around. But by level 15, things get nasty. There are wormholes that teleport you to another part of the board, which sounds cool until you realize you have to calculate exactly when to jump in or you'll leave a gap. Later levels introduce ice tiles that make you slide uncontrollably, and spikes that kill you instantly if you touch them. My favorite mechanic is the color-locked doors--you have to eat a specific number of red tiles before the red door opens, but you can't just eat all the reds first because you need to leave some for the path back. The difficulty sneaks up on you. Level 30, "Labyrinth of Gluttony," took me forty minutes. Level 50 has enemies--little bugs that crawl around and reset tiles you already ate if they touch them. That's when you start using the rewind feature, which lets you undo moves one at a time. It's a lifesaver but costs you score on the star rating. The satisfying moment is when you finish a complex level with zero mistakes--your worm curls into a perfect spiral and the whole board flashes. There are 80 levels total, grouped into worlds with names like "The Slippery Slopes" and "The Twisted Tunnels." No upgrades or power-ups, just your brain and the grid. Some levels feel impossible until you notice a trick--like a wormhole that leads to a hidden section you didn't see at first. The game gives you hints after three failures, but they're vague like "Maybe try a different starting direction." It's frustrating and wonderful.

Tips & Tricks

The first few levels are easy enough that you might not bother planning ahead. Don't fall for that -- by world three, one wrong move leaves you stuck with a single tile left and no way to reach it. Always scan the whole board before making your first crawl. Wormholes are not just shortcuts; they reset your movement options. If you enter a wormhole at the wrong angle, you might pop out facing a wall with nowhere to go. I wasted a dozen retries before I realized you can pause and undo your last move. That's a lifesaver on the trickier puzzles. Corners are your biggest enemy. If you paint yourself into a corner literally, that's game over unless you have a wormhole nearby. So leave yourself an escape route on every turn. Sometimes the best move is to loop around the edge first rather than charging into the middle. Another thing: some tiles are traps that look like normal dots but actually block you if you touch them twice. The game never tells you this, but you'll figure it out after your worm explodes for no reason. Finally, don't rush. Taking a few seconds to trace a potential path in your head saves way more time than restarting. Patience really pays off here.
