Worms Blast is based on shooting a coloured bazooka at various coloured blocks. If the colours match, the block is destroyed, along with all connecting blocks of the same colour. Hurrah! If the colours don't match, then the weapon colour splats all over the block you hit and those immediately surrounding it. Oops.

Blocks come in also sorts of shapes and sizes. Standard blocks are probably the only ones you've got a good mental picture of right now, so feel free to let your thoughts wander to the possibilities of Dead blocks, Bouncy blocks, Anchor blocks, and lovely Rainbow blocks.

Aside from the bazooka, there are other weapons - grenades, fused dynamite, cutting lasers and a shotgun. These can be found hidden in crates 'locked' into the landscape.

After a blast, land can become 'disconnected', causing it to shake and then fall. The period of time for which it shakes depends on the number of blocks in the falling section - although, like most of this game, there are exceptions to the rule!

So while there are these basic rules to make you feel at home, they have only been put there to be bent and twisted, and these exceptions occur mainly in the missions to keep them varied and, well, bizarre.
