This article has existed for years, yet the subject thereof appears to be too non-notable. Something like this could be redirected to Worms (series) or simply deleted. I have seen a related article called Hedgewars that suffered a similar fate by being deleted several times before eventually being salted. See also this discussion.

• Delete: Absence of WP:VG/SE sources. Google doesn't pop up anything in open source media either. --Izno (talk) 14:40, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment The article lists Linux Format magazine (link to archive.org is broken) and there should be a short review of the Amiga version in the Amiga Future magazine (issue 61; database entry only, may check later). This is too thin coverage for a stand-alone article, but may be sufficient for a redirect (assuming there is a plausible redirect-target). Pavlor (talk) 10:31, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edit: It is Amiga Future, No 61, July/August 2006, p. 37 (full page review: [1]). Another RS I found [2] (short article on idnes.cz). There may be more of this kind in Linux related media (eg. like this one on root.cz [3]). Pavlor (talk) 17:03, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it can be merged into Worms (series), saying that there exist Worms-clones. I have heard that Hedgewars was lucky enough to be covered by two reputable sources, the magazine Komputer Świat and the mainstream newspaper Die Welt. Lucky for an FOSS, but not terribly so for a game. FreeMediaKid! 19:21, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
