Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Super Mega Worm is a cartoony arcade game that casts players as a giant man-eating worm. While the point of the game is to devour or destroy as many people, cars, cows, and more as possible, the violence is relatively tame. The graphics mimic the 8-bit style of the earliest home entertainment systems, so nothing looks remotely realistic. Characters flee for their lives, but do so spouting text one-liners like “No! I just got a new car!”

QUALITY
Super Mega Worm doesn’t take itself the least bit seriously -- and that’s what makes it so fun. The deliberately archaic graphics and the ripped-from-a-cheesy-1950s-horror-film premise add to the kitsch factor. While technically violent -- in that you’re killing tiny people – it doesn't seem realistic. If you like the idea of being a super-ravenous, all powerful bad guy, this is the app for you.

A gruesome, scary game geared for teens.
This game is EXTREMELY violent. You kill pedestrians, they do deserve it, but it is still violent.

Awesome NES throwback, but quite violent
Everything about this game is bound to appeal to people like me who love both old-school video games and bad 60s horror movies, but it's just so much fun that everyone should at least try the Lite version. Common Sense is wrong in their review yet again, but on two accounts. The app is actually $1.99, but totally worth it. Also, while, yes, the point of the game is to eat everything/everyone in your path, and the 8-bit graphics do lessen detail, the kills can be quite bloody. The worm's teeth eventually get covered in little splotches of blood. The cartoon violence is definitely what made Apple give a 12+ to this game. But, overall, Super Mega Worm is a blast. You owe it to yourself to try out this awesome NES-style classic.
