You can now play Worms on Facebook

Worms is now available on Facebook. That's right — those tiny, squeaky-voiced soldiers and all manner of explosive artillery are waiting for your command on the social network most of us visit every day.

Players can participate in weekly challenges, compete on leaderboards, collect achievements, and more. They can also combat a friend on two different islands (or create their own custom battlefield), using 19 weapons chosen from the series' arsenal to date, and customize their worms with one of 40 hats.

Worms is a game that continues to show up, without fail, every few years — since 1995. That's pretty astonishing.
