Oil Worm

Game Description: Guide your Oil Worm over the hills and through the scary forest.

How to Play Oil Worm:

• The game instructions are available in English and one other language. I apologize for not knowing what the second language is.
• If you speak English, click the 'English' button to go to the next game screen.
• If this is your first time playing Oil Worm, click the 'New Game' button to begin.
• If you have played Oil Worm before here on Richard's Game Reviews, and you have a saved game, you may continue playing your saved game by clicking the 'Continue' button, or you may begin a new game by clicking the 'Clear Data' button located at the lower left corner of the game screen.
• Like all worms your Oil Worm will crawl on the ground most of the time. Crawling is automatic. The only movement you control is when to make your Oil Worm jump.
• There are two ways to make your worm jump: You can use your Up arrow. Or, you can click your left mouse button as long as your mouse pointer remains within the game screen.
• Your goal is to guide your oil worm through the forest while collecting stars and avoiding obstacles.
• The obstacles to avoid are: falling into an orange abyss, running into fire, and running into a ghost.
• You must jump over each orange abyss and each fire.
• To avoid the ghosts you can either jump over them, or since they float, you can sometimes go under them. You will encounter the ghosts on levels 6 and 7.
• Each time you fail to avoid an obstacle you lose oil from your oil can.
• You will add oil to your oil can when your worm runs into one of the small oil cans scattered throughout the game.
• Oil will also be added to your can when you successfully complete each level.
• Watch your oil can level displayed at the upper left corner of the game screen. If your oil can runs dry... the game ends! As long as you have oil remaining in your can the game continues.
• Earn 2 points for collecting silver stars. Earn 5 points for collecting gold stars.
• Earn bonus points for completing a level quickly.
• Earn enough points to reach the next level before you run out of oil.
• Oil Worm has 7 fun levels of play.
• After you finish a level you may click the 'Quit' button to save your Oil Worm game. Then, later when you come back to Richard's Game Reviews, just click the 'Continue' button to resume your saved game.

Oil Worm Game Options:

• The game sounds may be turned on or off by clicking the microphone icon located at the upper right corner of the game screen.
• You may pause the game by clicking the pause button located near the upper right corner of the game screen, just to the left of the microphone icon.

Oil Worm Playing Tips:

• When you see a bubble try to land on it. Your worm will bounce from bubble to bubble and will not fall into the abyss. This is especially important when there is a very wide abyss. The only thing you need to do is land on that first bubble. The rest of the bounces will happen automatically.

Richard's Rating: 3 out of 5.

Comments: I really like Oil Worm. Yes, it is rather easy to get through all 7 levels. But, it is so fun watching that worm bounce on those bubbles!
