About the Game

Woodworm is a grid-based puzzle game about carving bite-sized wooden sculptures. After being magically transformed into a tiny wood-eating grub, your workshop seems so much bigger - and your job will be much more challenging!

In each puzzle, you must create a specific shape by eating away sections of the wood. You will need to experiment and plan ahead to learn the intricacies of woodcarving and complete each sculpture.

This game is an expansion and re-imagining of the original PICO-8 hit WOODWORM - with updated visuals, sound, and even more puzzles!

Features:

  • Intuitive, easy-to-learn controls

  • Puzzles ranging from simple to surprisingly difficult

  • Heaps of shapes to carve and tricks to discover

  • Full controller and Steam Deck support
