What is Head Worms?
Head Worms is a first-person survival horror game set in an isolated mental research facility.
The player takes the role of a patient and explores indoor and outdoor areas, searches for clues, solves puzzles and riddles, and hides from hostile creatures. Challenges change frequently: a survival situation can give way to a timed puzzle, while other moments call for quick thinking under pressure. Progress involves observing monster behavior, working out puzzle solutions, and choosing when to move or hide. Puzzle time limits vary, and poor decisions can have fatal consequences.
