There are plenty of puzzles to solve, along with numerous items to find 'n' keep. Throughout the game, you'll encounter a familiar breed of enemies, although what they're doing in Jim's head goes unexplained. The controls in EWJ3D are easy enough to handle, with the jump, duck, head-whip and gun buttons all logically spread out across the N64's controller. Once you've accepted your predicament, it's off you go. The basis of the game is to send Jim through his own brain with the goal of finding his own marbles. It seems even worms can go into comas, because that's exactly what Jimbo does. Apparently, Jim is minding his own wormy business, when a cow comes flying out of nowhere and lands on the unsuspecting dirt eater. The same "wacky" humor is implemented (apparently, cows still constitute wackiness) in all forms throughout the game, starting with the premise itself. How does it stack up to the likes of Mario 64, Sonic Adventure, and the multitudes of Crash games? Pretty well.įor such an unpretentious game, EWJ3D plays almost exactly like the original 2D iterations did, only this time, in a 3D world. What Earthworm Jim 3D is, is an old-school platformer, released into the modern age. Well, time has passed, hardware sophistication has increased, and popular gaming styles have evolved. When it was first announced that the slippery, super-suited earthworm would be making his first 3D appearance on the N64, it seemed as if this would be a title to watch for. With development having originally started not long after the last EWJ (for Saturn) was released, it seems like eons since the game was first announced. Groov-y! That's what Vis Interactive and Rockstar Games would have you believe about their newest (and much delayed) title, Earthworm Jim 3D.
