Wurm: Journey to the Center of the Earth

To this end, an underground vehicle is constructed to explore the underworld.

They call it the VZR, but the crew know it more commonly as a Wurm.

Four different Wurms have already been dispatched and mysteriously disappeared, so a fifth Wurm vehicle is ready to launch crewed by the best and the brightest.

Crew Chief Moby has been chosen to lead the mission, even though she has lost both her love and father on previous Wurm missions.

It will be up to her and the crew to figure out this mystery and rescue the other Wurm members.

There's also a matter of mysterious crystals that have been found underground...

Wurm: Journey to the Center of the Earth is a game featuring multiple sequences.

The player controls the VZR vehicle, and occasionally Captain Moby when she ventures out on foot in vertically and horizontally scrolling sequences as well as a first person battle against enemy monsters.

Players progress through 5 levels, in which the VZR-5 investigates the fate of the other VZRs.

After the completion of each level, the player gains a crystal, which will unlock additional weapons for the VZR, mentioned below.

The VZR is controlled in both a side-scrolling sequence and a top-down vertically scrolling sequence.

In the side-scrolling section, the VZR is able to change between Tank Mode and Hover Modes mode.

In the top-view section, the VZR is able to change between Hover Mode and Aerial Mode.

The Tank mode drives along the ground, firing in three directions and uses a drill to tear down obstacles.

The Hover Mode can fly around the screen, but uses fuel constantly while doing so.

Like the tank mode, It can also fire in three directions and has the drill, however the weapon can be changed to two power-ups: energy balls that fly across the screen and a wave weapon the shoots out in both directions.
