Worm combat arenas

This cluster covers browser and desktop games built around worm-controlled combat, including side-scrolling deathmatches, turn-based artillery, and dot-eating arena battles. The dated history before the index start includes only 3 entries, so the cluster's timeline shape is too thin to read—it either predates the index or most members are undated. Traction leaders, all with 0 stars, are Nibbles, Worm.io - Snake & Worm IO Game, and OpenLieroX.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 4 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
