Worms: The Board Game

Players command teams of cartoonish soldiers across a hex-based battlefield, moving pieces, collecting supply crates, and setting up attacks. The terrain is destructible and populated with hazards like mines and oil barrels; wind and sudden-death events can change the board state midgame. Combat uses a mix of classic weapon cards and positional tactics: choose weapons, aim at opponents, and resolve effects that remove units or alter terrain. Games blend short-term luck with strategic positioning as teams try to stay alive, whittle down foes, and be the last squad standing.

This is not the best, but is a really good adaption of the video game. It catches the chaotic nature of Worms. "Whoops my worm slipped and fell into water - deadge" - "Oh the nade also hit the explosive barrel triple k!ll". Due to the short playtime the player elimination and RNG diff does not feel too bad. This game is not supposed to be a "fair" and "highly stratgetic" game.
