At its core, Worms 3 is still the same fun gameplay found in all the previous incarnations of the Worms franchise. However, Worms 3 has added two new gameplay elements that increase the amount of strategy in the game, squads and cards. Squads gives individual worms different advantages/disadvantages such as speed or increased damage and you can choose from the various worms to form your team. Cards give you boosts that you can play during your turn such as extra health or weapons.
The upgrades are also not tied to in-app-purchases. You cannot buy yourself the best upgrades and thus the game does not punish you for not buying upgrades.

The cards are available for purchase through in game coins that are earned during gameplay, which is a bit of a relief that they are not available through in app purchases.
Cons

Con Paid upfront game that also contains in-app-purchases
For what is an already paid upfront game at $4.99 it also includes in-app-purchases that range from $0.99 - $6.49 per item. Luckily though the purchases are only for cosmetics, which means there is no pay-to-win mechanics here.
