''Writhe'' is a game about shooting gigantic South-East Asian worms.
Wait, let us start over.
''Writhe'' is an indie FirstPersonShooter / survival game hybrid created by the indie game company, CTRL Studios.
Set in an alternate version of Thailand, a mutation strain in the native Sago worm population have resulted in the worms growing to giant-size, and infesting parts of the country including Chatuchak, Muang Borang, Bangkok and other major provinces. Elite mercenaries called "exterminators", armed to the teeth with worm-destroying weapons, are hired to take care of the Sago worm threat in a series of grub-infested arenas.

!! Grab your guns and paint the floor with GRUBJUICE!
* AscendedToCarnivorism: One reason why sago worms are named such is because they're herbivores who feeds on parts of the sago palm trees, which South East Asia has an abundance of. But after the mutation that turns them giant-sized, the worms now feasts on flesh.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: Featuring a species somewhat lesser-known to the West, anyways, the South East-Asian sago worm, most of them larger than humans due to a science experiment GoneHorriblyWrong.
* BugWar: Albeit one where the human side are paid mercenaries killing for sport, and usually operates alone.
* TheCityNarrows: There's a level set in the slums of downtown Bangkok, but now it's devoid of life and infested with oversized worms.
* DevouredByTheHorde: Lose all your health against the worms or get yourself hopelessly outnumbered and outflanked, and you'll be treated to a cutscene of miltiple worms ripping you apart.
* TheDogBitesBack: In a way - [[https://healthguide.ng/health-benefits-sago-worms/ sago worms]] are a rich source of food in most of South East Asia, including East Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand (where the game is set) and other parts; now that the worms are giant-sized, ''humans'' are on the menu.
* DownIntheDumps: One of the many arenas is a massive landfill, containing wrecked vehicles and car crushers.
* EndlessGame: You just keep killing worms - increasing in size and numbers as the game goes on - until you're overwhelmed.
* ExcusePlot: There are giant worms infesting a deserted city, and you're tasked with eliminating all of them. No further questions asked.
* FeaturelessProtagonist: All the exterminators, who spends the game in full-body armor, face-concealing helmets, and doesn;t reveal his or her face at any point.
* GunsAkimbo: The default equipment for all exterminators, a machine-gun and PlasmaCannon combo. Which could be upgraded by killing more worms.
* MookMaker: Sago worm pods, flower-like protrusions usually found on walls or the ground, which will spawn extra worms regularly.
* SandWorm: The largest, GiantMook-variety of sago worm monsters definitely counts under these, with many of them tunneling out of the ground to chomp you up.
