We show how the multiloop amplitudes of $\Phi^3$ theory (in the worldline formulation of Schmidt and Schubert) are recovered from the N-tachyon $(h+1)$-loop amplitude in bosonic string theory in the $\alpha' \to 0$ limit, if one keeps the tachyon coupling constant fixed. In this limit the integral over string moduli space receives contributions only from those corners where the world-sheet resembles a $\Phi^3$ particle diagram. Technical issues involved are a proper choice of local world-sheet coordinates, needed to take the string amplitudes off-shell, and a formal procedure for introducing a free mass parameter $M^2$ instead of the tachyonic value $-4/\alpha'$.
