What is Creeper World 2: Anniversary Edition?

This side-view, 2D strategy game is set in the 14th millennium. Across its levels, you excavate terrain for technology and crystals, then use weapons, gravity repulsors, and rifts to hold back a flowing enemy and a mechanical foe as humanity fights for survival.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy digging terrain to create defensive chokepoints
  • +you like real-time strategy with tower defense elements
  • +you want later missions that test your planning

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer top-down strategy to a side-view battlefield
  • −you dislike sharp jumps in difficulty between missions

What players say
