The fourth installment of the real-time strategy series again tasks the player with containing the creeper, a destructive fluidlike substance, slowly overtaking the map's surface. Creeper World 4 continues the series' gameplay and favors 3D environments with a focus on fluid dynamics over traditional 2D graphics.

I might like creeper world 3 a little better, but I think that's more because of me growing up with 3 and not 4
The replayability added by the community made maps and modes triples this game's enjoyment. Highly recommend
A really unique take on the RTS/tower defense genre. A little repetitive/slow at times, but overall an excellent experience.
The game opts for basic, functional graphics over aesthetic beauty. Its story mode is well-balanced in terms of challenge and length, with a satisfying progression and new tools and weapons introduced steadily. This installment successfully combines elements from previous games in the series with new features, including a notable addition of a 3D environment.
One of the main issues that I had with the game is that is easy to trivialize
- I mean, if you are methodical enough, sooner or later victory becomes unavoidable because once you cover the terrain with weapons enough in number and variety, it's impossible for the enemy to penetrate that zone. That renders the game a repetitive experience for some levels. However, the continuous addition of new tools and mechanics makes it interesting enough, although most of them are only needed in the latter levels of the campaign.
Creeper World 4 appeals to both series fans and new players, thanks to its mix of traditional and innovative gameplay aspects.

In my opinion, the peak of a very under appreciated RTS/Tower Defense series. I go back to this one every once and a while.
Set the creep to white and you get to simulate what it's like to be lactose intolerant
