🏯 Creep infestation

Creep infestation

A demonic creep infestation is spreading across Japan. It has already metastasized to multiple locations on Shikoku island. Demons are emerging from the creep's hives and tunnels. Fight back, assault the creep cluster, and defeat its heart before the creep swallows all.

Creep heart

The creep heart at the center of a cluster sustains the creep. Creep, hives, and tunnels will regenerate until the heart is destroyed. Destroying the heart permanently cleanses the creep cluster from the island.
