Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I want to start by saying, if you've played the other Creeper World games and are serious about the story, the story in this one is essential to understanding more about what's going on in the series

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
If the build shipping was essential part of gameplay, this game would be so much fun - as part of campaign you could unlock new weapons/improvements you can add, allowing you to build bigger size ships and you will have to think each mission about your ship composition and how to improve your old designs.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The game offers some nice graphics and environments, although some ugly glitches here and there, it is pleasant all the same and has a really great aesthetic

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is great, and the visuals are more pleasing to the eye than the store page implies!
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
All in all, the difficulty curve is fair and while it's short it was still fun to play.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Particle Fleet: Emergence, A Creeper World Story is both a wonderful deconstruction of the core Creeper World premise and the game with the most subtitles that I've ever played.
