Creep Crushers was an online game that featured the first 2.0 and 3.0 Heroes. It was released on January 7, 2011. Players had to insert the code from under the lid of a Hero 2.0 or 3.0 set into the HeroPad in order to access a version of the game where you can play the Hero in his or her chosen form. For the 3.0 Heroes, the game was labeled as Jungle Crushers.

When HeroFactory.com was updated for early 2013 content, the game was removed along with the HeroPad, the online games in 2010-2011, and most of the videos and the building instructions for the 2010-2011 sets.

Gameplay

Creep Crushers gameplay

Players had to insert the code from under the lid of a Hero 2.0 or 3.0 set into the HeroPad in order to access a version of the game where you can play the Hero in his or her chosen form. The version of the game has the set's name and then the word "Edition".

When the player enters the game, an animation presenting the Heroes in the 2.0 or 3.0 line is played. Then, the player will become able to start playing the game. The player controls a certain version of a Hero and tries to survive as several waves of "creeps" appear. The Hero has to defeat 5 waves of creeps. Various power-ups are available when you pick them up from blue floating objects that look like Hero Cores. Some objects fall from defeated creeps that give the player points. Each version of the Hero has his or her own way of attacking.

The early 2011 Editions take place in Makuhero City, with the Hero Factory in the background. The Jungle Crushers Editions take place in the jungle planet Quatros.

When the player activates three Ordeal of Fire Creep Crushers Editions, they will fight with Fire Lord after 5 waves, otherwise they will face a giant Nitroblast. In the Savage Planet Creep Crushers/Jungle Crushers version, either a giant Waspix (called "Flying Lizard" in the game) or Witch Doctor (if the players activates three Savage Planet Creep Crushers Editions) will be fought. When the player defeats the final boss, a small win scene with the selected Hero appears. If the player is defeated, a losing scene appears with the final boss triumphant.

There are four achievements in Creep Crushers. One of the achievements is where you unlock three Editions from the game. Each achievement activates one of four pieces of a tablet that has the Hero Factory symbol. Jungle Crushers does the same.
