🍄 What Is Shroom and Gloom?
Shroom and Gloom is a dark, atmospheric, first-person roguelike where players battle through eerie, hand-drawn dungeons teeming with monstrous mushrooms. But the real hook? It’s a double-deckbuilder — two decks, two systems, endless possibilities.
- Combat Deck: Build brutal card combos to roast, slash, and skewer your fungal foes.
- Explore Deck: Modify and evolve cards, discover new gear, and navigate through the twisted underground.
With a focus on infinite growth, cards can be upgraded and mutated into game-breaking abominations. Whether you’re transforming humble beginnings into high-damage finishers or turning rare cards into superweapons, the deckbuilding in Shroom and Gloom rewards creativity and bold strategies.
🔥 Fight, Feed, and Feast
Forget blocking. In Shroom and Gloom, you don’t just defend — you devour. Roast your enemies to restore health, or throw them in a pot to cook up powerful stat-boosting soups. It’s survival by seasoning in the weirdest way possible.
This blend of card tactics and dungeon-crawling is matched by a surreal art style, mixing hand-drawn characters with immersive 3D environments to build a game world unlike anything else.
🕳️ What’s in the Demo?
The newly released demo lets players explore 26 handcrafted tunnels, take on a gauntlet of spore-infested enemies, and battle biome bosses. You’ll encounter powerful Foresight cards that shape how each run unfolds and begin unlocking combos tied to three unique playstyles.
This early slice gives a strong taste of what’s to come, setting the tone for a full release packed with hundreds of cards, deep meta-progression, and a sprawling network of fungal caverns.
👾 Made with Mold and Passion
Team Lazerbeam, the indie team behind this mushroomy madness, has a long history of DIY passion projects — from Teenage Blob to Wrestling With Emotions. Shroom and Gloom is their biggest and boldest work yet, and every frame oozes with handmade personality and punk energy.
They’ve made it clear: this is only the beginning. With the community’s help, Shroom and Gloom is set to grow — or rot — into something unforgettable.
💾 Wishlist It Now, Play It Today
The game is coming to Steam Early Access later this year, but you can get your spores in the door today. Grab the demo, hack your way into the gloom, and help shape what’s shaping up to be one of the most unique deckbuilders of the year.
