Press release:
Team Lazerbeam and Devolver Digital are moldy with joy to announce that double-deck-building dungeon crawler Shroom and Gloom is available now for €14.99 on Steam Early Access.
Descend into the fungus-infected, hand-drawn depths of the freakiest dungeons you’ve ever seen in this unique roguelike, drawing from hundreds of cards across two distinct decks – Combat and Explore – to battle grotesque mushroomy monstrosities.
Every enemy you encounter is edible, every attack is infinitely upgradeable, and every run is an opportunity for unprecedented levels of card-based chaos.
FUNGAL FEATURES
Use the Explore deck to reveal, search, break, unlock, ignite, feed, and fix as you head even deeper into the game’s dark, dangerous, and oddly musty dungeons.
Use the Combat deck to hack, slash, roast, and eat the myco-monstrosities that stand between you and the mysterious underground realm known as The Gloom.
Hand-drawn art collides with rich 3D spaces, dragging you screaming into a surreal, visually striking world of mushrooms and madness.
Grow and modify your cards infinitely, transforming low level starting cards into powerful attacks, or rare cards into game-breaking superweapons.
Skewer, season, and roast fallen fungal enemies, eating them to restore health or tossing them into a pot and brewing up game-changing soups.
Hundreds of cards, deep meta progression, and scores of unique enemies spread across a dense network of caves and tunnels.
In this first Early Access release, players will find 2 separate paths (dungeons) to reach The Gloom – each with entirely unique card pools – 5 playable characters, and a whole bunch of quests to unlock new stuff. But this is just the beginning: as Early Access development progresses, more cards, enemies, dungeons, and a lot more besides will be added to the game.
You can experience Shroom and Gloom’s imaginative take on dungeon-crawling and deck-building now on Steam Early Access.
