Holy Shroom!

Holy Shroom! is a mushroom-foraging survival game for solo play or co-op. You and a group of retired friends travel in Heniek’s old van to pick mushrooms, but it breaks down in the middle of nowhere. A local mechanic can repair it, and you need to collect and sell mushrooms to earn enough money for the repair.

Forage by day and night

During the day, you can search the quiet forest, explore and return without much trouble, but mushrooms are harder to find and the most valuable kinds are rare. At night, the forest fills with mushrooms, including the rarest and most valuable ones, giving you a chance to earn more. The forest also becomes dangerous as ghosts, monsters, mutants, aggressive animals and other strange dwellers emerge.

Survive the forest

Different creatures respond to different things: some are attracted by noise, some can be kept away with light, and with others it is safer to keep looking directly at them. Some want your mushrooms; others want your life. The longer you stay out, the more you can earn, but the greater the chance that something finds you first.

Repair the van

You sell what you collect, buy better equipment and save toward the repair. Each trip means choosing whether to return early with a smaller profit or stay until nightfall, when the forest offers its most valuable mushrooms. Your aim is to make it back with a full basket.
