Indie game developer rand publisher Upside Down Bird announced their latest game, Shroom Siege, will be coming to PC and Consoles sometime next year. The shorthand to the game is that you play a fungi that have enlisted in the mushroom militia. You achieve a win in three different ways against a bevy of opponents all trying to achieve a win the same way. The game plays a bit differently, but it honestly reminds us of Killer Queen. There will be a free Steam demo out on August 6, followed by a release later this year for PC and all three major consoles.

Shroom Siege

The fungus kingdom spreads its tendrils and controls surrounding insectoids to claim dominance. Start as a mini mushroom with the power to infect and sway the minds of mightier life forms. Show off superior shroom strategy in 4v4 multiplayer madness. Each single-screen map makes all characters and strategies visible at all times. Beyond quick reflexes and witty tactics, Shroom Siege also encourages communication and coordination. Gather friends locally or play online, forming two teams of four with cross-platform functionality. Join matchmaking alone or with a squad and test those shroom skills around the world. Strive for victory in three ways: Shrine, Shogun, and…Poop?! Master multiple mounts to outwit opposing fungi, such as the merciless Mantis, equipped with razor-sharp claws to cut down the competition. Win three of the following Victories to emerge triumphant:

  • Shrine Victory: Command Minions to collect enough small orbs to offer as sufficient tribute to surrounding shrines. Watch for danger and move quick! Minions respawn indefinitely, so going for the Shrine means playing it safe.
  • Shogun Victory: Eliminate the opposing Shogun three times. Control the mighty flying Shogun and cut down any adversary lower than them with its samurai sword. High-risk, high-reward: fatal missteps bring the other team closer to their own Shogun Victory!
  • Poop Victory: Force foes to smell the stench of defeat by mounting a Dung Beetle to slooowly roll a poopy payload to the opposite side of the map. Winners often report this as the most satisfying way to win. Losers often claim it's the most humiliating.
