Mycopunk – A Quirky, Satirical, and Engaging Game Debut from Pigeons at Play
Pigeons at Play, the developers behind Mycopunk, have aptly named their debut title. This game is an excellent choice for a quick 30-minute session, whether played solo or with friends. The humor in Mycopunk is shamelessly goofy and taps into the satirical anti-capitalist sentiment that games like Helldivers 2 and Lethal Company have popularized.
However, Mycopunk offers more than just aesthetics. Its gameplay is snappy, smooth, and creative. Despite being in Early Access, the missions vary greatly, there’s a unique upgrade system for both weapons and characters (or employees as they’re referred to in-game), and most importantly, it remains enjoyable even when played alone. Few multiplayer-focused games can maintain that level of fun as effectively as Mycopunk does.
