Mycelium: The Silent Contract

a really fun and interesting game, especially if you play with a full team. it’s not particularly scary, but there are definitely moments when it gets a bit creepy, especially when you accidentally get caught in a trap and get teleported somewhere on your own, only to run into a mime and a bunch of hostile creatures. definitely recommend it, it’s really addictive

I was not a fan of horror-like games before the Mycelium. But this game is something! The game's atmosphere is awesome. Even after 50+ hours of gameplay there are still moments that give me chills. Mechanics are interesting and fun to play with. Learning how the forest works and how to deal with it's challenges is a little bit hard but fun. I like to play in both ways: in single player and in co-op with friends. By the date I'm publishing the review the game is in early access, developed mostly by a single developer, but even now it's quite cool and definitely has a great potential! Excited to play new updates!

Actually unique co-op horror. Not another soulless extraction clone. ​Honestly, I’m so tired of generic, copy-paste co-op games, but Mycelium is a huge breath of fresh air. I’ve put over 12 hours into it so far, and it’s easily one of the best indie gems I've played recently. ​The atmosphere is just incredible. It’s genuinely creepy and gets under your skin, mostly because it doesn't rely on cheap, stupid jumpscares. The sound design and the eerie music do all the work to make you feel paranoid the entire time. ​But at the same time, playing this with friends is pure gold. One second you're trying to be all serious and stealthy, and the next, your friend randomly gets sucked into some portal or triggers complete chaos. The balance between actually being scared and just laughing at your teammates' blunders is perfect. ​Unlike most co-op games today, there’s an actual story here. The lore about this "silent contract" with the mycelium network is super interesting and unfolds slowly as you explore. Plus, the progression and upgrade systems actually give you a reason to keep doing "just one more run." ​Since it's Early Access and made by a tiny team, yeah, you will run into some bugs.…

Previews don’t do it justice, the play itself is the reward. Yes, you can die, that’s part of the horror fun. Creatures are good but as it is tweaked you may find minor hitbox issues. Creator design choice for the monsters was top notch and it is sad that many are likely to judge not knowing how good this game is. Seriously underrated!!!

Very nice game!

Fun game with friends. Really hope they add more content as atm it feels like you can get everything within the first 2-3hours of the game with nothing more to see from my experience
