About This Demo

YOU BOUGHT MUSHROOMS FROM A GUY IN A TRENCHCOAT

The pizza rave was going great until you handed a stranger thirty dollars for the "greatest trip of your life". Nothing happened, so you went home.
Now you and 1-3 friends are wearing loaner bodies, and an alien named Randy is in the apartment holding a big jar and talking about your juices. He is not a monster about it. He simply has quotas.

FIRST-PERSON PARTY GAMES IN THE HOUSE

Every minigame and round is what you make it. Play it straight or only grief your opponent. You might be able to make it work. Randy gets his juices whether anybody wins or loses.

THREE GAMES IN THIS DEMO

• Monkey Bowls: Trippy bowling with a combo chain. Hit crazy combo throws with tricks like bunny hops, 360s and griefing multipliers. There are zero actual monkeys in this minigame, stop asking about them!
  
• Hot Boys: The house fills with lava and turns you all into tiny Hot Boys. Get money while shooting your opponents into the lava and staying out of it yourself.
  
• The Bathrooms: Get lost in an aesthetically cohesive but ultimately hollow and terrifying minigame. Make money on the run from Crazy Randy in a randomly built nightmare hell maze from hell with extra hell.

When the jar is full, the demo ends in a short Rumble With Randy. There will be eggs.

BRING SOMEBODY

Bad Shrooms needs at least two players and takes up to four, in local split-screen or over Steam. There is no single-player mode. Online, everyone installs the free demo, and a lobby on an older build shows as OTHER BUILD, so restart Steam to update. No friend nearby? Post your lobby in the looking for players thread in this game's Steam Discussions. Found a bug? The pinned bug thread is in the same place, or email hello@crunchrock.games with the build number from the pause screen.

EARLY ACCESS IS NEXT

The full game is targeting Early Access on October 19, 2026, with seven minigames: these three plus Randy's Gig Work, Schizo Sniper, Mecha Chameleon and Déjà Room, and a much worse Rumble With Randy. Five of the seven already run in the development build; Mecha Chameleon and Déjà Room are being built for launch. If the demo makes you laugh, wishlist Bad Shrooms and Steam tells you the day it lands.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Bad Shrooms is a comedic party game intended for adults. The premise involves two friends taking psychedelic mushrooms, which is implied and referenced rather than depicted in detail, and Zlorp himself is shown taking puffs from pipes, vapes, cigarettes, and similar devices. Gameplay includes cartoon first-person violence between players using toy-like weapons, adult humor with occasional innuendo (including household items played as suggestive gags), mild to moderate language, and in-game radio music that contains rap profanity. There is no gore, no nudity or sexual content, and no gambling.
