The forest is on fire, and the Fire King’s flaming minions have no intention of letting it burn out anytime soon. Playing as one of the forest’s weirdest defenders, fighting back means arming up with forest-crafted weapons and unleashing some genuinely bonkers powers on wave after wave of trouble.
Funguys Swarm is a survivor-style roguelite from developer Stairway Games. Choosing from a cast of silly funguys, each with their own quirky abilities, you’ll level up, unlock new heroes, pets, skills, and even mechas, and rescue creatures to grow a Forest Sanctuary packed with permanent upgrades.
What Makes It Different?

- Take on a bigger baddie waiting at the end of every arena
A Funguy for Every Playstyle
Whether the plan is to get up close and personal or stay tactical from a distance, Funguys Swarm’s cast of characters is built to accommodate both. Each funguy brings its own quirky charm and unique set of abilities into a run, and figuring out which one clicks best with a preferred playstyle is a big part of the fun before the swarming even really begins.
The Forest Has Your Back
Runs don’t just end when a character falls. Progress carries forward through the Forest Sanctuary, a home base where creatures rescued during runs can be spent on upgrades that make future attempts genuinely more ridiculous than the last. Between stacking chaotic mid-run powers and investing in the Sanctuary between attempts, there’s a constant sense of building toward something bigger, even when a single run doesn’t go to plan.
How Long Does a Run Take?
The average run length for an individual match or run typically lasts around 10 to 20 minutes, depending on survival and whether the boss stages are reached. Completing the main game overall averages about 4 hours and 20 minutes according to community tracking.
Controller Support
Funguys Swarm features Full Controller Support for Xbox Controllers and PlayStation Controllers.
