Plan your next Mycopunk session
Our independent guide breaks down Mycopunk’s documented systems—story, combat tools, upgrade grids, co‑op play, and platform support—so you can make informed choices without relying on hidden tricks or undocumented mechanics.
01 / THE GUIDE
Narrative Mapping
Record each mission’s brief and note references to SAXON’s possible tax issues or hidden agendas. Comparing these notes across missions highlights the overarching plot and informs role‑playing decisions.
- Compare mission briefings for hints about corporate motives.
- Observe enemy designs for clues about fungal influence.
02 / THE GUIDE
Weapon‑Mod Pairing
List available mods and their effects, then pair them with your favorite weapon type. Test the combination in a low‑risk mission to see how the grid placement influences combat performance.
- Test different weapon combos in the upgrade grid.
- Watch enemy loot drops to anticipate new threats.

03 / THE GUIDE
Grid Slot Management
Before adding a new mod, count remaining grid slots. Reserve space for future upgrades you anticipate, ensuring you don’t block later, more powerful configurations.
- Prioritize mods that complement your preferred playstyle.
- Leave empty slots for future experimental combos.
04 / THE GUIDE
Co‑op Role Planning
When playing with friends, assign complementary roles—such as healer, shielded melee, or explosive specialist—based on each player’s chosen upgrades. This balances team survivability using only documented mechanics.
- Coordinate weapon choices to cover each other's weaknesses.
- Use dropship downtime to discuss mission tactics.
05 / THE GUIDE
Controller Comfort Test
Play a short session with both DualShock and DualSense controllers. Observe button placement and overall handling to decide which controller feels more natural for your combat style.
- Enable Steam Cloud to keep progress across installations.
- Experiment with both controller types for comfort.
