- 1
Choose your character
Funguys Swarm starts with four characters: Ersa, Fuzzbug, X-olotl, and Chimpy. Each has a unique weapon set and elemental affinity. Ersa is best for beginners thanks to her Freeze crowd control. Fuzzbug scales with Beast-element upgrades. Try them all to find your preferred playstyle.
- 2
Master the elements
There are seven elements: Beast, Water, Sky, Night, Nature, Earth, and Fire. Each element has distinct skills and mutation paths. The key to success is combining skills that share the same trigger type — dash skills, weapon attack skills, or cooldown skills all amplify each other when stacked.
- 3
Navigate the Forest Sanctuary
Between arena runs you return to the Forest Sanctuary. Here you permanently upgrade weapons and skills, equip pets, and unlock Treelings. Use the Shroom Shop and Starpath quests to earn new relics and abilities. Sanctuary upgrades persist across all future runs.
- 4
Conquer the arenas
Each arena has unique biomes and enemy compositions. Carrot Farm and Frozen Pond are the first arenas, followed by Lava Jungle and Egglosseum. The final arena Hellscape awaits after completing the game. Pay attention to boss phases and use Freeze or Shock effects to control enemies.
- 5
Defeat the Fire King
The Fire King is the final boss of Hellscape, the last arena. Use Forest Strength upgrades earned from previous arenas to improve your survival odds. Combine Earth and Water skills for maximum crowd control and sustained damage. Recommended Treelings: Slo Moe, Dashy, and Macho.
