This marks the start of the Fungi Era when Mushroom Men start their Wii and DS invasion today. Rise of the Fungi for the DS and The Spore Wars for the Wii are two distinct games yet their storylines are connected with each other.

The two games were first seen in this year’s E3 and since then I’ve been waiting for its official release. Like stated in a previous article (Mushroom Men Invade E3), the games are about fungus humanoids and their universe.

Rise of the Fungi for the DS is a side scroller and tells about the early history of the Mushroom Men universe. The Spore Wars for the Wii would be a 3D adventure game where you get to play as Pax and try to end the war between two mushroom factions.

I’ll try to get a copy of the game and write a full review as soon as I can. For now check out Mushroom Men’s official web site here.
