Mushroom – Life Is Strange 2
Best Doggos in 2019 Video Games
Sean and Daniel’s adventure in Life Is Strange 2 didn’t get off to the best start in episode one, and it doesn’t take long before they’re on the run, away from home, and without a parent to guide them. During a stop at Bear Station, the two spot Mushroom in a basket behind the counter, but are told the prospective owner really has to be an adult.
Then things go all horribly wrong for the Diaz brothers, one thing leads to another, and the two end up bailing out of the gas station with Mushroom clutched to Daniel’s chest.
And so Mushroom joins the adventure, but not for long. Despite the cute lil’ puppa bringing a ray of sunshine to these otherwise bleak and confusing times for Daniel, nature takes its course. When hauled up in an abandoned cabin in the middle of the woods in winter, Mushroom makes an escape, only to be killed by a wild cougar.
It’s heartbreaking watching Daniel stand over the corpse of his new, cuddly best friend. A reminder of how quickly dogs can become a massive part of our lives, and the void they leave when they’re gone.
RIP Mushroom, we hardly knew ye.
