James Pond 3 had mushrooms all over the place, even a mushroom boss. And moon cheese. James Pond 3 is the only game to marry mushrooms with moon cheese, noone has attempted it since.

HeXen had poisonous mushrooms that killed you if you weren't careful shooting the creepy monsters.

Giant Mushrooms are an early enemy type in Maple Story

On that note:

Now, I could have gotten a better screenshot myself, but I'm not replaying through the entire game for the Hell of it.

I want to say Trinity, but I don't know if they were giant. Size doesn't really get mentioned a lot and since there are no pictures and everything's odd anyway there's no real sense of juxtaposition between items. It's all very disorienting.

dragon quest

i haven't played temple of elemental evil but if it's missing the myconid rooms, i'll be durned.

NWN, NWN2, damn near any D&D game that involves big caves. Not just for myconids, for shriekers and purple fungus, too.

That's.. all I got right now. Sad

Hey you guys, in This Game Stars My Penis you control Swimmy's pants mushroom and it's pretty giant sized compared to the rest of the objects on the screen. It's a very happy mushroom, it's got a smiley face drawn on it.

the end level marker in Fez is a giant mushroom that shoots rainbows when you jump on it.
