Face off in the ultimate Pop! battle
In the Funkoverse Strategy Game, you combine your favorite characters and go head-to-head in four exciting game scenarios. Use your characters' unique abilities to gain points and achieve victory!
Each turn, you select one of your characters and perform two actions. Each character has access to basic actions like moving and challenges as well as several unique abilities that may be performed only by spending ability tokens. Funkoverse uses an innovative "cooldown" system - the more powerful the ability, the longer it will take for the ability token to become available again - so players have to spend their ability tokens wisely. Each character in Funkoverse is unique, so players are encouraged to try out different combinations of characters and items in order to discover their favorite synergies and powerful strategies for all four game scenarios.
As of launch, the Funkoverse Strategy Game consists of four-character sets and two-character sets. Every four-character and two-character set is playable as a standalone game and comes with exclusive Funko Pop! Figures that aren't available anywhere else, a double-sided board, tokens, cards, an item, and dice. Sets may be combined with one another, allowing players the freedom to play how they like!

So, in order to save the day... :P I'd say the gameplay starts at 8:03 with the appearance of Ms Granger on the board :)

[@Quackalope]

Thank you - sorry for the slow start (I haven’t been the best at doing the time stamps recently - just trying to get more videos done!)

[@CrazyBunnyGuy]

@@Quackalope Hey, no apologies needed, I just noticed you mentioned someone in the comments section will do it, so I thought to myself, why not :) There is only one thing stopping me from getting into the funkoverse universe - miniatures' heads don't bob. The true reason, of course, is simply of financial nature - it's difficult to get a hold of anything in this god forsaken land of Croatia without paying an arm and a leg and a retina and a kidney in shipping fees. Our local stores (why plural, Kristijan, what's with the plural?) are... local. ;)

[@Quackalope]

It sucks how has it can be to get games outside of their published region :/

[@bluejaygaming401]

[@carmelorodriguez7430]

Great video. It has piqued my interest in the Funko games again. I'll have to look into them a little more. Thanks for another quality video!

[@Quackalope]

Thanks for checking it out - they have a pretty good system in place if your willing to make it messy and want a quick playing skirmish game!

[@Blutgang]

My wife and I started about a month ago having a unpluged time everyday and playing various games. As a 30 year miniatures gamer I love these funko figs and our whole family has been buying the regular figs for eachother last several years. Thanks for this entertaining play through. And yes Rick and Morty and HP are fam favs. Bravo! Sold!

[@scottylovesthings]

After covering such light fare as KDM, it’s nice to see you guys playing something much heavier. Happy new year!

[@Quackalope]

Haha - happy new year Scotty XD

[@RoscoeS]

Hey guys thanks for the play through. I saw some mistakes that do effect game play. Movement: when a wall extends over a space you can not move diagonal to that space. Visibility is obstructed also by the overextended walls. Also the Tokens you get for the Character pool they are not player specific. I know a lot of reviewers are still new to the game, but the first six pages of the rule book go over all basic and specific rules needed to play. I do agree though buying a 4pack and a 2 pack is a very good idea for a 3 on 3 character play. Drafting is also a good way to allow for more replayability.

[@Quackalope]

Hey Dragon - thank you for watching and commenting on the mistakes we made! We did catch the mistake for movement during gameplay (Jan admitted he cheated once) and we talked about line of sight but might have judged the visibility wrong in some cases. We did not realize the tokens made a shared pool - most of our plays until now had been with one miniature at a time. We are working on getting better at on camera rules - it can be a lot to manage and mistakes you might not catching in a normal gameplay don't go away on a recording! Just believe we are working on it!

[@RoscoeS]

Quackalope I’m happy to keep seeing videos on the game. And thanks for making one! Keep up the good work!

[@Quackalope]

@@RoscoeS Thanks so much :) - we have more planned for the Funko world! Stay connected.

[@ownlyjoeking1001]

A ton more rules mistakes in this too, unfortunately. -When you collect a point token it goes to the top of your cooldown track. At the 4. -A downed character can't cash in on the flag, it has to be a standing character. -Both players should obviously have the same number of items. A well produced video, and I'm glad to see coverage of the game anyway.

[@ViableBurrito]

@@ownlyjoeking1001 if you use Confundo on a player, does that mean they can't use their level 4 abilities?

[@NatanelApfel]

Batman vs Golden Girls... I can totally imagine Betty White giving Bane an ass kicking!

[@Quackalope]

Sounds like a solid mashup!

[@prosperohall9551]

Thanks for playing our game! We're glad you're enjoying it.

[@Quackalope]

For sure! Working on that strategy guide next!

[@heatrez1518]

Your portal gun shenanigans are hilarious!

[@Quackalope]

I had fun with them!

[@LordoftheBoard]

Hey so glad to see you guys covering this :) killing it friends.

[@Quackalope]

Thanks so much :) - we have a lot of plans this next year!! Hope everything is going well with you?

[@LordoftheBoard]

Same! :) yes doing well! Looking forward to the new year!

[@chasingchases6678]

You can’t start back at your opponent starting zone… if you look at the game card it reads you may choose to return one or more of the chosen characters to your starting area one is described on the card shaded in white for the white player and one is shaded and black for the black player they must go to their respective zones when capturing the flag and receiving the two points

[@marcojacinto8716]

First time I've seen your channel and I instantly Subscribed, love your camera angles and your crisp image and vibrant colours! Alot of other youtube playthroughs have static cameras or cheap video footage! This looks amazing

[@Ninjagabbo]

U guys have fun personalities after 2 mins in i had to like and sub, love the game great vid

[@DeathDong]

This was a great reference to help start my first game with more than 2 figures. It was a ton more fun IMO. Thanks a bunch!

[@BrandonGraham]

I may be mistaken, but the tokens for your characters join a shared pool which you may use for all characters. It seemed that you were specifying which token was for which ability, but I don't think you do not need to worry about that. Enjoy the freedom!

[@Quackalope]

I think you are correct XD

[@geoffreyhawley503]

Am I crazy or is each team supposed to have only one item? For one, I think that's the rules, or at least the advised set-up. And for two, it just seems fair; getting to pick that third item gave the player more choices than the other.

[@mikemaxwell5765]

yeah, items are optional...and each team gets one

[@backcourtviolationpodcast259]

I got a question will you guys buy and play with newer characters?

[@ArtisticWanderings]

I love your videos but I wish the music was only in the intro. It is too loud/distracting when others are talking.

[@Quackalope]

We have dropped the music a bit in our current videos - but it will always be a part of our channel. For me, music ties me into the video and keeps me engaged - it removes the silence you get in gameplay videos.

[@ArtisticWanderings]

Quackalope I love the music choices. I understand why your keeping it. My hearing problems just make it harder than most. Thank you for reducing it as much as you have.

[@Quackalope]

@@ArtisticWanderings Totally understand :) I hope the newest videos are easier to follow!

[@Magicman1625]

You can play certain modes 2 minitures a side

[@shachna]

It looks like fun, but I wonder how much depth vs complexity there is. Either way, I'd be curious to see if the other characters play significantly different.

[@Quackalope]

It’s not extremely deep or complicated - but it is fun. Each character comes with some unique abilities that change up how you use your team for each challenge - the most complicated you can make it is with the 3x3 draft we did - it’s the best way to play.

[@Y2Jerms]

Do the different color gems matter or can you just mix them up if you want?

[@kingkozz959]

please do this again but on a different set!!!!!

[@rabbitsecurity5296]

Don’t worry the hair can’t hurt you kids

[@gamersgamestorm8291]

Not to be rude, good gameplay and all that, but your only allowed one item

[@kingk221]

I just bought the DC version of this. I think I fucked up and should have got the Harry Potter one lol

[@tedgovostis7351]

OK, seriously, bald dude, learn to say "adjacent" right. Second syllable is "jay" not "juh". It pulls viewers right out of the video when you have a jarring mispronunciation like that. Listen to how your co-host says it. The term comes up way too often in board gaming.

[@Quackalope]

Accents and dialects change from person to person, region to region, country to country - we both mess things up. You will be ok.

[@BrandonGraham]

Sometimes it does take another person to point something out that you yourself have not really thought about. But @Ted Govostis , there are far better ways to do that without sounding like an internet troll. That was such an abrasive way to share your thoughts that your feedback is not likely to be taken seriously.

[@Quackalope]

@@BrandonGraham It is the second time he has made a similar comment about Adjacent - the first time I did not know who he was correcting. "Bald Guy" is just as ambiguous - we are clearly both loosing hair :) - Sadly his sub feed is public and he is not even a subscriber of the channel . . . so . . . whatever. Jan says Adjuhcent and I say Munster :)
