Funko Fusion Reviews
Funko Fusion is a brilliant take on the tried-and-true LEGO formula, but for a slightly older audience. The combat is fun, the humour is on point and the selection of characters is impressive. But limited multiplayer options and rough technical shortcomings keep it from reaching it's true potential. With time, it can absolutely get better, but for now, I'm willing to give 10:10 more time to cook, they're definitely onto something.
Funko Fusion is ultimately boring, with an overly long mission structure, bland gameplay elements, and a story that comes across as pointless as to why this mixture of characters is interacting.
By featuring a wide array of beloved franchises and constantly adding mechanics, Funko Fusion stays fresh throughout.
Funko Fusion is unfortunately not the joyous celebration of pip culture it should be, thanks to frustrating enemies and lots of dull levels.
Funko Fusion repeats mechanics over and over again in a game offer that leaves many gaps to fill. A proposal that presents worlds more pampered than others and that leaves us with the feeling that between so much shooting and hitting there was room for more. For much more

Funko Fusion’s dull combat and repetitive missions means that just like your Funko Pop collection, it’s probably best left on the shelf.
Funko Fusion offers a unique blend of popular franchises, all represented by Funko Pop figures. The game has a fun concept that appeals to fans of various IPs, allowing you to explore different worlds and collect items along the way. However, it does struggle with some issues, for example, missions can lack variety, leading to encounters with the same enemies over and over again, and the odd bug here and there can be frustrating.
Funko Fusion is like that limited edition Funko Pop figure you buy with all your hopes up: full of potential, but not without its flaws. It has all the ingredients to be a feast for fans: Beloved franchises, iconic characters, a fun premise, gameplay reminiscent of the best moments from LEGO games.

Funko Fusion combines popular franchises into a colourful adventure featuring Funko Pop figures. You set out on a quest to retrieve Freddy Funko’s stolen crown pieces across various themed worlds. While the game offers enjoyable exploration and charming visuals, it suffers from repetitive combat and technical issues, such as bugs and mission design flaws. Despite these shortcomings, there is potential for improvement through updates, making it a worthwhile experience for fans of the franchises involved.
The combat feels awkward; the game is buggy, and filled with abrupt cutscene transitions. At the end of the day, we’re left asking, ‘Who is this for?’ Children don’t care about Battlestar Galactica and The Thing, and adults won’t love the boring, simplistic gameplay loop.
Funko Fusion's biggest success is how well it matches the vibe of Funko's uber-popular line of vinyl figures as a whole – joyless, soulless representations of beloved franchises that capture almost none of the charm of the source material. The most culturally-relevant thing here might be the collectible KFC buckets.
I really wanted to like Funko Fusion, but with repetitive gameplay, outdated franchises, and a buggy experience, it's hard to see who this game is truly for.

Funko Fusion feels like it actively goes out of its way to ensure you don't have fun. Despite Funko choosing a few fun properties and characters to translate to a video game, a plethora of bugs, clunky gameplay, and frustrating moments continuously hamper your ability to ever enjoy the moment. I believe there may be a good game hidden deep within Funko Fusion, but it is buried under so many issues that I doubt many players will have the patience to find it. The lack of co-op upon launch is truly baffling, as that may have been the one thing to save this experience. At minimum, I'd wait until co-op is released and a few updates have been made before checking Funko Fusion out.
Funko Fusion had enormous potential. The numerous licences, coupled with the experience of the former Traveller's Tales developers, promised to deliver a game that was both impressive and above all fun. However, the current technical problems and not-so-satisfying gameplay relegated it to oblivion, justifying its purchase only to those who are strong fans of the brands included in the work.

The Funko Pop phenomenon finally arrives in the world of videogames and, taking its cue from LEGO titles, tries to reach a similar audience with simple and immediate gameplay. Unfortunately the result is not what was hoped for due to some questionable design choices and several small bugs that spoil rhythm and enjoyment. Also almost totally missing is the 'collectibles factor' that we hoped would be a staple of this production.

While it is almost miraculous that many of the properties in this game are represented in video game form, Funko Fusion is missing a sense of fun or satisfaction. With very little explanation of the game's mechanics, the player is left to wander from world to world, shooting endless waves of enemies, fiddling around with obtuse puzzles, pondering the universe and the point of it all.
Funko Fusion is a slog to play. The puzzles are uninteresting, and the third-person shooting is tedious. It uses its mature movie franchises in strange ways, adding glood and violence to old-school slapstick comedy, creating a tonal mess.
Funko Fusion could have been something fun! A wacky adventure mixing together different franchises and worlds. Instead, its a boring, annoying, barely functional third-person action game starring ugly Funko Pops solving bad puzzles and fighting the same 10 enemies over and over again with guns and laser pistols. Don’t play Funko Fusion. Save your money, buy some pizza, and watch one of the movies included in this collection instead. It will be much more enjoyable and you won’t have to restart the movie five times to reach the end.
Funko Fusion has a lot of the fundamentals down, with large, varied environments, destructible objects, different character loadouts to suit various play styles and tastes, a slew of hidden collectibles to gather, and tons of playable characters to unlock. But, it doesn’t reach its full potential, with awkward weapon aiming and a “try it and see” mentality that doesn’t quite work in a game with this much going on.
Funko Fusion is an unexpectedly delightful game that combines quirky aesthetics, nostalgic references, and engaging gameplay. While it has a few technical hiccups and can be repetitive at times, the fun factor outweighs the flaws. Whether you’re a fan of the franchises or just looking for a lighthearted adventure, Funko Fusion is a refreshing trip down memory lane with enough new mechanics to keep things interesting. Whether you’re a fan of the franchises represented or just looking for a lighthearted adventure, Funko Fusion is worth checking out, especially if you’re looking for a break from more serious titles.
