They\u2019re appearing in weird spin-off\u00a0<em>Gears of War<\/em> mobile games and even threatening to star in their own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/movies\/fate-has-cursed-us-with-a-funko-pop-movie-1804247\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">cursed feature film<\/a>. Knowing that, a Funko Pop tabletop game sounds pretty expected. Fortunately, after learning more about <em>Funkoverse<\/em> at NYCC, we\u2019re willing to give it a little more credit.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-video widescreen embed\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LITJE2saRB0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>Funko Pops, above everything else, are about giving customers and quick and cute way to collect little reminders of their favorite pop culture properties. <em>Funkoverse<\/em> brings this spirit into the tabletop realm by almost being the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/games\/disney-cancels-infinity-and-drops-out-of-games-development-1654782\/\"  rel=\"noopener\"><em>Disney Infinity<\/em><\/a>\u00a0of board games. There are common sets of rules. Each board has the same scenarios for different game modes like battling or capturing the flag. But bringing in various new universes changes up the experience substantially.<\/p>\n<p>For starters, while the scenario might be the same, different boards from different worlds feature different layouts to learn. This may favor characters who originate from that universe, like Joker knowing the twisted streets of Gotham City. And speaking of characters, while the creators at Funko Games tried to balance the cast, <em>Funkoverse<\/em> is a bit like a fighting game in terms of the variety of the roster.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-video widescreen embed\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ibQdE02tMoY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>DC Superheroes are great brawlers while Harry Potter and his magic friends cast spells from afar. Meanwhile, Blanche from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/shop\/geek-pick-the-golden-girls-1000-piece-puzzle-1751382\/\"  rel=\"noopener\"><em>Golden Girls<\/em><\/a> is a real flirt and can draw other characters to her. Along with their unique abilities you can customize characters with real, physical items like Harley Quinn\u2019s mallet. Don\u2019t forget, your game pieces are mini Funko Pop toys in their own right.<\/p>\n<p>This starting lineup of Funkoverse sets is pretty modest. Beyond the universes we already mentioned you can also get a <em>Rick and Morty<\/em> set.
