Fix up your van with a bunch of your best pals and escape an onslaught of tornados in survival co-op game Funnel Runners
Funnel Runners is an online cooperative survival game centered around humanity’s primal fear of natural disasters, particularly tornadoes. In the game, players find themselves in an average American suburban setting facing off against massive tornadoes, with a group of up to eight total players working together for survival.
The core gameplay mechanic revolves around repairing a van, which serves as the primary means of escape from the advancing tornado threat. This cooperative focus requires players to collaborate and coordinate their efforts, combining their skills to complete repairs and flee from the natural disaster before it’s too late.
The game’s thematic foundation draws from the genuine terror that natural disasters inspire—the destructive power of tornadoes that can pick up vehicles and other substantial objects with ease. This visceral threat creates a high-stakes survival experience where players must work under pressure as environmental hazards bear down on them. By grounding gameplay in this universal fear and creating scenarios where cooperation is essential for survival, Funnel Runners aims to deliver both an engaging cooperative experience and an emotionally resonant narrative centered on natural disaster survival.
