Funk of Titans wants to draw players in with an outlandish, seemingly arbitrary aesthetic that mixes Greek mythology with funk music. Unfortunately, it fails to go all the way with this theme, and ends up a tedious and surprisingly generic auto-runner.
Jowi Meli · Jun 22, 2015 Reviewed on Wii URead full reviewThe game is easy to play and get into, but there’s not much variation in gameplay. New weapons and gear that can be unlocked are fun, but don’t factor in all that much on how the game is played. And while the concept and ideas are fun, Funk of Titans never seems to go the extra mile to make the game a memorable experience. There could have been so much more to the game, but in the end all that’s left is a title that’s fun to play for a few hours, but not really anything beyond that.
Bryan Rose · May 26, 2015 Reviewed on Wii URead full reviewFew levels provide much of a challenge, so breezing through the entirety of the game in a short period of time is more than likely, though for sub-15-buck price, it’s not much of a lost and can be worth it if you’re looking for a quick downloadable fix. But surely this blended concoction has sorely missed the bull's-eye of arcade perfection.
Devin Charles · Jan 24, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full reviewThe reality is that Funk of Titans takes a lazy approach to nearly everything it does. It's a careless effort, and literally everything it has to offer has been done better by most other runners. And, in those other games, there's the added bonus that I don't have to listen to the phrase "Cool Daddy-o!" repeated until my ears bleed.
Chris Carter · Jan 16, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full reviewFunk of Titans is one of the better endless runners out there. While it might seem like an odd choice for an Xbox One game, the button mapping is perfect and the bright button prompts make the QTE boss battles easier to take part in. There’s isn’t a lot of depth here, but combining sword slashing with head-bopping and wall jumping works well. It controls smoothly, and other than the lack of checkpoints and some cheap deaths, it’s fun from beginning to end.
Jeremy Peeples · Jan 12, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full reviewFor almost the entirety of the two and half hours it took me to complete Funk of Titans, I was bored. The world design is awkward, and for a game about music, it lacked a variety of catchy tunes or even appropriate themes. I chuckled a bit at the silly hats and weapons, and some of the final levels showed a spark of life, but Funk of Titans is ultimately an unsatisfying experience.
Miranda Sanchez · Jan 12, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full reviewFunk of Titans acts and feels like a cheap mobile game that was ported over to Xbox One. Coming from the ID@Xbox program allows the game certain lowered expectations, since we should just be happy the developers were allowed the chance to publish their game at all. However, this game does nothing of merit to justify gamers’ attention or interest.
Kyle Hanson · Jan 09, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full reviewWith its simplistic nature and decent soundtrack, I found Funk of Titans refreshing to play. Sure it gets repetitive after a while, but I couldn’t help but keep playing. It has an interesting formula that just works. Of course, it’s not going to blow anyone’s socks off, but it’s not a bad game either. If you’re looking for a fun distraction for about 4 hours and have nine bucks to spare, give it a shot. You may actually have a fun time like I did.
Drew Leachman · Jan 07, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full reviewHowever, Funk of Titans is ultimately better recommended to be played the way that it was initially intended, which is on mobile platforms where it runs well... and in the short kind of play sessions expected on those platforms, through which much of the repetitiveness and flaws will not be quite as apparent.
Rudy Lavaux · Apr 29, 2016 Reviewed on Wii URead full reviewIt isn’t very long, and it isn’t very difficult, but I enjoyed my time with Funk of Titans. It’s a game that doesn’t take itself very seriously at all; it has no problem in subverting the traditional expectations of Zeus, Hercules and Ancient Greek mythology in general. I mean, where else can you wear a Stormtrooper helmet and don a flaming sword? Hitting enemies is met with a 1960’s Batman-esque ‘wham’ and ‘bash’, and the funky music and bright colours generate a nice atmosphere.

About the game
Funk of Titans is a thrilling and addictive game, simple and fun to play but hard to master. You will control Perseus, the son of Zeus and protector of the legendary holy music: the Funk. Run across the ancient greek mythology, risk your life jumping over crazy platforms, collect funk vinyls, beat enemies, wear epic costumes, ride the legendary Pegasus and smash the rap, the pop and the rock of the evil Musical Titans in fierce dance battles. Only one music can survive and the Funk is the music of the gods.
