The long-awaited debut of Funko‘s first mobile game is finally here!
Previewed last year at Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC), Funko Pop! Blitz is a match-3 puzzle game from N3TWORK in collaboration with Tic Toc Games. The game features Funko Pop! Vinyl versions of popular characters from numerous brands and franchises, including Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment’s Back to the Future, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Jurassic Park and Jurassic World, along with the Universal Monsters; DreamWorks Animation’s Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, and How to Train Your Dragon; General Mills and Hostess brand mascots; Cloudco’s Care Bears; and original Funko creations from the Fantastik Plastik and Pop! Pets brands.
“We’re excited to offer Funko fans and mobile gamers alike the opportunity to connect with some of their favorite characters and properties in Pop! form,” says Brian Mariotti, CEO, Funko.
Each character features a unique super move that players can use to blast the board and power-up to learn rewards. The super moves are inspired by familiar moments from TV, film, and commercials. New characters and themed events will take place weekly kicking off today with a Jurassic Park week introducing characters including Dr. Ian Malcolm, Dr. John Hammond, Dr. Ellie Sattler, Dennis Nedry, and the Dilophosaurus.
N3TWORK acquired Funko Pop! Blitz last December, following the closure of NBCUniversal’s in-house games publishing business.
