Plan your next Funnel Runners session
Our independent guide breaks down Funnel Runners into actionable insights, helping you survive the chaotic storm while maximizing teamwork and resource efficiency. Follow these exercises to refine your approach and adapt to each randomized playthrough.
01 / THE GUIDE
Map Familiarization
Spend the first minutes scanning the environment for stable structures and visible item clusters. Knowing where intact buildings are can save time when the storm escalates.
- Collect nearby vehicle parts before the storm destroys their locations.
- Keep moving to avoid being caught in a sudden gust.
02 / THE GUIDE
Role Assignment
Before the storm intensifies, assign specific duties—one player focuses on scavenging, another monitors weather cues, and a third prepares the van for repairs.
- Watch the sky for visual cues of incoming tornadoes.
- Seek shelter in intact structures while you collect essential items.
03 / THE GUIDE
Weather Tracking
Observe visual and audio cues for approaching tornadoes. Early detection lets you reposition or seek shelter, reducing the chance of being swept away.
- Communicate discovered item locations to teammates promptly.
- Balance scavenging with staying out of the storm’s path.
04 / THE GUIDE
Resource Prioritization
Prioritize collecting fuel and critical vehicle parts first, as these become inaccessible once nearby buildings collapse.
- Assign roles—one player gathers parts while another monitors storm changes.
- Use voice chat or quick messages to coordinate item drops.
05 / THE GUIDE
Co‑op Communication
Maintain clear, concise communication about item locations and storm changes. Quick updates help teammates adjust routes and avoid redundant searches.
- Enable Steam Cloud to keep progress across multiple PCs.
- Check the Achievements list for optional challenges.
