The gameplay of Funtasia is characterized by its simplistic and repetitive mechanics, requiring players to frequently upgrade their vehicles through repeated level attempts. While the game features appealing art and music, many reviewers found the gameplay to be dull and lacking in responsiveness, making it difficult to recommend despite its interesting concepts and varied terrain navigation. Overall, it offers a chill experience for casual play but may not satisfy those seeking more engaging gameplay.
“Fun little game for a few evenings, with its nice art style, music, and chill gameplay.”
“You basically overcome obstacles in the road by collecting points and upgrading your car, improving overall physics and car response. Once you clear the track, you must defeat the boss, which has different mechanics.”
“Given the game's battery mechanic, Funtasia is a runner with different stages having different vehicles to navigate varying terrain, think 2D Spintires, which sounds really cool.”
“The gameplay is beyond simple, to the point where you only occasionally need to let go of the accelerator or hit any other button, but you'll still have to repeat each level many times to upgrade your car enough that it's physically possible.”
“This game has amazing art and decent music, but the gameplay is just too repetitive and boring.”
“I cannot really recommend the gameplay.”

The music in the game is generally described as decent to awesome, complementing its nice art style and chill gameplay. However, some players find the opening menu's volume excessively loud and have opted to mute the game's audio to enjoy their own background noise. Overall, while the soundtrack is appreciated, it does not fully compensate for the repetitive gameplay.

“Simple but interesting mechanics and awesome soundtrack.”
“This game has amazing art and kind of decent music.”
“I've also muted the game's music and sound effects so I can play my own background noise, but that doesn't stop the game's opening menu from being deafeningly loud before getting into the actual game.”

Players enjoy the grinding aspect of powering up vehicles but feel that the amount of grinding required is excessive. They suggest that a universal value for all races could improve the farming experience, making it more efficient and enjoyable.
“I understand the need to power up the vehicles, and I enjoy grinding, but it would have been more acceptable if it wasn't so excessive. Alternatively, having a universal value for all races to farm better and faster would have improved the experience.”
