Players play as Max and Max receives special intel, revealing the location of the original meteor impact site and the fact that mutant mudds are still being spawned from it. Max sets out from a secret hideout in the jungle to locate the meteor and destroy it for good.

In Funk of Titans, you take control of Perseus, son of Zeus, and try to protect the Funk.
