UBFunkeys are a set of 24 highly collectible (and highly addictive) characters that build into a complete population, with three members of 8 tribes to buy. And, although it would be fine and dandy if that was all to report, there's so much more besides. For, on connecting a UBFunkey to its hub, and the hub to your PC, each UBFunkey opens-up a whole immersive universe to discover and explore (UB Funkey Hub available separately - UB Funkeys Starter Kit).

But Funkeytown needs your assistance if it's to avoid a descent into chaos. Your task is to re-establish order and decency by completing tasks, avoiding nasties and collecting crystals right across the virtual town.

But here's the trick. The more you collect, the more you can explore, particularly if you've got one of the rarer UBFunkeys out there, which grant you access to some rather fine and exclusive content by unlocking important new zones. What's more exciting though, is that you can't order a specific Funkey Character - it's completely random which Funkey you'll receive, making it even more of a challenge to complete your set (There are currently 3 Funkeys in each Tribe). Some are also rarer than others!

Truly spiffing. And, dare I say it, truly funky.

Here's a bit more on the Glub Tribe:

The Glub are extremely agile and elegant when submerged but on land are like...well, a fish out of water. The Glub speak in a strange bubbling slurping way that most Funkeys find difficult to understand. But oddly enough, the Glub have the most beautiful singing voices. All their speech difficulties go away when they sing. They perform in the great Funkey Hall, always sing the Funkey anthem "We Want the Funk", before sporting events and, of course, at Parliament. Despite their awkwardness on land, the Glub waddle around with their noses in the air and act like big superstars. They are the royalty of all Funkey celebrities and they act like it.
