Funnel Runners: Skull Locations, Terminals & Trophy Guide
Survive the vortex. Locate all 8 hidden Skulls, decrypt map-wide Terminal consoles, call emergency evac beacons, and master Category 5 supercell extractions with our complete database.
Funnel Runners Gameplay Overview & Extraction Mechanics
Welcome to the premier community database for Funnel Runners. Released onto Steam Early Access in July 2026, Funnel Runners combines intense first-person mobility platforming with punishing extraction survival. Squads of up to four players drop into sprawling disaster zones as escalating supercell tornadoes ravage the landscape. The environment escalates dynamically from calm Category 1 winds to catastrophic Category 5 vortexes that rip buildings from their foundations.
To progress, squads must locate hidden Skulls, hack computer Terminal consoles to reveal extraction coordinates, and anchor themselves against hurricane gusts. Below, you will find interactive coordinate tools, puzzle solutions, and our complete 100% trophy roadmap.
All 8 Funnel Runners Skull Locations & Coordinates
Skulls represent the most valuable permanent relics in Funnel Runners. Each skull is hidden behind specific environmental barriers or requires braving lethal wind conditions. For instance, the legendary Vortex Eye Skull can only be collected by launching directly into the center of a Category 5 supercell with a thermal glider.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Where are all the Skull locations in Funnel Runners?
There are 8 collectible Skulls distributed across Sectors A through G and Bunker 101. Some (like the Vortex Eye Skull) require specific high-category storm phases (Cat-5) or unlocking secret bunker vaults using Terminal red keycards.
What are Terminal consoles and how do you use them?
Terminals are interactive computer stations scattered across the map. Successfully hacking them unlocks storm radar tracking, early evacuation VTOL beacons, air supply refills, and red security keycards required for Bunker 101.
How does the storm extraction mechanic work in Funnel Runners?
Each match features an escalating supercell tornado scaling from Category 1 to Category 5 over 20 minutes. As winds intensify, low ground becomes unlivable. Players must gather loot, reach designated extraction points or call emergency pods via Terminals, and extract before the funnel cloud consumes the sector.
Can you keep loot if you die in Funnel Runners?
No. Dying to debris or wind suction drops your rucksack on the ground. However, collectibles like Skulls and permanently unlocked craft blueprints banked at extraction pods are saved to your account progress.
