Funbari Spirits features simple controls and plays quite like a 2D fighter despite being 3D. There is a 2 player mode, adventure story mode, mini game mode, and a free play mode along with training mode. The game also has voices from the original anime, as well as colorful cel-shaded graphics. All of the main characters are present as playable characters, along with a few exclusive-to-this-game-only characters.
