Backpack Hero

Backpack Hero is an inventory-management roguelike in which you collect items, arrange them in your backpack and fight your way through dangerous areas. Where you place each item affects its power, so organizing your bag is central to building your strategy. You can explore ancient dungeons, caves, swamps and other locations, meet friends and battle enemies.

Items and combat

The game has over 800 distinct items with powers and synergies to experiment with, and more than 100 enemies whose attack patterns you can learn. Each run takes you through randomly generated levels, with unpredictable items, layouts, events and challenges in endless dungeons. You can also choose among five heroes, each offering a different play style.

Restore Haversack Hill

Between expeditions, use the resources you gather to rebuild your hometown of Haversack Hill. Develop it into an appealing and efficient hamlet to attract residents, buy and sell items, conduct research, and unlock heroes, challenges and quests. Rebuilding the village helps restore the world of Orderia and rescue the animals who live there.

Game modes

You can play standalone runs or follow the full adventure in Story Mode, which includes meta progression. The game also supports community-created mods.
