Backpack Hero

Backpack Hero is a turn-based roguelike strategy game about an adventurer who explores procedurally generated dungeons using an item‑organising backpack as the core mechanic.

Players arrange items in a backpack grid - placement affects power or abilities - while battling foes and collecting resources. Dungeons are randomized; players choose from five heroes with distinct playstyles and unlock further progression through a town‑building metagame set in Haversack Hill.

Backpack Hero starts each run with an empty backpack grid that expands over time. The player fits weapons, armor, consumables, and resources into the grid; items may rotate or need adjacency rules (e.g., helmets in top rows). Between runs, the town mode allows resource investment in buildings, research, and recruiting, unlocking new heroes and quests.
