Don’t bother packing light in Backpack Battles—the more stuff you lug into these strategic skirmishes, the mightier you’ll be! Pick a character class (like a Mage or Berserker) and unleash the full fury of your overflowing inventory against others in online auto-battles. Between fights, head back to the shop for new treasures. Who needs a sword when you’ve got a ukulele stuffed in there?

What we love: Packing the perfect combo. Everything in your bag activates automatically during combat—the trick is to arrange items to maximize impact. Tuck a poison dagger next to the Reaper’s death scythe and you’ll double the blade’s toxic damage. Sick!

Quick tip: Flip through the recipe guide so you don’t miss out on powerful crafting possibilities. Leather armor isn’t impressive on its own, but combine it with a snowball and you’ll get a cool set of ice armor.

Meet the creator: Indie developer couple Mario Janke and Dorothea Kollhoff—the makers of Furcifer’s Fungeon—started Backpack Battles as an after-hours side project.
