I've already poured far more time than I expected into Backpack Battles. One of the biggest games of Steam Next Fest so far, I thought I'd check it out quickly last night. Before I knew it, it was midnight, and my friends and I were hyper-optimizing builds for the demo's ranked mode.
At the start of each game of Backpack Battles, you start out as a burgeoning adventurer. In true RPG fashion, you've little in your pack beyond a wooden sword and a four-leaf clover for luck. With the few gold pieces in your pocket, you'll be able to visit a merchant and add various items to your inventory. From there, you'll go out into the world to do battle against other intrepid adventurers.
