Backpack Hero is the inventory management roguelike! Collect rare items, organize your bag, and vanquish your foes! It isn't just about what you carry, but how you organize items within your bag! Their placement has huge effects on their power! You can move items to increase their power! There's more to Backpack Hero than just organizing your backpack. You explore ancient dungeons, caves, swamps, and more! Don't get lost! When you aren't putting your life in danger, you will use the resources you have gathered to upgrade your town! By organizing the perfect town, you will restore the world of Orderia and rescue the animals who live there! Your progress in the overworld unlocks new content but it won't give you any unfair advantages on a trip into the dungeons.

Saw that on the Nintendo indie showcase. It looks cool. Is it? Has someone here played it?

I wouldn't say no to a good deckbuilder kind of thing with decent replayability.

I play it on Steam and the items, combos, and repeatable playability were good. I think there were 4-6 characters and each have their own playstyle. Highly recommend.

Well I bought it and did a few runs already, unlocked magic, archery, a few buildings, a second area. And at this point, I agree, it is pretty good.

It clearly has very slay the spire-like mechanics with called enemy attacks and very similar stats and effects, but with the crazy item interactions it plays almost like a puzzle game, and that works very well.
