About the Game

YOUR BACKPACK IS YOUR BUILD

Explore first-person, grid-based dungeons, build your backpack, and watch your loadout come to life in this backpack auto-battler. Every run is about smart item placement, trait synergies, and knowing when to push forward or escape. Choose weapons and support items, then fit them into limited space to create a build that works together.

EXPLORE DUNGEONS

Move through first-person, grid-based floors filled with enemies, treasure, and other discoveries. Decide how far to push each run before heading for the exit.

AUTO-COMBAT ENCOUNTERS

Engage enemies as you explore, then watch your backpack build go to work. Your items charge and attack automatically, with every fight shaped by your placement choices, trait synergies, and build decisions.

GROW YOUR SYNDICATE

Return to your hideout between runs to unlock new items, characters, and trophies. Expand your options and shape future runs by unlocking new possibilities.
