A PvP auto-battler built on inventory Tetris. Buy items, arrange them well, then watch them fight.

Backpack Battles is a PvP auto-battler where your whole build lives inside a backpack. Between rounds you buy items from a shop and fit them into your bag, and where each one goes matters as much as what you bought. Items come in different shapes and sizes, and many get stronger from what sits next to them. Some combine into better gear, so you can brew potions, craft weapons or hatch a pet dragon. When the round starts, your backpack fights an opponent's backpack on its own and you watch how it goes. Your opponents are builds made by other players, and you can see what they came up with and plan a counter. There are more than 500 items and 7 classes with 5 subclasses each, so you might go for heavy crits, poison over time, or squirrels. Modes include unranked play with no timers, ranked matches that still let you take your time, custom rules for gold and health, and live lobbies with a timer for playing friends or streamers. It's made by PlayWithFurcifer and fully released on Steam. It suits anyone who likes inventory puzzles and theorycrafting builds.
