Backpack Brawl — Hero Battles

Could not be happier with my experience with the game overall. There are only two major things that I feel are a big detriment to the game going forward. The biggest one is the unique items. They are incredibly important and yet completely imbalanced with some doing nothing and others carrying games on their own. The biggest issue is that you don’t have access to all of them each run. A re-roll would be great but I feel that most of them should be a lot more build opening than just being individual items. The other thing is how while it is great that each character plays so differently, it feels like each character is hard locked to specific builds without much lateral movement. I think the simplest thing would be to add something like an amulet system somewhere around getting a hero to level ten where you can then get an item to allow you to get other characters that are at level tens items. Could be around legendary rarity so that they are rare. Other than these two critiques the game is great.

This game offers a lot of utility and rogue like components as you set forth on your battles. I have only thoroughly played one character but the others have systems that work well and the synergy for builds is dynamic. Meaning you have many paths to build strong builds and not pigeon holed into one specific build. Only concern I have is that the top rank for each character is not only extremely high but the punishment needed to get to 5000 victory points is insane. This is considering that you need to get at least 13 trophies to advance it really requires amazing luck. Not at all required for anything other than prestige so no point loss on my end. Loving the new updates, any chance on getting an increased lucky roll that costs more? The idea being that late stage, 10 plus, I find my self rolling just to roll with no real benefit. So if there was an option to target a specific group (food, pet, accessories, etc.) would at least provide a chance at getting late game items.

This is an absolutely well done game. It was so good I had to delete it because I was spending just way too much free time playing it. The gameplay is both simple understand and complex enough to keep you going as you try to learn what combinations work best. The balance of skill/strategy/luck seems to be well done. With the right skill/strategy you’ll be winning most matches and +rating on most games. Every so often you might get some bad draws. Sometimes you’ll get super lucky. On top of all that, it is very f2p friendly. With a lot of these games you find out very quickly you’ll need to succumb to micro transactions if you want any hope of keeping up. Or at the very least keeping engaged with the gameplay. But that hasn’t been the case and iv been playing obsessively for quite a while. So far Iv managed to level up the two free characters to 10. As well as upgrading plenty of non-legendary items a fair amount of times all without buying currency. Iv gotten to emerald ranking and the final stage before deciding to take a break. So I can’t speak to anything beyond that, but so far you can 100% progress and keep Up without spending on micro transactions. Surprised this game isn’t more popular. 10/10
