Backpack Attack: Troll Face Has Strategy, Inventory Management And The Outdated Memes Of 2010s

The title alone might evoke a reaction, depending on your feelings towards those ubiquitous troll face memes. We're talking about Backpack Attack: Troll Face, a new Android game from AppVillage Global (creators of titles like Super Ball Adventure and Satisort).

What's Backpack Attack: Troll Face About?

This game is a curious blend of genres: strategy, tower defense, item crafting, and action-packed combat, all featuring those infamous troll faces that once ruled the internet. Prepare for a nostalgic (or perhaps irritating) blast from the past as early 2010s memes make a comeback.

You'll traverse diverse environments – forests, deserts, snowy mountains – collecting unusual tools and treasures. Your objective? Craft and upgrade weapons, carefully manage your limited backpack space, and repel waves of enemies.

The gameplay cleverly combines inventory management with weapon and armor upgrades, adding depth and strategic challenge. Different enemy types and bosses further enhance the tactical element. However, the core mechanics aren't entirely novel, and the persistent troll face theme may not appeal to everyone.

Will You Give It a Try?

Backpack Attack: Troll Face uniquely blends strategy and humor, a combination that may or may not resonate with you. If resource management, gear upgrades, and varied battle environments sound appealing, this free-to-play game (with optional in-app purchases) deserves consideration. Download it from the Google Play Store.
