This new Android game, Backpack Attack: Troll Face by AppVillage Global (creators of Super Ball Adventure and Satisort), might evoke a familiar feeling, depending on your opinion of those ubiquitous troll face memes. Prepare for a nostalgic (or perhaps irritating) trip back to the early 2010s internet.

What's Backpack Attack: Troll Face All About?

The game is a mixed bag: strategy, tower defense, item crafting, combat, and, of course, troll faces. Players navigate diverse environments – forests, deserts, snowy peaks – collecting unusual tools and treasures. The core gameplay loop involves crafting and upgrading weapons, managing limited backpack space, and battling waves of enemies.

Balancing inventory management with weapon and armor upgrades provides a degree of engagement. Varied enemies and bosses introduce strategic elements to the combat. However, the gameplay mechanics aren't groundbreaking, and the inclusion of troll faces may be a turn-off for some.

Worth a Try?

Backpack Attack: Troll Face blends strategy and humor, appealing to players who enjoy resource management, gear upgrades, and varied battle environments. The game's unique selling point is its blend of familiar mechanics and the unexpected (and potentially unwelcome) addition of troll face characters. It's free-to-play with optional in-app purchases. Download it from the Google Play Store.
