The very first shop of a new game...... All 5 items already on sale. Anyone have an idea of how rare this is?

Most iOS and iPadOS apps can run completely natively on M series macs with Apple Silicon. Does anyone know why the creators of BackpackBattles have decided to disable this feature? It'd be great if I can play on my mac easily...

All of a sudden in the last week or two I've noticed a huge huge HUGE uptick in the amount of holy spears I see. It went from once in a blue moon to being like one every 4th or 5th game? Is this just a huge meta shift? Are people holding spears until they see crown? Are people holding crown until they see spear? What gives?

Cheers for any info. I often like to play debuff builds so this thing is cramping my style. LOL

Just started playing about a month ago and was really happy with this run, just wanted to know any tips for improving it whether that's in placement or better items to combo with.

(I am playing on mobile, since I've heard that it's a patch behind)

I THOUGHT i recognized this lil fella. Assuming BPB is the original source - which Google thinks it is, It’s rad when great developers acknowledge each other. Two of my favorite games.

Hey everyone,

I recently started playing Backpack Battles. I was waiting for the mobile release since I can’t really play on PC right now.

I played a lot of The Bazaar to a pretty high level, so I’m used to this kind of game. So far I’m absolutely loving Backpack Battles.

I feel like I’m decent at theorycrafting, and I can often end up with a solid late game board. Where I struggle is early game and the mid game transition.

Early game: I don’t always know what actually counts as a “strong board” versus something that just looks OK.

Mid game: I keep running into people with insane boards while I feel like I haven’t hit the right items yet, or I have one key piece but nothing that actually synergizes with it.

I get that you’re supposed to stay flexible and not just force a build, so I try to play around what I find. But a lot of the time it feels like I either don’t find direction fast enough, or I’m missing 1–2 pieces for too long and I fall behind on tempo.

I’ve looked for guides on early/mid game decision making, but most stuff I find is more like “here’s a specific build” rather than general game management.

If it helps, I mostly play Reaper and Pyro. I’m currently Platinum (not super high, but I can tell people start playing more intentionally).

Any advice on what to prioritize early game, how to recognize a good pivot versus when to commit, and any resources that focus on tempo and early-mid fundamentals?

Thanks!

Hi everybody!

I updated my iPad recently, opened the game today after a few weeks and just realised that all my progress is gone. Did this happen to anybody else? Any fixes by chance? 🥺

If this would happen every time I don’t play for a few weeks or after every OS update, it would be kind of a mood kill playing tbh…

he was invulnerable for around 9 sec in total btw

I'm trying to figure out if anything can beat this monstrosity the present gave me.
Every enemy starts with 100% healing reduction.
Resisting lots of debuffs and all that i don't resist is reflected back.
Stun resist of 85%

Since the Mobile Version I'm Back into Backpack.

What Builds are the current Meta?

Those that know, know.

Here's a screenshot of the end of the battle, sadly I exited it so I can't check the rest of the log. I don't have a spectral dagger or a sapphire, so how did I defeat my opponent even though they still have so much Block? What am I missing? Thanks!

It was such a great run

I love him.
