Backpack Attack: Troll Face Has Strategy, Inventory Management And The Outdated Memes Of 2010s

This new Android game's title might evoke a reaction depending on your feelings towards those ubiquitous troll faces from the internet's meme past. It's called Backpack Attack: Troll Face, from AppVillage Global, the studio behind titles like Super Ball Adventure and Satisort.

What's Backpack Attack: Troll Face All About?

The game's a mixed bag: strategy, tower defense, crafting, action-packed combat, and, yes, those troll-face characters that once flooded your social media. It's a nostalgic blast from the early 2010s internet meme scene, for better or worse.

Players navigate diverse environments—forests, deserts, snowy peaks—collecting unusual tools and treasures. The core gameplay loop involves crafting and upgrading weapons, carefully managing limited backpack space, and repelling waves of enemies.

The combination of inventory management, weapon/armor upgrades, and varied enemies/bosses keeps things interesting, adding a strategic element to the battles. However, the core mechanics aren't groundbreaking, and the troll face theme might be a turn-off for some.

Worth a Try?

Backpack Attack: Troll Face blends strategy and humor, an approach that will appeal to some players more than others. If you enjoy resource management, gear upgrades, and diverse battle environments, it's worth checking out.

Its unique blend of familiar mechanics and unexpected twists is a strong point. The game is free-to-play with optional in-app purchases. Download it from the Google Play Store.
