Backpack Simulator

"Backpack Simulator? Did you run that by a focus group?"

~My Imaginary Boss, probably

In this RPG, you were reborn in a mythical fantasy world of your dreams... as a backpack. Worst yet, your Adventurer is a kleptomaniac and a hoarder. Your only hope of seeing the Goddess again is to keep your Adventurer alive by managing their inventory and making sure that they don't run out of space.

"Has a good sense of humor, I guess."

~Imaginary Focus Group, probably

As a sentient backpack, you control all the items that are inside of you. You can circle locations and encounters on your map to guide your Adventurer. Each monster/encounter is unique with varying degrees of difficulty and strategy. Some monsters require more preparation and certain buffs/items. However, with each monster defeated your kleptomaniac Adventurer will take all the loot... and the sticks... and the nails... You will need to craft and combine these items to keep your storage low and your Adventurer unencumbered.
