No more throwing you in at the deep end - [b]your journey will begin with the basics[/b]. The game now guides you through the dungeons, gradually unlocking more and more possibilities to fight more and more powerful foes. [b]All the loot will have an impact on your future runs and the town’s development.[/b] Plan your actions well - [b]you can unlock new items using the ones you’ve already found.[/b] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/8ceb8c91993adcc5487b6096aba252f5c5f2173c.png[/img] [h3][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/d8f9ef8445fd88e45f21b12689f012973c0ced75.png[/img] Story Mode[/h3] Meta progression is strongly connected with yet another feature introduced in 1.0 - Story Mode. It comes with [b]a whole new gameplay experience that adds hours of fun![/b] You can [b]discover the lore[/b] and [b]meet new characters[/b] while [b]rebuilding the charming town of Haversack Hill.[/b] Taking things step by step, following the questline, and gradually unlocking new things will help you learn Backpack Hero’s basic mechanics - [b]it’s a great option for both players new to the roguelike world and seasoned backpackers looking to discover the stories behind the characters they know well![/b] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/b5ece1dd058d9616a6339f9f92078ea448ece366.png[/img] [h3]⚠️ We know that not everyone wants to jump into the Story Mode - [b]you can still find the classic gameplay with everything unlocked under the [i]Start Quick Game[/i] option![/b][/h3] [h3][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/6017cf4980763a0aea8c470ea1deebd82464e414.png[/img] Achievements[/h3] Achievement hunters can now begin their quest to complete them all! [b]Unlock 35 achievements[/b] - some of them you’ll unlock by simply playing the game, but some others require a lot of effort! We have ideas for many more, but that’s for later… 🤫 [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/84834012a756d098d0518e3b3e5587085113d33c.png[/img] [h3][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42290630/94d1930e70916a02524fa960c5758666145226a5.png[/img] If you haven’t played in a long while, or you’ve only tried the Demo, there’s even more new stuff![/h3] There are plenty of reasons to jump back into the game now!
