Backpack Attack: Troll Face Revives 2010s Memes in Strategic Gameplay

The title of this new Android game might spark nostalgia or a sigh, depending on your take on the iconic troll face memes from the internet’s past. It’s Backpack Attack: Troll Face by AppVillage Global, the studio behind titles like Super Ball Adventure and Satisort.

What Is Backpack Attack: Troll Face?

This game mixes strategy, tower defense, item crafting, and action-packed combat, all infused with the troll-faced characters that once flooded social media. The early 2010s memes make a bold return in Backpack Attack: Troll Face, for better or worse.

You’ll navigate diverse settings like forests, deserts, and snowy peaks, collecting quirky items and treasures. Your goal is to craft and enhance weapons, manage limited backpack space, and fend off enemy waves.

Balancing inventory management with weapon and armor upgrades keeps the gameplay dynamic, while varied enemies and bosses introduce strategic depth. Still, the concept isn’t groundbreaking, and the troll face theme may not appeal to everyone.

Is It Worth Playing?

Backpack Attack: Troll Face blends strategy and humor in a way that may click with some players. If you enjoy resource management, gear upgrades, and battling through diverse landscapes, it could be worth a try.

The game’s strength lies in its mix of familiar mechanics and surprising twists. It’s free to play with optional in-app purchases. Download it from the Google Play Store to see if it suits you.
