While the premise is familiar, the execution is different: your inventory, and how you lay things within it, changes how weapons, armor and magic work. Place a bow on the left and a series of arrows directly next to it? When you fire the bow, it fires each arrow and whatever effects they may get from touching. Armor may only be effective depending on where you place it in your inventory (helmets at the top, boots at the bottom), which can be a challenge in the default 3&#215;3 inventory&#8230; but quickly you are able to upgrade, and change the layout how you see fit.<\/p>\n<p>Try <em>Backpack Hero<\/em>&#8216;s demo for free on PC on <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/1970580\/Backpack_Hero\/\">Steam<\/a> and pick it up for $14.
