BARDA: Backpack Roguelike

In BARDA, it won't be your sword that saves you. It's how you pack your bag. But hunger, fatigue and madness will take up space! Do your best as you climb an ever-changing mountain to spread the ashes of your grandfather, improve your base camp, and try again.

From the Steam store

Help Thȫmi reach the mountain’s summit and honor the final promise he made to his grandpa: to scatter his ashes to the wind from the highest peak of the highest mountain.

To reach the top, Thȫmi must gather tools and resources at every stop along his journey. But space is limited, and inventory management is key to overcoming the challenges ahead. With over 140 unique items of different sizes and effects, carefully organize your backpack and decide what is worth carrying to survive the climb.

As Thȫmi gathers new tools and makes his way toward the summit, he'll journey through breathtaking landscapes—from lush jungles and raging volcanoes to frozen mountain passes. Though the path is a lonely one, friendly mountain dwellers can offer valuable services and assistance along the way.

Throughout the ascent, hunger, fatigue, and madness will constantly affect both Thȫmi and the items in his backpack. Massive dragons, terrifying trolls, and sneaky goblins will stand in his way. Fortunately, combat isn't the only solution. Use your items wisely as they may be the key to your survival.

Each expedition unlocks new items, tools, and companions to aid future climbs. The journey doesn't end once your grandpa's wish has been fulfilled. No two ascents are the same, and neither is Thȫmi.
